As time goes by, many consumers report that they regret not buying a bigger screen TV. Today\u2019s consumers want a bigger, more immersive picture.<\/p>\n<p>Which may explain why, according to recent consumer segmentation research conducted by Samsung Electronics, consumers rank screen size as a major reason to upgrade to a new TV, and why this year, experts predict that sales of 75-inch and larger TVs will increase by 17 percent, and sales of 8K TVs will increase by 110 percent.<sup>1<\/sup><\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"embedded recommended recommended-post\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"embedded-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"card-badge\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>Recommended News<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"recommended-card\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/news.samsung.com\/us\/galaxy-unpacked-2020-08-livestream-video\/\" class=\"recommended-news\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/img.us.news.samsung.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/05132008\/Screen-Shot-2020-08-05-at-1.17.45-PM.png\" alt=\"[Video] Watch Samsung Unveil Five Powerful New Devices at Galaxy Unpacked 2020\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"details\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"details-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"post-category\">Mobile<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4> Watch Samsung Unveil Five Powerful New Devices at Galaxy Unpacked 2020<\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"article-content\">\n\t\t<div class=\"article-body\">\n<p>The benefits of buying a big-screen TV are as clear as the spacious displays\u2019 immersive images. Let\u2019s take a closer look at some of those benefits now.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><strong>1. Next-Level Realism<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nIt may sound simple, but it\u2019s true: the bigger your TV\u2019s screen, the easier it is to appreciate its picture quality.<\/p>\n<p>The key lies in the balance between size and resolution \u2013 the total number of pixels a TV\u2019s screen contains. The bigger the TV, the more important its resolution becomes. An ultra-high-resolution TV like Samsung\u2019s QLED 8K packs a whopping <em>33 million pixels<\/em> into its screen. Such high resolution makes pixels imperceptible on a big-screen TV \u2013 amplifying your immersion by offering you a bigger, more realistic picture.<\/p>\n<p>With this in mind, it\u2019s easy to see why consumers consistently rate screen size as one of the most important factors affecting their TV purchasing decisions, just as it\u2019s easy to see how a big, high-resolution screen takes everything from watching films to gaming to the next level.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-40707 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/img.us.news.samsung.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/29105515\/Samsung-TV.jpg\" alt=\"Samsung TV\" width=\"1000\" height=\"666\" srcset=\"https:\/\/img.us.news.samsung.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/29105515\/Samsung-TV.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/img.us.news.samsung.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/29105515\/Samsung-TV-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/img.us.news.samsung.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/29105515\/Samsung-TV-950x633.jpg 950w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #000080;\">2.
