We all know that low-resolution images look less sharp and good quality than high-resolution ones because they show fewer details and information. This happens when you take photos using some old devices or download compressed images from other platforms like Facebook and some websites. So in order to get a better view of these images, you need to convert low-resolution images to high ones, and this article will share with you the method to accomplish it.

Part 1: What is image resolution?

Image resolution usually refers to the number of pixels contains in an image. The higher the resolution means the more pixels, that is, the image contains more details. So high resolution always leads to sharper images while low resolution will cause images pixelated.

Image resolution is stated as horizontal x vertical measurement. For example, an image’s resolution is 6000 x 8000 which means it contains 6000 pixels in width and 8000 in height. The second way to measure resolution is megapixels, you can multiply the two figures together to get it. For example, 6000 x 8000 equals 48,000,000 which is 48 megapixels (MP).

Part 2: Why choose high resolution?

High-resolution images can display all details on a high-resolution monitor. You may have noticed that high-resolution monitors had become the main trend in the market like 4K (horizontal resolutions of around 4,000 pixels) or even 8K TV screens. People tend to pursue extreme clarity when watching videos or seeing images. So low-resolution images will look blurry or pixelated when you display them on your TV screen.

The resolution also relates to the quality directly when taking photos. That’s why photographers prefer high-resolution cameras — higher resolution when capturing the photo, the photo will have higher quality.

Lastly, you can crop high-resolution images easily without losing quality. Because there are enough pixels/information to make the image look “the same sharp” when zooming in.
