World Cup 2026: the keys to enjoying football on TV with today’s technology

When choosing a TV to watch football, Roberto De La Cruz, vice president of TCL Electronics Peru says that there are three factors that really make a difference: screen size, image technology and refresh rate. Their recommendations are “screens from 65 inches with 4K resolution, and in terms of image, SQD-Mini LED technology.”

“As for the refresh rate, a panel up to 144Hz with motion compensation technology practically eliminates blur in high-speed actions, something that makes a huge visual difference in football. Complementing this with HDR support and Dolby Atmos audio closes the circle of a truly immersive experience,” he adds.

In the same line, LG advises opting for televisions with high image quality and practical use to fully enjoy the World Cup matches at home.

“In football, fluidity is key, so technologies like Trumotion allow you to follow the trajectory of the ball with greater clarity and reduce blurring in fast plays. Likewise, with intelligent scaling to 4K by the processor, it helps to better appreciate the details of the field, the expressions of the players and the repetitions,” the South Korean brand assured the El Comercio Newspaper.

Furthermore, in terms of dimensions, the technology giant states that choosing the size of the television should mainly consider the distance from where you will see the screen. As a general reference, for a distance of between 2 and 2.5 meters, 55 to 65-inch televisions are usually recommended, while for spaces between 2.8 and 3.5 meters, 75 to 86-inch models can be used.

“It is also important to install the television at a comfortable height, ensuring that the center of the screen is approximately at eye level when people are seated. Finally, before purchasing a large television, it is recommended to verify that the wall or furniture has the appropriate dimensions to maintain a balanced aesthetic and comfortable viewing from any point in the room,” he concludes.
