Good to know

Screen resolution vs viewport

Screen resolution is the size of your whole display, while the viewport is the part of the browser window a web page can use. Operating systems scale high-density displays, so a 2880 × 1800 screen may report as 1440 × 900 with a device pixel ratio of 2. Taking screenshots? ScreenBadger saves them at full resolution, with no watermark.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Why is my resolution smaller than my monitor’s spec?

Your operating system is scaling the display. Browsers report scaled CSS pixels; multiply by the device pixel ratio to get the physical pixels shown as the headline.

Does browser zoom change the numbers?

Yes. Zooming changes the device pixel ratio and viewport, so the CSS screen size can change too. Reset zoom to 100% for your true scaling.

What is colour depth?

The number of bits used for each pixel’s colour. Most displays report 24-bit, which is 8 bits per red, green and blue channel; HDR displays may report 30-bit.

What does available screen mean?

It is the screen area left after permanent system UI such as the taskbar or Dock.
