Choosing the Right LCD Screen Size
for Your Project

When it comes to LCDs, size isn’t just a design choice and it’s a functional one. Whether you’re building a compact sensor or a full-sized industrial interface, choosing the right display size impacts usability, performance, and overall experience.

At 4D LCD, we offer display sizes ranging from as small as 0.96” all the way up to 21.5”, with the option to fully customise dimensions, aspect ratios, cutouts, and interface types to suit your exact project requirements.

So how do you decide what size you need?

Start with how your product is used

If your device is handheld or wearable, like a health tracker, smart tag, or compact control unit, smaller screens from 0.96″ to 2.8″ are ideal. They’re light, efficient, and easy to integrate in tight spaces.

For interfaces requiring user interaction, like smart home panels, industrial controls, or embedded HMIs, the mid-range sizes between 3.5” and 10.1” give enough space for clarity and touch-friendly design.

If you’re working on kiosks, digital signage, or complex dashboards, a larger display (15.0”–21.5”) provides the visual real estate needed for graphs, multiple inputs, or data-heavy screens.

Think about the environment

Will the display be used outdoors? In vehicles? Glove-friendly touch or high brightness might be just as important as size. That’s where our customisation helps and you can tailor everything from touch type and backlight level to the mounting frame and interface.

Flexibility makes a difference

The reality is, no two products are the same. That’s why we don’t box you into standard sizes. If your design calls for something in between, something ultra-wide, or even an irregular cutout then we can help bring that to life.The screen is the face of your product. Make sure it fits and not just physically, but functionally. Whether you need small, large, or something completely custom, we’ll work with you to deliver the right LCD solution from start to finish.
