1280x720

1280x720 refers to a display resolution that has a width of 1280 pixels and a height of 720 pixels. This resolution is commonly known as 720p or HD (High Definition). It represents a significant step up in picture quality compared to older standard definition resolutions like 480i or 480p. The "p" in 720p stands for progressive scan, meaning that each frame is displayed as a complete image, resulting in a smoother and more stable picture than interlaced scanning.

The 1280x720 resolution became widely adopted with the advent of High Definition Television (HDTV) broadcasts and is a standard for many digital media formats. It offers a good balance between image detail and the bandwidth or storage space required to transmit or store the video. While higher resolutions like 1080p (1920x1080) and 4K (3840x2160) are now more prevalent for premium content, 720p remains a common resolution for streaming services, video games, and mobile devices, especially when bandwidth is a concern. The pixel count for 1280x720 is 921,600 pixels per frame.
