85 vs 100 Inch TV Comparison Tool

[00:00:00] If you're deciding between an 85-in TV and a 100-in TV, that jump is much bigger than it sounds, and there are a few things you should see before buying. TV size usually is the first decision people make, but what you buy should also depend on things like viewing distance and the features you'll actually use. But here's an 85 in screen. Here's a 100in screen side by [00:00:22] side. Now, watch when I do the overlay. When I overlay that 85 inch on the 100 inch, that's a 38% difference in viewing area. And that completely changes how immersive your viewing experience feels. That extra size can change the options you'll realistically have as well.

But once you move up to 100 in, OLED options aren't as common. So picture quality trade-offs, they become part of your decision. There's also a major price jump when you go up to 100 in. It's not a small step up. So, that's important to be ready for [00:01:02] before you go out and buy. Finally, seating distance becomes critical at this scale.
