I don't get the point of curved tv's wasn't one of the main drawbacks of old CRT Tv's besides the lower resolution the screen distortion that came from it not having a flat screen (well most of them anyway).

The idea is that you get a slightly bigger perceived fov, at the cost of some distortion.


If you sit far away or off center it's pointless. 6 ft recommended viewing distance to benefit from the curve.
