A lot of people think that a 65-inch TV is 65 inches wide, but that is not true. The screen’s diagonal is what the number that you see in the model’s name represents.
The exact dimensions of a 65-inch LG TV are going to depend on the model. The width of the appliance without the stand can be anywhere between 57 and 57.6 inches, the height – 32.7-33.5 inches, and the depth (the TV’s thickness) – 1.8-3.5 inches.
How do you correctly measure an LG TV and do all 65-inch TVs have a diagonal that is exactly 65 inches? Let’s dive deeper into the topic.

How Do You Measure an LG TV?
How do you measure the screen only?
- Place the measuring stick or tape in the bottom left corner of the screen (make sure to measure the actual screen; don’t start measuring from the plastic frame).
- Extend the measuring device to the upper right corner of the screen (diagonally from the place where you started).
- The length between the two corners is the TV’s screen size – the number that is usually advertised. Bear in mind that a 65-inch TV doesn’t necessarily have to have a screen with a 65-inch diagonal.
Fact: the majority of 65-inch LG TVs have a 64.5-inch screen diagonal.
How do you measure the whole TV?
- Place the measuring stick or tape in the bottom left corner of the device (measure not only the screen but also the TV’s plastic frame).
- This time, extend the measuring device to the lower right corner of the TV. This is the appliance’s width.
- Extend the measuring tape from the bottom corner to the same-side upper corner – that’s the height.
- To measure the TV’s depth, you would have to measure the distance from the front to the back of the appliance.
The majority of modern TVs have extremely thin screens; however, there is always a thicker section at the back that contains all the electronics (make sure to measure the depth of this part)
Is a 65 Inch TV 65 Inches Wide?
The inches that you usually see in the TV’s name are the screen diagonal. It is measured diagonally across the device’s screen.
This means that the width of the screen is always a few inches less. When it comes to LG 65-inch TVs, the width of these flat-screens is, in general, between 57 and 57.6 inches.
How Wide Are the Legs on a 65 Inch LG TV?
Or, in other words, ‘what’s the width of the stand that comes with your LG TV?’. By this, we mean the distance between the legs that the device sits on, not the actual TV stand that you would have to buy separately.
| 65-Inch LG TV Model | Stand Width |
| LG NanoCell 90 Series 2020 65 inch Class 4K Smart UHD NanoCell TV w/ AI ThinQ® | 48.1 inches |
| LG CX 65 inch Class 4K Smart OLED TV w/ AI ThinQ® | 39.3 |
| LG BX 65 inch Class 4K Smart OLED TV w/ AI ThinQ® | 22 |
| LG NanoCell 97 Series 65 inch Class 8K Smart UHD NanoCell TV w/ AI ThinQ® | 51 |
| LG NanoCell 85 Series 2020 65 inch Class 4K Smart UHD NanoCell TV w/ AI ThinQ® | 48 |
| LG NanoCell 90 Series 4K 65 inch Class Smart UHD NanoCell TV w/ AI ThinQ® | 32.7 |
| LG 65 inch Class 4K Smart UHD TV w/ AI ThinQ® | 52.1 |
What Size TV Stand Do You Need for a 65 Inch TV?
For a 65-inch LG TV, you might want to go for a stand that is at least 57 inches wide. However, if you want the media set up to look a bit more balanced and/or if you want to add décor to the surface of the stand, then you should go for a few inches wider from both sides.
When picking a TV stand, remember to take the actual width of the TV into consideration (not the diagonal).
Are All 65-inch TVs the Same Dimensions?
Not all 65-inch TVs have the same dimensions. In fact, even the devices manufactured by the same brand will not always have the same width, height, and depth.
The true dimensions are going to depend on the model of the TV and the frame.
How Much Wall Space Do I Need for a 65-Inch TV?
To figure out whether or not a 65-inch LG TV is going to look great on your wall, you might want to take the width and the height into consideration.
Bear in mind that it is recommended to mount a 65-inch TV about 65 inches above the floor (if measuring from the floor to the device’s center).
It is up to you how much wall space you’d like to leave around the TV. However, leaving at least 4 inches of ventilation space around the device is important for the appliance’s proper functioning (this will help protect the TV from overheating).
Overall, it is completely safe to mount a 65-inch LG TV to the wall. Of course, it is incredibly important to make sure that the TV mount has been installed properly.
