These TVs receive a perfect score for this test. If you watch those kinds of media, the results of this test are going to be quite important to you.įor 1080p TVs, 1080p is the native resolution, meaning a 1080p signal fits perfectly, with no upscaling required to make the image fit. 1080p is sometimes called ‘Full HD’ and is used by Blu-rays, PC games, last-gen video games (mostly Xbox One & PS4), and most streaming video.
Our 1080p test evaluates how well a TV can upscale an image with 1920 x 1080 pixels to fit the screen's resolution. To determine which resolutions matter to you, consult this list of some common examples of media and their associated resolutions. Not everyone needs to be concerned with upscaling quality for all resolutions. – these test results won’t matter at all. It’s also worth noting that if a device other than the TV is doing upscaling – like a receiver, an upscaling Blu-ray player, etc. While it is best to get a TV that does a good job of upscaling, it’s not the end of the world if you get a model that isn’t quite as good – the difference won’t be that stark. It’s worth noting that most people aren’t very bothered if a TV has poorer upscaling, and that is because quality mostly relies on the level of detail contained within the media itself for example, no TV can make 480p video look great because it’s a low resolution with little detail. Above, compare good upscaling (left) with poor upscaling (right).
Poor upscaling will do a bad job of translating this detail, rendering the image blurry or overly sharp. Good upscaling will do a good job of translating detail from lower resolutions to the higher-resolution pixel count of the screen, keeping images crisp. A TV's upscaling is a determining factor in how good an image of a given resolution looks on screen, and applies to all video.
