The effect is like that time when I switched my PC monitor to a 32" TV just for fun. I had thought the bigger the better but the moment I turned it on I couldnt look at the screen more more then 2 minutes. It's so tiring to the eyes. No wonder majority of the monitors stop at 23".

No wonder majority of the monitors stop at 23". depends also lah, u c apple desktop. the monitor can go up pretty big. I used one before. really need those if u working on photoshop or illustrator software. that is one of the time where big is better. but true, eyes gets tired easily. banned, kids do tend to stick nearer to TV if u are not monitoring. u hv to take that into consideration unless u dun mind bespectacled monkeys at young age.

Zelly 0 Report post Posted August 19, 2010 I have a 42" and slightly over 2.5M distance gap from my sitting area. I do feel that the tv is abit too big and can be a bit straining to the eye. My previous place, with my 42" and 3M++ distance is really comfy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
