What is resolution?

Resolution refers to the number of pixels a screen can show. The higher the number of pixels a screen can show, the sharper the image quality is. Baseline full HD features 1,920 x 1,080 pixels (1080p) and there are sharper standards, QHD (2,560 x 1,440 pixels) and 4K UHD (3,840 x 2,160 pixels). Compare the sizes below in our monitor resolution chart:

Through the grid, the density of FHD (1920×1080), WQHD (2560×1440), and UHD (3840×2160) screens is compared.

Larger screens, higher resolution

Pixel density is another factor when it comes to picture quality. Larger screens require higher resolution to maintain the same pixel density as smaller screens with lower resolution. Monitors with higher resolution deliver crisper details and provide more screen space.

Are you looking for a wider screen?

Most monitors feature a 16:9 aspect ratio and are suitable for content viewing and productivity work. However, new standards including 21:9 or even 32:9 are offering a wider display experience for better multitasking and improved visuals.

The resolution according to the aspect ratio. 16:9 suitable for general web is UHD(3840×2160px), QHD(2560×1440px), FHD(1920×1080px). 21:9 is WQHD (3440×1440px), which is suitable for business in two divisions. 32:9 suitable for games is Dual QHD(5120×1440px), Super ultra-wide(3840×1080px).
Screens of various aspect ratios are spread out.
