The resolution of your screen is determined by dividing the screen width in pixels by the visible width of the screen in inches. For example: Set your screen to be 800x600 pixels in the Monitor (or Display) Control Panel. A 17 inch monitor has a viewable area that is about 12.5 inches wide.

Full HD is just another term for 1080p or 1920x1080, and those are all ways of referring to the same resolution. By contrast, 4K has a resolution of 3840x2160. That's a lot more pixels in the overall image ? totaling over 8 million pixels. As always, the higher the resolution, the sharper the picture will be.

The standard resolution used today is 1024x768. You might also hear resolution referred as VGA, SVGA, XGA or something similar. This is especially true with laptops or LCD monitors. VGA simply is 640x480 pixels, SVGA=800x600, XGA=1024x768.

How is resolution measured? The resolution of a digital image is measured using its pixels; specifically in pixels per inch (PPI). For printing, picture resolution is measured by dots per inch (DPI), referring to the tiny droplets of ink that printers create.

Full HD: 1080p image resolution (1,920 x 1,080 pixels ? approximately 2 million total pixels)

It is usually quoted as width × height, with the units in pixels: for example, 1024 × 768 means the width is 1024 pixels and the height is 768 pixels.

An image with 640x480 resolution will be displayed on a monitor as 640/72=8.9 inches by 480/72=6.7 inches, or 8.9 x 6.7 inches in size. Therefore an image with 640x480 resolution is a good size image to view on a monitor, email to a friend, use on social media or on a website.
