Resolution Trends in Outdoor Advertising

LED sign technology is evolving quickly. Understanding resolution trends can help you make a smart long-term investment.

Yesterday’s Standard

Just a few years ago, P16 was common for outdoor signs. Today, that resolution is considered outdated and too coarse for most applications.

Today’s Standard

• P10 is now the most common choice for large outdoor signs.

• P8 has become a sweet spot for mid-sized projects.

• P6 is increasingly popular for storefronts and locations where viewers stand closer.

Tomorrow’s Trend

Ultra-fine pixel pitches (like P4 or P5) are beginning to appear in specialty outdoor applications, though costs remain high. These will likely become more mainstream as prices fall.

Key takeaway: Trends are shifting toward finer resolutions, but the best choice is still the one that matches your specific location and audience.
