    From MummyChunk@21:1/5 to All on Thu Dec 21 01:48:25 2023
    So I have a sharp aquos 60 inch television thats 1080P that I am
    thinking about replacing with a 4K or 8k set. LC-60LE832U

    The width of the television is just a bit over 54 inches wide and I
    have no additional room where its sitting for anything bigger (wider)
    than that.

    Are there any 65 inch sets out there that will fit within this
    dimension range? I think it could be a maximum of 55 inches.

    Apparently since I bought the 60 inch set that size has gone out of
    style.

    Have you tried wandering down to your local shop with a tape measure?

    John.

    I was hoping to narrow it down by recommendation prior to the trip.
    Seems as if many local shops no longer carry such a wide assortment of
    models to view.

    Clearly you do realise that 60" is the diagonal screen measurement.

    Check out a bunch of 65" (etc) sets online and search out their specs
    which should include physical dimensions.

    For instance a Samsung 65" Q80C is 56.9". How much "no additional room"
    do you have ?

    Thanks

    The outer opening of the place where the TV is located is 55 inches
    wide. The inner part behind that opening is maybe 58 inches. So need
    to find a set where the screen portion (before bezel) is no wider than
    55 inches

    If it is a 16:9 aspect ratio screen, as most are, a 65 inch screen will
    be 57 inches wide and 32 inches tall, not counting the bezel. The
    maximum fully visible screen size for your 55 inch wide hole is 63 inches.

    On other words, what you want can not possibly happen unless you are
    happy for two inches of the screen width to be hidden behind the frame.

    Here is a man watching TV with a 62-inch monitor: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Bno-qsnbUA

    I think everybody should have something like this in their living room.
