P5Upper limit
At a viewing distance of 5 metres you view comfortably up to P2.5. Up to P5 is just acceptable; coarser and you see the individual pixels.

The rule of thumb
The minimum viewing distance in metres is roughly the pitch in millimetres. You view comfortably from about twice that distance. It is a rule of thumb, not a standard: content with small text needs a finer pitch, ambient visuals can go coarser.

| P1.25 | 1.3 m | 2.5 m |
