Most of us have televisions in our living rooms, but do you have a TV in your bedroom? The number of households that do is rising, with more and more people each year admitting to enjoying watching TV in bed, and there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that!
Whether you’re popping on This Morning and enjoying breakfast in bed, or you like to take your movie nights to the bedroom, more of us are bringing our TVs into our bedrooms. However, watching television in bed is much different to your living room, and there are a few factors you need to consider when purchasing your bedroom unit.
Today, we’re answering all your burning questions surrounding TVs in bedrooms, primarily which size is right for your room. Read on to find out how Cheap TVs can help you.
Why Put a TV in Your Bedroom?
There are many reasons why someone would want to put a television in their bedroom; let’s take a look.
Cosier than a living room. Even if you dim the lights and bring your duvet onto your couch, nothing is cosier than getting tucked up in bed with a movie. So if you’ve had a long and stressful day and just want to relax, a TV in your bedroom helps you create a perfect snug environment to wind down and fall asleep with your favourite film. Our cheap smart TVs are the ideal accompaniment for your bedroom movie nights as they come ready-loaded with all your favourite streaming apps.
Lazy mornings. Think Sunday mornings. Lie in, coffee on your bedside table, and nothing on your schedule all day. Add a TV into the mix, and you’ve got yourself the perfect lazy morning.
Never fight over what to watch ever again. Does the football clash with the soaps? Are you halfway through a series that your partner just isn’t interested in? A TV in your bedroom can solve all these issues. Time alone to do and watch your own thing is essential in a relationship, so every now and then, slipping off to another room to watch your TV is perfectly fine.

How Do I Know Which Size TV to Choose?
Choosing the most suitable size of TV for your bedroom is a much different process to selecting the best size TV for your living room. Usually, your bedroom is smaller than your lounge, which means that a smaller unit may be appropriate.
Another factor to consider when choosing your bedroom TV’s size is how you intend to use it. For example, if you’ll just be switching it on to catch the morning news while you wake up, then a screen on the smaller end of the spectrum will be just fine. In contrast, if cosy movie nights are more your thing, a larger screen would work better for you.
You mustn’t go too big, as a screen too large may cause your eyes to strain, especially first thing in the morning or late at night when the other lights in the room are switched off. Depending on these factors, we recommend one of our cheap 40 inch TVs or cheap 42 inch TVs for your bedroom.
We have a range of different size TVs to choose from here at Cheap TVs, so, if you’re lucky enough to have a bedroom with lots of space, one of our cheap 65 inch TVs might work better for you.
Where Should I Position a TV in My Bedroom?
When putting a TV in your bedroom, something else to consider is positioning. Most people would place it at the foot of the bed, which is a good place to start, but there are a few factors to consider before making a final decision.
A wall-mounted TV is usually best in bedrooms as they take up much less space. However, it’s important to note that the height you mount the television will differ from that you mount it in your living room. In addition, you will most likely be watching TV in bed, so you must remember to position your TV at eye level. If you don’t, you will find that watching television in bed isn’t as comfortable as you may have thought initially, as you’ll be lying with a strained neck.
How Can I Use My Bedroom TV Safely?
Time spent in your bedroom is for relaxing and sleeping, which is why some people may not opt for a TV in this room. But, if you do, why not try using your smart TVs’ sleep timer function? This way, if you fall asleep while your television is on, you won’t be woken up by its lights and sounds in the middle of the night; equally, you won’t waste any electricity through the night. Additionally, there are nighttime settings on many smart TVs, which allow you to dim the display, so the light isn’t as harsh and bright.
