Does size of the screen really matter?

Let’s admit most of the Indians like to have big screen so that they get the experience of watching movie in a theatre just by sitting on their home couch. However, in order to have big size TV one has to live in big sized house too. In most of the big cities like Delhi, Mumbai and Bangalore people stay in either 1 BHK to 3 BHK accommodation where space is really a constraint. However, that does not stop people buying any 50” TV where they can barely manage the viewing distance between one to two meters. So long TVs were available in picture tubes people used to prefer mostly 20” or 21” screen size. The 25” screen size for upper middle class family because of its price aspect.

However, since LED/LCD TVs has come in the market the aspiration of people for size has suddenly increased. The resolution of this new generation TV is must better as compared to picture tube panels and hence large screen TV is now preferable by many buyers. The only thing matters is budget. Small screen are preferred less.
