Are the names and proportions of various computer screen resolutions messy? Let's use the following article to understand and summarize the common screen proportions and resolutions.

After learning about this, you will surely be able to make things better when designing images and webpages.

In fact, there are only three common screen ratios:, And
, Add a special5: 4
.

Scale chart

　　 4:3 family

Is the most common screen ratio, an ancient standard circulating in the TV era. Before the rise of wide screens in modern times, most of the screen resolutions were based on this ratio.

·VGA
(640x480)
"VGA" is not a resolution specification, but a display standard for IBM computers. In the specification
320x200/256 colors, 320x200/16 colors, 640x350/16 colors, 640x480/16 colors, and more.
80x25 and 40x25. In the end, VGA becomes 640x480 because the highest resolution officially supported is 640x480.
. VGA is important in that it is the baseline resolution accepted by all graphics cards, before Windows loads the graphics card driver (BIOS
) There is a blue-stick running screen, which is at the VGA resolution.

· Svga (800x600)
Svga and VGA
A little like, I also started out as a "Specification", but in the end it seems that no matter what the specification is, all the monitors that are better than VGA claim to be super VGA, or
Svga. In terms of resolution, svga exclusively refers to the resolution of 800x600-even if the screen that advertised itself as svga is often accessible
1024x768, or higher.

·XGA
(1024x768)
In the era of svga, IBM has lost its dominance in the market, and the PC industry has entered the era of competition. Although IBM has defined the XGA specification, it is actually one of multiple super VGA specifications in the past. XGA became synonymous with the resolution of 1024x768.

· Sxga + (1400x1050)
Why? Skipped sxga? I will return to XD later. Sxga + is about 2003 ~ The resolution that is occasionally seen on a laptop in 2007. However, in recent years, with the wide screen pen and electric power, this resolution is hard to see. Ginger's two batteries use this resolution. It's a work requirement.

· Uxga (1600x1200)
Uxga, also known as Uga, has exactly four times the resolution of VGA. Uxga is a lot of 4-3
20 "and 21" Screen analysis, but with the 4:3 screen increasingly rare, it is increasingly difficult to buy this resolution screen. There is a 20 "uxga
It is quite convenient to use Dell screen straightening.

· Qxga (2048x1536)
Qxga has four times the resolution of XGA, which is also the limit supported by most 4-3 screens. In the past, Xiao Jiang had a viewsonic's p90f CRT screen that could hold on to this number, but the pixel size was already smaller than the size of the screen opening, so in fact it was only nominal, and the display could not be displayed.

· Higher
A higher 4-3 Resolution exists, such as quxga, but this is just a theoretical name. In the real world, this resolution is not used.

 

　 16: 9 family

16: 9
It mainly refers to the proportion of HD TVs in use. 720 p and 1080 p are commonly heard.

· 720 p (1280x720)
Rather than a resolution, is it a signal? I have never heard of a computer screen with this resolution. It seems that the TV panel is also more than 1366X768?

· 1080 p (1920x1080)
1080 p is commonly known as full HD (Sony), which was previously only visible on TV (more than 1920x1200 for computers ), however, there has recently been a 1080 p panel pen, like the second generation of Acer Ruby machine, advertised that it can "fill the screen with no black borders 」.

 

 

16: 10 Family

 

Is the common "wide screen" ratio, which has suddenly become very common in recent years and almost exclusive to the market. Depending on your perspective, you can say.
There are various advantages, such as the ability to watch at the same time in two windows side by side, the difficulty in moving the human eye horizontally, and the ability to make a relatively small notebook. Alternatively, you can make a conspiracy to say 16 at the same diagonal length:
The panel of 10 is actually relatively small. In short, seems to be the common standard for all screens (except.

· WVGA (800x480)
-VGA's wide Edition uses most mid and small netbook resolutions. The first generation of 7 "Eee PC is the resolution.

· Wsvga (1024x600)
Well, to be honest, this ratio is not 16: 10 (960x600), but it is an increasingly common wide screen resolution, so it is listed together. Most of the 8.9 netbook is in this resolution, and some 10 Netbook (wind Nb) is also.

·Wxga
(1280x800
, 1366X768)
Wxga is the first 1366X768 (1024x768) wide edition, and is the most common resolution for LCD TV panels. However, on the computer, wxga usually refers to the resolution of 1280x800, which usually appears between 13 and 13 ~ 15.

· Wxga + (1440x900)
It is also a common resolution of wide screen pen, but usually appears on a 19 "wide screen LCD.

·Wsxga
+ (1680x1050)
20 "and 22" wide screen LCD and partially 15.4 "pen/electric-friendly resolution.

· Wuxga (1920x1200)
Uxga wide screen edition. You must reach this resolution to display a 1080 p video lossless on the screen. 1920x1200 power on the table is generally 24 "~ 27 "LCD field, while pen and electric is more than 17" can be seen.

· Wqxga (2560x1600)
It is mainly about 30 "LCD screen resolutions. The famous Apple Cinema display and Dell ultrasharp 3007wfp/3008 WFP are all about this resolution.

　　 5:4 family

Only sxga is a member of the family. Why have you never noticed your own screen comparison? In fact, the ratio of 1280 to 1024 is, not.

· Sxga (1280x1024)
This resolution is applied to the later 17 "screens and most of the 19 non-wide screens. Why does sxga use the ratio of is still a mystery, but in short it becomes an almost ubiquitous presence in the office. Because it is very close to the square, actually it is of little significance to rotate XD.

In fact, the author has always wanted to link a bunch of strange abbreviations and texts with the Representative numbers, but the more I study it, the more I find that the situation is more chaotic than I think. Like wxga
Ginger listed two resolutions above, but there are actually five resolutions (1280x720/16, 1280x768/5, 1280x800/
, 1360x760, 1366X768) can be mounted to wxga
This name. Therefore, the conclusion seems to be that it is safer to write data in the future, but I hope you will be able to understand wsxga + in the future.
