Full origin of PPI →Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between PPI and DPI?
PPI counts pixels per inch on a digital display or in an image file. DPI counts the dots of ink a printer lays down per inch of paper. Software often blurs the two, but if there is no ink involved, PPI is the correct term.
What was the PPI scandal?
Payment protection insurance was sold with loans and credit cards across Britain, frequently to people who could never have claimed on it or who did not know they had bought it. Regulators forced banks to pay compensation, resulting in one of the largest consumer redress programmes ever run in the UK. The claims deadline has now passed.
What PPI counts as a good screen?
Roughly 300 PPI or above on a phone held at normal distance is enough that most people cannot pick out individual pixels. Larger screens viewed from further away need far less, which is why televisions have much lower PPI than phones and still look sharp.
