What are pixels (px)?

A pixel (picture element) is the smallest controllable element of a digital image or display. It's the basic unit used in digital imaging, computer screens, and digital photography.

The term 'pixel' was first published in 1965, combining 'picture' and 'element'. With the development of digital technology, pixels have become the fundamental unit for displaying images on all digital screens, from smartphones to large monitors.

Pixels are essential in web design, graphic design, photography, and video. Screen resolutions like 1920×1080 (Full HD) or 3840×2160 (4K) indicate the number of pixels horizontally and vertically. Higher pixel counts generally provide sharper, more detailed images.

What is an inch (in)?

An inch (symbol: in or ") is a unit of length in the imperial and US customary systems, equal to exactly 25.4 millimeters. There are 12 inches in a foot and 36 inches in a yard.

When converting pixels to inches, DPI (Dots Per Inch) or PPI (Pixels Per Inch) is crucial. The same number of pixels will occupy different physical sizes on screens with different DPIs. A higher DPI means more pixels packed into each inch, resulting in a sharper display.

Inches are commonly used to measure screen sizes (diagonal measurement), print dimensions, and physical object sizes in countries using the imperial system. In digital design, understanding the pixel-to-inch conversion is essential for creating content that prints correctly or displays at the intended size.

How do you convert pixels (px) to inches (in)?

Understanding the Conversion

Converting pixels to inches requires knowing the DPI (Dots Per Inch) or PPI (Pixels Per Inch) of the display or output device. DPI measures how many pixels fit into one linear inch.

The Conversion Formula

To convert pixels to inches, use the following formula:
Inches = Pixels ÷ DPI

This simple formula divides the number of pixels by the dots per inch to get the physical measurement in inches.

Step-by-Step Process

Determine the number of pixels
Find the DPI/PPI of your display or output (96 for Windows default, 72 for Mac default, 300 for print)
Divide the pixel value by the DPI
The result is your measurement in inches

Examples at 96 DPI (Windows Standard)

96 px to inches:
96 ÷ 96 = 1 inch
192 px to inches:
192 ÷ 96 = 2 inches
1920 px to inches:
1920 ÷ 96 = 20 inches
480 px to inches:
480 ÷ 96 = 5 inches

Examples at 72 DPI (Mac Standard)

72 px to inches:
72 ÷ 72 = 1 inch
144 px to inches:
144 ÷ 72 = 2 inches
1440 px to inches:
1440 ÷ 72 = 20 inches
360 px to inches:
360 ÷ 72 = 5 inches

Common DPI Values

Different devices and purposes use different DPI values:

• Classic Mac: 72 DPI
• Windows screens: 96 DPI (standard)
• High Resolution screens: 120 DPI
• iPhone 3G/3GS: 163 DPI
• iPad Retina: 264 DPI
• iPhone Retina (6/7/8/X/11/12/13): 326 DPI
• iPhone Pro Max (14/15 Pro Max): 458 DPI
• Print (standard): 300 DPI
• Print (high quality): 600+ DPI

For web design, 96 DPI is the most common reference, while print design typically uses 300 DPI. Modern smartphones use much higher DPI values (326-458) for sharper, more detailed displays.
