The diagonal screen size of a CRT television is limited to about 100 cm (40 in) because of size requirements of the cathode-ray tube, which fires three beams of electrons onto the screen to create a viewable image. A large-screen TV requires a longer tube, making a large-screen CRT TV of about 130 to 200 cm (50 to 80 in) unrealistic.
On two-dimensional display devices such as computer monitors the display size or viewable image size is the actual amount of screen space that is available to display a picture, video or working space, without obstruction from the bezel or other aspects of the unit's design.

The 2.1-inch Epson ET-10 [18] Epson Elf was the first color LCD pocket TV, released in 1984. [19] In 1988, a Sharp research team led by engineer T. Nagayasu demonstrated a 14-inch full-color LCD, [12] [20] which convinced the electronics industry that LCD would eventually replace CRTs as the standard television display technology. [12]
The first commercial displays capable of this resolution include an 82-inch LCD TV revealed by Samsung in early 2008, [44] the Sony SRM-L560, a 56-inch LCD reference monitor announced in October 2009, [45] an 84-inch display demonstrated by LG in mid-2010, [46] and a 27.84-inch 158 PPI 4K IPS monitor for medical purposes launched by Innolux in ...
