MV>> Here we do not. Not any more. Televison screens are advertised in MV>> cm.
RB> Which nobody understands in Germany, but is required by law. So RB> manufacturers quote both inches and cm.
"Nobody"!? Oh, c'mon... I would be surprised if the younger generation is included in that "nobody" of yours...
In de analog days, when almost every country had its own TV standard, TV screens were advertised in the unit most used in the country were thet were sold. Nowadays, in tghe digital era, there are not all that many standards any more and the manufacturers do not have to makedifferent models for different countries. So they are advertised in cm and in inches. Maybe after Brexit the inches will go...
MV>> Computer screens and screens for navigation units are still in MV>> inches, but I expcect that to change as well.
RB> It alreads has in Germany (stating diagonals in cm), but the same RB> thing applies as with TVs. Both inches and cm are quoted.
Because the same model is sold in The UK and on the Continent.
