With the latest developments in Smart TV technology, watching a sports match from the comfort of your own home is almost as good as the real thing. With enhanced quality and additional features, Smart TVs are the way forward for watching sports at home. Keep reading to hear our advice for choosing the perfect 4k Smart TV to enhance your watching experience.
What TV Features are Good for Watching Sports?
If you are looking to purchase a TV that will give you the ultimate TV watching experience, then you might want to consider selecting one that has the following features.
4K Resolution: Choosing a TV with 4k resolution means that you’re getting four times the pixel count of a standard HD TV, meaning more detail, richer colours, and a crisper picture overall. You’ll be able to see every tackle, goal, and penalty up close and personal. Purchasing a 4k TV doesn’t have to break the bank either, at Electronic World we have a range of high-quality 4k TVs to suit all different budgets. Samsung generally dominate the 4k industry, so checking out our selection of Samsung 4k TV deals might be a good place to start in your search for the perfect TV.
HDR and High Refresh Rates: To watch your favourite sports from home, you might want to look for a TV that uses HDR picture. HDR, or high dynamic range makes the colours of your screen appear brighter, which is especially useful for sports where you need to be able to see the colours and uniforms of the teams. Picking a TV with high refresh rates, typically over 120Hz are helpful when watching sports, as they help with reducing motion blur and provide better video quality. When you are watching something like football or rugby, having high refresh rates means that you can see every movement clearly, improving your viewing experience.
What is the Best Screen Size for Watching Sports?
When picking a screen size for watching sports, in general, a bigger screen size is better. Using our website, you can easily filter your search of our 4k TVs by screen size, so take a look at our 75” screens if you really want to recreate the stadium atmosphere at home. Selecting a larger TV is also handy for having friends over to watch your chosen sports event – no one will be arguing over the best view of the TV! In addition, by choosing a larger screen size for your TV, you will experience benefits beyond just watching sports, like when you want to recreate an at-home private cinema or even improve your gaming experience. It’s now easier than ever to become the owner of a large TV screen with our Cheap TV deals, where we have a range of affordable large screen TVs on offer.
Remember to consider where your TV will be placed, as you don’t want the TV to completely dominate the room you are in. Consider a TV between 46”and 51” if you are working with a smaller space, as screens of this size can still provide an immersive experience. You should also consider whether you are able to mount a TV with a larger screen, as they are typically heavier than standard TV sizes. You want to make sure that there is space and sufficient support for your TV before deciding to purchase.
What audio quality is the Best for Watching Sports?
Whilst it may not seem like as much of an important factor, choosing a TV with good audio quality can help transport you to the matchday atmosphere, hearing every chant, whistle blow and cheer from the match. For a TV with high audio quality, look for those that have an audio power output of at least 20 watts, or have a built-in sound technology like Dolby Digital Plus or surround sound. Some Smart TVs offer different sound modes, like movie or sports mode, allowing you to tailor your viewing experience to sports in particular.
If you decide to purchase a TV with a bigger screen, they also can have advanced audio features and more space for better speakers. However, audio quality can always be improved using external sound systems and speakers, so even with a smaller screen you have the opportunity to improve the sound system on your TV.
Why are Smart TVs good for watching sports?
The main perk of Smart TVs is that they are multifunctional, meaning that you not only are able to watch your favourite TV shows in high quality, but can also search the internet, use your favourite streaming services, and browse social media. Some Smart TVs are especially suited to watching sports, including live sports features like real-time stats, voice control, and smart assistants, allowing you to set reminders so that you don’t miss the all-important games.
If you are conflicted between matches that are on at the same time, some Smart TVs offer split screen options so you can even watch two games at once! Smart TVs can often connect to lighting systems, like Phillips Hue, allowing you to set the ambience for the match depending on the time of day.
