To calculate the min and max viewing distance for 4K HDTVs:

The suggested optimal viewing distance is between 1 and 1.5 (x) times the screen’s diagonal measurement (SDM). 1 x SDM = Min viewing distance for 4K HD TVs 1.5 x SDM = Max viewing distance for 4K HD TVs

To calculate the min and max viewing distance for HD TVs:

The suggested optimal viewing distance is between 1.5 and 2.5 (x) times the screen’s diagonal measurement (SDM). A mathematical formula would look like this: 1.5 x SDM = Min viewing distance for HD TVs 2.5 x SDM = Max viewing distance for HD TVs If the picture quality is not optimal, the viewer can see the columns of pixels. Then, the television is too close to the viewer.
