Retina Image Size Calculator

Enter the CSS or point display size to calculate matching high-density image dimensions for 1x, 2x, and 3x assets.

For a 640 × 360 display slot, a 2x asset is 1280 × 720 pixels and a 3x asset is 1920 × 1080 pixels.

Browser-local limits

Canvas-based export is browser dependent. PNG is broadly available; JPEG/WebP quality and support can vary, and metadata may not be preserved through canvas re-encoding.

Device pixels and CSS pixels answer different questions

A high-density image is often prepared with more physical pixels than the CSS size at which it is displayed. A 2× asset, for example, can use roughly twice the width and height in image pixels while occupying the same CSS dimensions, giving the browser more source detail on a high-DPI screen.

Use responsive images instead of assuming one DPR

Real devices have many device-pixel ratios, zoom levels, viewport sizes, and bandwidth conditions. Use the calculated dimensions as an asset-planning reference, then provide appropriate srcset/sizes or other responsive-image hints when multiple resolutions are available. More pixels do not automatically improve perceived quality if the source is soft, and oversized assets can waste download bytes and memory.
