Wide VGA or WVGA an abbreviation for Wide Video Graphics Array is any display resolution with the same 480 pixel height as VGA but wider, such as 800×480, 848×480, or 854×480. It is a common resolution among LCD projectors and later portable and hand-held internet-enabled devices (such as MID and Netbooks) as it is capable of rendering web sites designed for an 800px-wide window in full page-width. A well-known example is the ASUS Eee PC 700 series.
As of 2009 high-end mobile phones with WVGA display resolution are becoming more common (e.g. Nokia N900, Sony Ericsson XPERIA X2, HTC HD2, and Motorola Droid).
FWVGA
FWVGA an abbreviation for Full Wide Video Graphics Array referring to a display resolution of 854×480 pixels, rounded up from 853.333…. (480 x 16⁄9 = 853.333…. Since a pixel must be a whole number, rounding up to 854 insures inclusion of the entire image.) 854×480 is approximately the resolution of anamorphically "un-squeezed" DVD widescreen video and considered a "safe" resolution that would not crop any of the image. It's called Full WVGA as it represent true 16:9 aspect ratio which can display High-definition video without cropping (i.e. full width, albeit with considerable reduction in size.) [1].
