What are the most popular TV screen sizes?

In 2024, the most popular TV screen sizes include 43″, 50″, 55″, 65″, 75″ and 85″. The most widespread screen size has been a 65-inch TV since 2019. This trend was influenced by the trade war with China in 2018-2019, when manufacturers were waiting for a 25% tariff imposition that ultimately did not materialize.

According to Statista, the average TV screen size in the US is 50″. However, this information doesn’t give us much insight into what sizes are popular because it includes both TVs produced in previous years and still in use in households, and is simply an “average temperature.” If you’re choosing a TV for the kitchen, you’re unlikely to consider a 65 or 90-inch TV and will be more inclined towards smaller models. In this article, we don’t aim to assess the popularity of TVs in terms of demand but rather to see what sizes of TVs manufacturers offer.

The most popular TV screen sizes

All TV sizes can be categorized into several segments:

  • Under 32 inches. This segment has almost disappeared recently; you can only find budget entry-level models with sizes smaller than 32 inches.
  • 32-45 inches. In this segment, 32-inch and 43-inch models are the most popular. In particular, you can find these sizes in almost any model of Samsung and LG TVs. TVs of these sizes are mainly chosen for the kitchen or a small bedroom.
  • 46-55 inches. The most popular models in this segment are 50- and 55-inch TVs. They are suitable for medium-sized living rooms.
  • 56-65 inches. This segment is dominated by 65-inch TVs, which are well-suited for large rooms.
  • Above 65 inches. These are huge TVs. The most popular sizes are 75 and 85 inches, and Samsung, among others, offers 98-inch models.

The best-selling TV sizes

TVs with screen sizes of 55-65 inches are the most sold worldwide. However, the popularity of a particular TV size often depends on the size of the room. In the USA and Europe, larger TVs are popular because people generally live in bigger houses or apartments. In contrast, in Singapore, TVs with screen sizes of less than 50 inches are more popular due to the prevalence of smaller living spaces. Nonetheless, the general global trend is towards purchasing larger TV sets.
