8.4 NAV/RA4 screen dimension?

Because of an issue with my SiriusXM receiver, my dealer replaced the head unit on my 8.4 NAV/RA4 system today. Call me crazy, but the screen looks smaller to me. I'm measuring 6.5 inches edge to edge horizontally, visible width inside the bezel.

Can anyone confirm that dimension as correct? I was quite certain that the 8.4 NAV/RA4 screen measured 8.4 inches edge to edge inside the bezel.

Anyone have a ruler handy? Thanks!

I measured 8" edge to edge horizontally, visible width inside the bezel.

Why has no one measured this before. We are being jipped out of .4 inches; 1.9 inches in your case.

Oops. I meant diagonally.

Screen sizes are always distance between opposite corners, diagonally.

Computer monitors, televisions, smart phones -- been this way as long as I've known (30+ years).

Don't forget most monitors are measured edge to edge on the diagonal, and that includes the edges covered by a bezel. So a 24" display may actually read something like 23.4" or less when measured bezel to bezel.
