1. What is LED Display Resolution? Why Does It Matter?

• Resolution refers to the number of pixels (e.g., 1920×1080) on an LED screen.

• Higher resolution = Sharper images, finer details, and better clarity, especially up close.

• Lower resolution may appear pixelated or blurry at short distances but can be cost-effective for large outdoor screens viewed from afar.

Tip: Choose pixel pitch (distance between pixels) based on viewing distance. Smaller pitch = better close-up clarity.

2. How Does Brightness (Nits) Affect Visibility?

• Brightness (measured in nits) determines how well the screen performs under ambient light.

• Indoor displays: 500–1,500 nits (balanced for eye comfort).

• Outdoor displays: 5,000+ nits (to combat sunlight glare).

• Too low brightness: Hard to see in daylight; content appears washed out.

• Too high brightness: Causes eye strain in dark environments and increases power consumption.

Solution: Opt for auto-brightness adjustment or manual calibration based on environment.

3. Can High Resolution Compensate for Low Brightness (or Vice Versa)?

• No. They serve different purposes:

• Resolution improves detail.

• Brightness ensures visibility.

• A 4K screen with low brightness will still be hard to see outdoors, while a bright but low-res screen may look grainy up close.

Ideal Balance: Match resolution to viewing distance and brightness to lighting conditions.

4. How to Optimize Resolution & Brightness for Different Scenarios?

Pro Tip: For video walls, ensure uniform brightness across all panels to avoid inconsistencies.

5. Why Does My LED Screen Look Different at Night vs. Day?

• Daytime: High brightness is needed to compete with sunlight.

• Nighttime: Excessive brightness causes glare and energy waste.

Fix: Use light sensors or scheduling software to auto-adjust brightness.

6. What Are Common Mistakes When Setting Resolution & Brightness?

• ❌ Using outdoor brightness levels indoors (causes eye strain).

• ❌ Ignoring viewing distance when selecting resolution.

• ❌ Overlooking content type (e.g., text-heavy content needs higher resolution).

Best Practice: Test settings with actual content before finalizing.
