How do you find your Laptop Screen Resolution?

When it comes to replacing a laptopscreen, it is important to ensure that the resolution of the replacement laptop screen is the same as the resolution of the original screen. To be able to order for the right screen with the same resolution as your old screen, you will have to perform the measurement.

Laptop screen resolution is measured in vertical pixels and horizontal pixels. For instance, a screen’s resolution could be presented as (ex.: 1366 × 768). If you are buying a replacement screen online, you should first confirm the screen resolution so that you can place an order with specific measurements. Avoid relying on the laptop model when placing an order. Instead, be sure to have the exact measurement of your screen’s resolution. This is because the same laptop model may not come with the same display resolutions.
