Monitor Resolution: what is it

Before buying a new monitor, users want to know about the characteristics, abilities that need to be paid attention to. One of the most important characteristics of any modern monitor is its resolution.

What is meant by permission? Usually we are talking about the total number of resolution pixels, from which the image is formed on the display. Today, the market has a very large selection of different monitors with a variety of resolutions. They are suitable for several purposes and tasks, so users need to choose which model suits them in price and their characteristics.

The resolution of the display differs depending on the size of the device. Many people even believe that the size of the display, as well as the resolution, are one and the same thing. For example, if the screen size is 17 inches, then this does not mean that its resolution will be only 1024 by 768 or 1280 by 1024. Screen resolution varies from model to model. Expensive models can boast higher, and monitors that are cheaper have much less.

And also the screen resolution can be selected depending on the model. For example, each user can set the resolution to 800 by 600 pixels, but in this case the quality of the “picture” will be less.

In order to get the highest quality image possible, you need to set the maximum resolution that the screen supports. In this case, you can comfortably watch movies, play computer games or read text documents.

Super resolution in the monitor: what is it

 This unique technology is the result of research that has been going on for many years. Studies have been conducted to improve the quality of the "picture". Today, this technology allows you to get an almost perfect image for both home viewing and a small movie theater. The essence of the technology is that it is able to adapt resolution.

In this technology, a special chip has been used that allows you to calculate the maximum possible loss of resolution in case you need to make the so-called "image expansion". That is why the technology allows you to get rid of any image artifacts that occur during scaling. After that, a special filter is turned on, which allows you to make the picture even more realistic and “clean”.

Directly during the image retouching process, this chip is able to increase the contrast ratio. Because of this, it is possible to achieve a perfectly clear picture and the highest quality image. This is especially important when watching dynamic movies, when the image is constantly changing.

The value of this technology is especially great in the case of games. With its help, you can achieve amazing results during the processing of photos or videos. We can confidently say that this technology is indispensable for designers who are engaged in the processing of old photos or videos that need improvement.

What are the monitor screen resolutions?

In this case, making a choice will be easier.
