You may have seen our infographic which briefly explains Which TV Type is Best for You but, in this series of blogs, we go into greater detail about why our suggestions will benefit your experience so that you can fully understand why and how to make the most of your new TV.
TV in a Bedroom
A TV in your bedroom is likely to be far away from your eyes, especially if you plan to watch from bed. This means that you need to prioritise a medium size screen to fill your field of view appropriately.
With the screen being far away, you don’t have to worry about purchasing the best resolution quality on the market, but you might want to think about paying extra for OLED technology to achieve deep and rich colours that you’ll still enjoy from a distance. We can help you to source a cheap OLED TV for your bedroom, so get in touch with us if you’re ready to make a purchase.
You may also want to consider a surround sound system if you love a bit of telly in bed, or a connected cheap smart TV with a voice-controlled assistant so that you won’t have to worry so much if you tiredly misplace the remote.
When You Have Limited Space
If you live in the city or practice minimalism, then you might be working with limited space, which means that you have to think quite seriously about balancing the size of your television against the rest of your décor, as well as which features you are going to prioritise if you need to skimp on the size.
If you’re working with a small room, then it is very important that you measure the space you have available before you purchase your television; you don’t want to have to return the TV of your dreams because it was too big in the end.
If you are currently using a TV table but want to upgrade the size of your television, you might find that rearranging your living space so that you can wall-mount your new TV is the best option. You might also find that using your walls will allow you to purchase a larger TV without sacrificing floor space.
It might be that you don’t really need a bigger screen, depending on what resolution screen you’re hoping to buy. The recommended viewing distance changes depending on the resolution and the size of the screen, so you might find that you need to sit further away from a 720p display than a 4K one.

Best TV for the Kids
We all know that children love TVs too; through TV they can learn more about the world, stay up to date with popular shows and play their favourite games; however, young children don’t need a luxury 50-inch television to do all that.
A television for a children’s room should be fairly small to encourage them to enjoy a range of hobbies. Young children will be amazed by the capabilities of a 3D TV, whereas teenagers will appreciate a smart TV that keeps them connected. If your children enjoy playing virtual games and you’re not sure which TV would suit them best, you should read Part 1 of this series.
