This compression robs the signal of its pristine clarity and sharpness and can introduce blocky color gradations into the picture. Now, switch back and forth between the two and note the difference in quality. With 4K resolution, picture clarity is sharper and more colorful than ever. Consumers can also enjoy sitting quite a bit closer to their living room TV without noticing any sort of distortion in the image. This is because 4K TVs display close to four times the number of pixels as a standard p set.
Simply put, the more pixels on display, the better the picture quality. As the screens are usually rectangular, the measurement is made considering the size of the diagonal. The resolution shows us how many pixels fit on the screen. The pixels are the points that make up the image, and are organized in rows and columns.
In this way, the resolution will define how many pixels there are in each row width and each column height. So, saying that a screen has a resolution of x means that it displays pixels per line and per column. The screens of HD resolution, or High Definition, are those of x pixels, that is, almost 1 million pixels. They are mainly used on widescreen 9 screens. They have a better image quality than HD, with a x aspect ratio, which is equivalent to more than 2 million pixels.
Regular DVD quality can vary considerably, with some displaying content at a resolution lower than p, such as p. Moreover, there are still DVD players around that only carry support for up to p or i, meaning a viewer cannot get the full experience of any high-definition DVD they insert into the player. Netflix typically streams at p, but with the release and expansion of what it calls "Super HD," users are able to stream more and more content at p quality with a high-speed internet connection.
Apple TV allows users to choose between p and p streaming. On YouTube and Vimeo , high quality videos often allow for p or even p streaming. Again, resolution is not all there is to picture quality, but for the average user, modern smartphones' video recording capabilities have the potential to be just as good for casual video-making as cheap camcorders.
Screen resolution can be especially important in video gaming. Because there are more pixels in p, less anti-aliasing is required for a smooth visual experience. This means that p will not only likely look better than p, but will lead to a better gaming experience overall, as anti-aliasing can slow down a console or computer. The following video further discusses the differences between p and p and what the two concepts mean for gamers.
