[Solved] 32 Smart TV for Bedroom (10 m2) Recommendations: Viewing Distance, Wall Mounting, Sunlight

1. How big is the room in which the TV is to be located? - approx. 10 m2 (bedroom)
2. How far are we from the TV screen? - 2 - 3 m
3. How many people sit in front of the TV? - 2-4 (including 2 children)
4. Are we sitting in front of the screen or also sideways to the screen? Straight
5. Should the TV stand or should it hang? - hanging on the wall
6. How does the sun shine in the room? - a window opposite the TV, but I have blackout blinds so it shouldn't be a problem. Even with the sun exposed, the sun will never shine directly on the TV
7. What kind of TV do you currently have? - Some old Panasonic 28 "cathode ray tube. Not turned on recently, I prefer a laptop or a 22" monitor.
8. What do we want the TV to have? - smart TV or similar solution, wifi is not necessary, because the router is close, but it will be a nice addition
9. What signal will be connected to the TV? - mainly terrestrial TV + satellite, maybe one day cable TV.
10. What devices? - definitely a hard drive / flash drive, a laptop must be wireless
11. How many hours a day is the TV set to work? - little 1-2, sometimes in the evening some movie "to the pillow"
12. Does it happen that you watch only one program for several hours? - rather rarely
13. What kind of programs do you watch the most? - some movie, fairy tales for children, nature science, sometimes a cabaret
14. Are you going to surf the internet? - probably not, I did not do it on TV, rather only movies from the Internet
15. Are you going to play games - if so, how many% a day? - it is not my priority. I will definitely want to test eg Wiedzmin on something bigger than a 22 "monitor. If it doesn't work, I won't cry.
16. Brand Preference? - rather branded, because the wife is "allergic" to unbranded. I like experiences, but it's mainly my wife who watches TV. Besides, I don't. My colleagues from the room at work mainly have Samsung, I wonder where the fashion comes from. I also have 2 slightly older Samsung phones (A5 and J3 - my and my wife's previous one). When there will be Samsung TV, I will definitely test whether it can be used somehow.
17. Size preferences? - 32 "because I have a maximum width of 83-84 cm on the wall. I will buy something bigger for the guest room.
18. What annoys you in TV sets? - I don't know, slow channel switching (but it's a matter of the tuner)
19. Do you watch more in the evenings or during the day? - more in the evening
20. To what maximum amount do you plan to purchase? - 1000-1500. I can do more if the difference is adequate to the price
21. How often do you replace televisions at home? - Very rare, last one
the change was perhaps over 10 years ago
22. Do you use internet applications often? - definitely YouTube, Showmax, Netflix, CDA, sites with cartoons for children and the like

The TV is for the bedroom, to play a movie in the evening, sometimes a fairy tale for children. I will definitely connect a disk or USB flash drive to it. Certainly too
I want to be able to play movies from the Internet. I would like to be able to connect my laptop wirelessly (lenovo yoga 500). I have a router nearby
so I can pull the cable, but if there is Wifi, it will also be a nice addition (it seems that most of them already have)

I wonder if I absolutely need Full HD? It seems to me that under these conditions, the difference may be minimal.
I was wondering about:
Samsung UE32M5622
Samsung UE32M5602
Philips 32PFS5823 / 12
Toshiba 32L3733DG
I do not know how these Samsung differ.
I do not really understandwhy Samsung are about PLN 300-400 more expensive than Philips, although "on paper" weighs better.

If I give up full hd, maybe:
Sharp LC-32HI5432E
Sharp LC-32HG5242E
Panasonic TX-32ES400E
Philips 32PHS5301 / 12

In my opinion, the screen is too small for the distance, it's a waste of health and eyes.

Could you explain how the screen size affects health?

In this price range, there is nothing better than Samsung's last year's M55 / 56 series.
VA matrices, high cobtrast, good blackness, image fluidizers (working! )

Can you elaborate on the topic? Because my wife is very concerned about eye health, especially in children. I myself began to wonder whether I should rearrange the bedroom so that it would fit 40 ". I read the indicated article, but I found no information related to the topic of tv and distance, but only:

Quote:

Causes:
Infectious agents or demyelinating processes, i.e. damage to the nerve sheath.

Perhaps this is another marketing ploy to squeeze people into larger televisions.

I read again:

and I don't think I understand something.
According to these rules, depending on the diagonal distance and screen resolution, if you want to watch the TV from a distance of 2-3m (the bed itself is 2m long in the bedroom), I should choose between 37 and 50 "TV, with Redy HD resolution. For Full HD it is 50 -70 ". Which in the bedroom seems a bit over the top (but maybe I misunderstood something). At 4k, the diagonal sizes start with the area of 90 ". Which in a 10m2 bedroom will probably look strange According to the above information, buying a TV with worse resolution should be better (?). On the other hand, buying 50 "with less than Full HD seems to me a bit ... strange? I have the impression that something is not fully understood.

Can you recommend someone else's site?
Maybe it makes sense :?

How does that relate to this?

And for this?

It is great.

An answer worthy of a salesman

I'm glad that I impressed my friend, but look for applause from others. Start providing meaningful answers and cut back on marketing gibberish.

The only thing LocoLoco can do is paste the current prices for TV from its store. He hasn't given any sensible advice for several years ...

Well, back to the topic. The whole trick in giving the distance to the TV started from the moment when the resolution boosting appeared on TVs. Well, it's not about health at all, but the amount of details that we are able to notice.
The higher the resolution, the larger the TV or the closer we need to keep the diagonal in order to notice the difference resulting from the larger number of pixels.
It is simply marketing used to buy larger and more expensive TVs - to sustain this trend, increasingly higher resolutions are used, which, moreover, are not covered by the signal provided. This, in itself, is an interesting phenomenon that TV producers have invented "scaling"
Added to this is the bitrate of the signal, frame width, ambilux etc. There are so many problems that one bottle is not enough to let it spread and not get screwed by sellers ...

Relax, gentlemen, no "personal trips", because you don't need it and it gets offtopic. Everyone has the right to their own opinion. I am willing to listen to any opinion. And the decisions will be made ... and so will the wife Unfortunately, the change of the location of the TV did not pass. He leaves 32 ". I think he will decide on the Samsung UE32M5622. Now I have a question about wall mounting (VESA 100x100 mm, 32", 5.5 kg). What do you recommend, because there is so much that ... large, although for 32 "it probably does not need much. The TV should hang on the wall, as close as possible to the wall. this subject?

Thanks for your help, I chose the Samsung UE32M5622
