Philippides, Alexis (17 April 2012). "What are 4K, QFHD and Ultra HD resolutions?". Stuff-Review . Retrieved 2018-05-15. The graphics display resolution is also known as the display mode or the video mode. It indicates the number of distinct pixels that can be displayed on a screen, which affects the sharpness and clarity of the image. The graphics display resolution can be controlled by various factors, such as the type of display device, the signal format, the aspect ratio, and the refresh rate. [1] The graphics display resolution can be expressed as a single number (e.g. 1080p), which represents the number of horizontal or vertical pixels, or as two numbers separated by a multiplication sign (e.g. 1920×1080), which represent the width and height in pixels.

Wide QVGA or WQVGA are some display resolutions having the same height in pixels as QVGA, but wider. [9]

UXGA [28] [31] (sometimes UGA) [ citation needed] is an abbreviation for Ultra Extended Graphics Array referring to a standard monitor resolution of 1600 × 1200 pixels (totaling 1,920,000 pixels), which is exactly four times the default image resolution of SVGA ( 800 × 600) (totaling 480,000 pixels). Dell Inc. refers to the same resolution of 1,920,000 pixels as UGA. It is generally considered to be the next step above SXGA ( 1280 × 960 or 1280 × 1024), but some resolutions (such as the unnamed 1366 × 1024 and SXGA+ at 1400 × 1050) fit between the two. When set in relation to higher resolutions, Full HD is also referred to as 2K because it has roughly 2000 pixels of horizontal resolution. This is usually the lowest resolution used with K notation. Insert a decimal point in the product so it has the same number of decimal places equal to the total from step 1. non-square pixels, Hitachi's ALiS Technology for Plasma TVs with horizontaly "streched" pixels, displayed on a 16:9(?) or 16:10(?) Plasma TV was chosen as the resolution of the UHDTV1 format defined in SMPTE ST 2036-1, [96] as well as the 4K UHDTV system defined in ITU-R BT.2020 [97] [98] and the UHD-1 broadcast standard from DVB. [99] It is also the minimum resolution requirement for CEA's definition of an Ultra HD display. [100] Before the publication of these standards, it was sometimes casually referred to as QFHD (Quad Full HD). [101]

The graphics display resolution is influenced by the aspect ratio, which is the ratio of the width to the height of the display. The aspect ratio determines how the image is scaled and stretched to fit the screen. The most common aspect ratios for graphics displays are 4:3, 16:10 (equal to 8/5), 16:9, and 21:9 (equal to 7/3). The aspect ratio also affects the field of view and the perceived size of objects on the screen. [3] Some graphics displays support multiple resolutions and aspect ratios, which can be changed by the user or by the software. [4] Overview by vertical resolution and aspect ratio [ edit ] Graphics display resolutions (by vertical resolution (height) and storage aspect ratio (SAR)) [5] Height In response to usability flaws of now common 16:9 displays in office/professional applications, [ citation needed] Microsoft and Huawei started to offer notebooks with a 3:2 aspect ratio. By 2021, Huawei also offers a monitor display offering this aspect ratio, targeted towards professional uses.

Recent medical displays such as Barco Coronis Fusion 10MP or NDS Dome S10 have a native panel resolution of 4096 × 2560. These are driven by two dual-link DVI or DisplayPort outputs. They can be considered to be two seamless virtual QSXGA displays as they have to be driven simultaneously by both dual-link DVI or DisplayPort since one dual-link DVI or DisplayPort cannot single-handedly display 10 megapixels. A similar resolution of 2560 × 1920 (4:3) was supported by a small number of CRT displays via VGA such as the Viewsonic P225f when paired with the right graphics card. [ citation needed] 3200 × 2048 (WQSXGA) [ edit ] WUXGA [28] [31] stands for Widescreen Ultra Extended Graphics Array and is a display resolution of 1920 × 1200 pixels (2,304,000 pixels) with a 16:10 screen aspect ratio. It is a wide version of UXGA. By some producers it is called FHD+ because it is the next bigger resolution in vertical direction after FHD ( 1920 × 1080). [45] WUXGA/FHD+ can be used for viewing high-definition television (HDTV) content, which uses a 16:9 aspect ratio and a 1280 × 720 (720p) or 1920 × 1080 (1080i or 1080p) resolution. Based on desktop resolution statistics from January 2023, the XGA fullscreen (1024 x 768) is still in use today, but the most popular resolution worldwide is 1920x1080, with a usage rate of 24%.All standard HD resolutions share a 16∶9 aspect ratio, although some derived resolutions with smaller or larger ratios also exist, e.g. 4∶3 and 64∶27, respectively. Most of the narrower resolutions are only used for storing, not for displaying videos, while the wider resolutions are often available as physical displays. FWVGA [14] [146] is an abbreviation for Full Wide Video Graphics Array which refers to a display resolution of 854 × 480 pixels. 854 × 480 is approximately the 16:9 aspect ratio of anamorphically "un-squeezed" NTSC DVD widescreen video and is considered a "safe" resolution that does not crop any of the image. It is called Full WVGA to distinguish it from other, narrower WVGA resolutions which require cropping 16:9 aspect ratio high-definition video (i.e. it is full width, albeit with a considerable reduction in size). The 4:3 aspect ratio is commonly known as the fullscreen aspect ratio. The 4x3 (1.33:1) format became the first standard ratio for televisions and computer monitors as it was easy to use due to the camera formats.

This resolution is equivalent to a Full HD ( 1920 × 1080) extended in width by 33%, with an aspect ratio of 64:27 (2. 370, or 21. 3:9). It is sometimes referred to as 1080p ultrawide [ citation needed] or UW FHD (ultrawide FHD) [41] or UWFHD. [47] Monitors at this resolution usually contain built-in firmware to divide the screen into two 1280 × 1080 screens. [70] [41] 3840 × 1080 [ edit ] The initial version of XGA expanded upon IBM's older VGA by adding support for four new screen modes, including one new resolution: [157] [158] is a resolution used by many smartphones since 2018. It has an aspect ratio of 18:9, matching that of the Univisium film format. [69] 2560 × 1080 [ edit ] Kelion, Leo (1 March 2015). "Samsung S6 Edge with curved screen unveiled at MWC". BBC News . Retrieved 2015-03-01. This resolution has a 12:5 aspect ratio (2.4:1, or 21.6:9; commonly marketed as simply "21:9"). It is equivalent to WQXGA ( 2560 × 1600) extended in width by 50%, or 4K UHD ( 3840 × 2160) reduced in height by 26%. This resolution is commonly encountered in cinematic 4K content that has been cropped vertically to a widescreen 2.4:1 aspect ratio. The first monitor to support this resolution was the 37.5-inch LG 38UC99-W. Other vendors followed, with Dell U3818DW, HP Z38c, and Acer XR382CQK. This resolution is referred to as UW4K, WQHD+, [52] [89] UWQHD+, or QHD+, [90] [91] though no single name is agreed upon.Since a pixel must be a whole number, rounding up to 854 ensures inclusion of the entire image. 853 × 480 is the 16:9 equivalent for NTSC (480 lines) on a display with square pixels. Citations are needed that displays with this resolution exist. Hollister, Sean (23 May 2013). "HP redesigns Envy and Pavilion laptops for 2013, including one with a 3200 x 1800 screen". The Verge .
