xundefine monitor and display HD vs FHD: Explanation

What is HD?

HD stands for high definition, a term that refers to the quality and clarity of an image or video. HD resolution is measured by the number of pixels, or tiny dots, that make up the picture on a screen. The more pixels there are, the more detail and sharpness you can see.

There are different levels of HD resolution, depending on how many pixels are used. The most common ones are HD (720p) and Full HD (1080p). HD resolution has 1,280 pixels horizontally and 720 pixels vertically, for a total of about 1 million pixels.

Full HD resolution has 1,920 pixels horizontally and 1,080 pixels vertically, for a total of about 2 million pixels.

What is Full HD?

Full HD or FHD is another name for 1080p resolution, which is the for most TVs, laptops, monitors, and smartphones today. FHD offers a clear and crisp picture quality, especially for fast-moving scenes and games.

Full HD is also the typical resolution for Blu-ray discs, digital TV, and many online videos.

FHD resolution uses a 16:9 aspect ratio, which means that the screen is 16 units wide for every 9 units tall. This is the same as HD resolution, and it is also known as widescreen.

However, some devices, such as phones, may have different aspect ratios depending on how you hold them.
