DDW Engineer Notes: P1.5 vs P1.8 vs P2.5 LED display

Many luxury retail projects now prefer P1.5 or P1.8 because customers often stand very close to the display.

However, for churches or conference halls where viewers sit farther away, P2.5 may already provide excellent visual results while maintaining better project economics.

P2.5 is more cost-effective when viewers are 3 m or farther away; P1.8 is worth it for closer viewing or detailed content.
