Guy1: When i can chose 1080i or 1080p, which is better?

Friend of guy1: 1080p is definitely the best, you would make a big mistake if you bought 1080i because that would be worse than 720p. Don't get the marketing trick you to think same resolution means same quality.

1080p or GTFO by Jimmy Man January 2, 2011
1080i is a DHTV high definition widescreen displaying standard. Commonly pronounced /ten-eighty I/.
1080 means resolution of 1920x1080, i stands for interlaced, which means two fields of half-quality image are being unpercievably rapidly swapped in every frame of such display, in outcome it has half the image quality as opposed to progressive 1080p. As a counsequence of which, framerate is being mentioned in Fields per seconds, that means interlaced displays have half the framerate and sharpness as progressive displays, where famerate is in full Frames per second.
Dood 1: Is the 1080i better than 1080p? I am confused.

Informed friend of dood 1: no, it's in fact below 720p. The quality rises like this: 480i 480p 1080i 720p 1080p.

Word of the Day on October 28, 2026

Usually something that isn't a particularly a big deal, esp. when it primarily affects someone else - sort of a mild schadenfreude. Sometimes doubled or tripled, and possibly said in a sing-songy voice for added comedic effect to imitate a muted trumpet, which is how the meme originated.
