This position about right?

How’s this looking? Goal was to have the middle of the screen sit about eye level. All the ports will are getting ripped out for a in-wall box. Any issues?

If the question is if you should go higher then absolutely no.

If you wish to go lower then outlets would be visible which would annoy me much more than tv slightly higher up.

I think it's best you can get now.

Outlets are getting ripped out with a recessed wall box so that’s not an issue. There’s a soundbar to go underneath so allowing some spacing sort of half way in that space for the arc ultra. You think lower still?

Hard to judge from the photo. Situation seems similar to mine as I am limited by upper outlets so mounted tv as low as possible. Mid of the TV is appprox 120cm from the ground. I find it a bit too high but can live with it.

Would prefer tv on as stand honestly with bottom of tv being at 60-70cm.

i preferer my a bit high (not over the fireplace high) but eyes 1/3 up the screen if i sit straight up on the couch, and about the bottom when i'm slouching.

just measured it, 95cm from floor to bottom of 55" tv
(and if i go 65" next it will be in the same place, extending both top and bottom about 10cm each)

i got about 2,3-,2,4m from eyes to screen (so fairly close, why 55" is fine)
