If you don’t have much space to work with or don’t want to buy a projector, a large-screen TV is your most practical choice to getting the biggest images. For an excellent theatre-like effect, choose a TV with a 65-inch (or bigger) display panel and make sure it supports 4K resolution (whatever you’re watching will just look sharper and appear more detailed). Do also look out for a TV with HDR, or High Dynamic Range, which most of today’s TVs already have. HDR makes compatible content look richer in colour and more realistic, vastly improving the viewing experience. There are three HDR content standards, namely, Dolby Vision, HDR10 and HLG.
