I remember buying TVs in centimeters. It was a thing. Monitors have been imperial as long as I can remember, but TVs were metric. They only switched when they got bigger for whatever reason.

I'm Czech and our TVs were also sold in centimeters back in the day when a 32inch was huge. Weirdly, some retailers still mention both. You would have inches in the description but the image of the TV would have it in cm

I honestly don't. I know how big a 7inch phone is, how big a 55inch TV is, but otherwise I got no clue how long an inch is.
