Do they make a TV that is 48” wide?

Trying to find a 55” TV that is 48” wide. Anyone know of any ? Would like to squeeze in a 55” rather than a 50”.

When you say 48", do you mean that as a hard limit on the dot, or is there wiggle?
ETA: As an example, this one lists at 48.3", and I'm not sure you're going to find side bezels much thinner than that: LINK

Yeah 48” is a hard limit, trying to fit into a specific spot.

So, your problem is that, unless I’m fricking up the math, a 55” diagonal at the standard ratio of 16:9 has a base width of 47.917”.
So, your only realistic hope is to find a TV manufacturer who lies to you (more common than you would think, actually) and lists a 55” TV as one with a whole bezel diagonal as 55” instead of the screen itself being 55”. Because with a screen actually at 55”, you’re unlikely to find side bezels that come in at .04” or less, each.
The problem is that search process will be flat out brute force, as you can’t really search for it cleanly.

Probably have to look at one of those ultra thin bezel displays made for video walls.

Outside of specialty and mislabeled TVs, I think LG is the best bet for “thinnest bezel,” but they listed 48.1” on the one OLED I looked up.

Even a videowall panel is going to be over 48". The bezels are usually 3.5mm combined and the size of the panel plus the bezel will get you just a hair over 48" wide. What material is this obstacle in your way.
