About this tool

2560 by 1440 is QHD, the resolution of most 27-inch monitors and many gaming displays. It is the sweet spot for desktop wallpapers and UI screenshots: noticeably sharper than 1080p on a 27-inch screen, without the file size and GPU cost of 4K. Here the preset fills that landscape 16:9 frame - 3.7 megapixels - the resolution most gaming monitors run at and most wallpaper packs are cut for.

  3. Save itDownload a PNG for screenshots and UI, or a JPG for photographic wallpapers.

QHD for wallpapers and screenshots

If your monitor is 27 inches, a 1080p wallpaper is being stretched by a third; a 2560 x 1440 image fills it pixel for pixel. Ultrawide monitors use 3440 x 1440 instead, so check before you resize. For design mock-ups and app screenshots, QHD is also a common capture size from Retina-class laptops scaled for the web.
