Things To Know - 1080p, 1080i, and 720p?

What is the difference between 1080p, 1080i, and 720p?

The letters "i" and "p" refer to whether a TV displays its pixels in an interlaced format ("i") or a progressive-scan format ("p"). Interlaced means that the television renders each line of pixels in an alternating pattern, resulting in a choppier image. Progressive-scan means that each line of pixels is rendered consecutively, resulting in a smoother, more realistic image. 1080p, the newest of the technologies, combines a high pixels number with progressive scanning to produce crisper images and more fluid motion. While broadcast content is not yet available in 1080p, you can now watch movies in this "true" High Definition format with a Blu-ray Disc™ Player, which provides 1080p resolution.
