[00:00:00] So, if you're not sure whether you want to get a 77 or an 85 in TV, that 8 in jump, it is actually a pretty big jump and it comes with some real trade-offs. Let's take a look at that. So, first, here's our 77in screen and here's the 85 in screen. Watch when we do the overlay. When we overlay that 75 on the 85 in TV, [00:00:22] you see that the 85 in TV is 22% more viewing area than the 77 in. And that is a big difference, especially when we compare them side by side here. Note when you move up to that 85 inch TV, it is a much heavier TV. It's also wider, so you need to make sure that it's going to work in your space. And the box is bigger, so you're going to have to think [00:00:42] about transport. In this case, both are pretty big. If you can get free delivery, I really recommend that. Here's a pricing detail that actually surprises a lot of people, though. In many TV lineups, that 77in model, they're more premium TVs. This means they have better panel technology, higher-end processing, and more advanced [00:01:02] features. Because of that, you may actually see some 77in TVs cost more or as much as than these 85-in models. That's because there are more mid-range and entry-level options in the 85 in range. So, the decision really isn't just about size. It's also about what type of TV you're buying and what you [00:01:22] want that TV to do for you.
