There is no information on (1020 x 1080) resolution, however, the difference between (1920 x 1200) vs (1920 x 1080) HDTV resolution are: (1920 x 1200) has a higher resolution and provides a sharper display than the other, it is also more expensive.

A 1080 TV has 1080p resolution which is better than a 720p, the p refers to the amount of pixels on the TV screen. The price gap between the two TV has lowered to about $250-500. However many people cannot actually discern a difference between the two resolutions.

"The 720p means it shows 720 lines across the screen concurrently every 60 seconds, this leads to a resolution of 1280x720. Naturally, the 1080p shows 1080 lines, producing a resolution of 1920x1080.

What is the difference between 720p and 1080p on a 42 LCD tv?

High definition television uses one of three common formats - 720p, 1080i and 1080p. Any incoming signal will be delivered to a television in one of the three formats.720p indicates that there are 720 lines in the image. The "p" means "progressive" and a complete image is delivered 50 or 60 times each second.1080i shows that there are 1080 lines. The "i" stands for "interlaced" and the image is sent in two halves so a half image is sent 50 or 60 times each second but the full frame is sent only 25 or 30 times each second.1080p is also made up with 1080 lines but the "p" shows that a full image is delivered 50 or 60 times each second.Broadcasters use 720p or 1080i. These are both full HD signals. Although the 720 line image has a lower resolution, it is updated twice as fast. The data rate for 720p and 1080i is the same. Although 720p is less common than 1080i, it is used by broadcasters for some fast action content such as sports.1080p updates the image at twice the rate of 1080 and therefore uses double the bandwidth. Broadcasters do not send out 1080p and it is restricted to local sources such as Bluray, games consoles etc.


Do you need a 1080p tv to watch Blu-ray discs?

There are several HD television formats, all agreed with the international standards organisations. The main formats are 720p 1080i and 1080p. Virtually all HD televisions will handle all formats although some of the earliest HD televisions don't operate with 1080p signals. Later televisions are capable of displaying 1080p as well as other formats. Every HD television has a native resolution. Often, the screen is made up with 1920 x 1080 pixels. All incoming signals are resized to the native resolution. A 720 line signal will be processed to be displayed on the 1080 lines of the display. Similarly, a 1080 line image will be resized to display on 720 or 768 lines if that is the television's native resolution. Therefore, an LCD television with a native screen resolution of 720 lines will be capable of displaying a 1080 line image.
