A 1080p HD TV refers to a television that has a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels, providing high-definition picture quality. The "p" stands for "progressive scan," meaning that the image is displayed in a single pass, resulting in smoother motion and clearer images compared to interlaced formats. These TVs are popular for watching movies, playing video games, and streaming content, as they deliver vibrant colors and sharp details. Many streaming services and Blu-ray players support 1080p resolution, making it a common choice for home entertainment systems.
