What is My Screen Resolution

Browser viewport (browser window’s size without taskbars/toolbars/address bars):

Screen resolution is the number of individual pixels in each axis that can be displayed on screen of electronic visual display device.

It is usually noted in a format of width x height, for instance: 1920 x 1080 means the width is 1920 pixels and the height is 1080 pixels which in this case would give total of 2,073,600 pixels on screen.

The higher the display resolution is, the sharper and clearer displayed content can be because a higher resolution monitor will be made up of more pixels than a lower resolution monitor. Furthermore, more viewable content can fit onto a higher resolution screen.

Pixel (picture element) is a smallest controllable element of a display device and therefore pixels are basic building blocks of any image you see on screen. Each pixel is divided into three subpixels, each showing one color of varying intensity/brightness: red, green and blue(RGB).

Thanks to human perception of colors, combinations of different shades of these three primary colors give single screen pixel way to reproduce all other colors in color gamut.

Pixel density is an attribute of a display device measured as number of device pixels within one inch of screen space, either in horizontal or vertical direction.

Pixel density determines how high is the definition of the display. The higher the pixel density of the display, the sharper and crisper are text and images being displayed.
