Answer a Few Questions to Find Out

Choosing between a TV and a projector depends on your room size, lighting, budget, and how you watch. This free tool helps you decide in under 60 seconds.

Room & Light Conditions

Tell us about your viewing space

Why we ask this (Room & Light)

Your room’s lighting, wall space, and layout directly affect how a TV or projector will perform. Bright rooms with lots of natural or overhead light usually benefit from TVs, which maintain strong contrast and clarity. Darker or light-controlled rooms often favor projectors, which can create much larger images with a more cinematic feel. These questions help us understand your space so we can recommend the display that looks best in your real-world environment.

Viewing Habits

How do you typically watch content?

Why we ask this (Viewing Habits)

What you watch—and how you watch—has a major impact on which display will feel right for you. Sports, movies, casual TV, and gaming all place different demands on brightness, motion handling, input lag, and refresh rates. By learning about your viewing habits, we can recommend a TV or projector that matches your daily use, not just ideal conditions.

Screen Size Intent

How big do you want to go?

Why we ask this (Screen Size)

Some people want a massive, theater-like experience, while others prefer a clean, practical setup that fits easily into their space. Your preferred screen size helps determine whether a projector’s flexible image scaling or a TV’s sharp, fixed-size display is the better choice. This allows us to balance immersion, clarity, and comfort based on what you actually want to see.

Feature Priorities

What matters most to you? (Select all that apply)

Why we ask this (Feature Priorities)

Different displays excel at different things. Some are built for brightness in daylight, others for deep blacks and contrast, while some focus on gaming performance or low maintenance. By selecting which features matter most to you, we can weigh those priorities correctly and avoid recommending a display that looks impressive on paper but feels wrong in everyday use.

Budget & Cost Preferences

Let's talk about your investment

Why we ask this (Budget & Cost)

The true cost of a TV or projector isn’t just the purchase price. It can include accessories, mounts, screens, speakers, replacements, and long-term maintenance. These questions help us understand what level of investment you’re comfortable with so we can suggest options that fit your expectations—both upfront and over time.

Installation & Complexity

Your technical comfort and living situation

Why we ask this (Installation & Setup)

Some setups are simple and ready to use right out of the box. Others involve mounting, calibration, cable routing, external speakers, and regular adjustments. Your technical comfort level and living situation—such as whether you rent or own—help us recommend a setup that feels enjoyable, not overwhelming.
