Therefore, it is necessary to find an ideal balance between good visibility and competitive price when buying LED Screens. Choose the suitable pixel pitch for the LED screen display according to the minimum viewing distance.

What is Pixel Pitch of LED Display? The Pixel Pitch means the center to center distance between two adjacent LED lamps in an LED Module or Screen.

Choosing the suitable pixel pitch for an LED screen display depends on several factors such as viewing distance, screen size, and content resolution. Here are some guidelines
to help you choose the right pixel pitch:

Choosing the suitable pixel pitch for an LED screen display depends on several factors such as viewing distance, screen size, and content resolution. Here are some guidelines to help you choose the right pixel pitch:

Viewing distance

Determine how far away the audience will be from the LED screen. The closer the audience is, the smaller the pixel pitch should be.

Content Resolution

The resolution of the content being displayed should match the native resolution of the LED screen. The pixel pitch should be chosen to achieve the desired resolution.

Budget

The cost of the screen will increase as the pixel pitch decreases. For outdoor LED displays, P4, P5 are generally used for short distances, and P6, P6.67, P8 or P10 for farther.

For indoor display screens, generally, P1.53, P1.86, P2, P2.5, or P3.076 are used, and P4 or P5 are used for the farther. Choose a pixel pitch for LED screens that provides optimal viewing distance and image clarity while still fitting within your budget.

Decide what suitable pixel pitch to choose that base on corresponds to the minimum viewing distance in meters. For example, if the minimum viewing distance is 5 meters then choose an LED pixel pitch as P 5mm.

Rental Indoor Screens are usually P1.9, P2.6, or P2.9 and Outdoors P2.9, P3.9 etc. It is best to consult with a professional to determine the optimal pixel pitch for your specific needs.

Brightness is an important technical parameter to measure LED displays. But many people don’t know it well, all think that the higher brightness is better. Actually, the suitable brightness is the best one. Otherwise, if the brightness is too high, the energy consumption will increase, and if the brightness is too low, the contents of the LED screen display cannot be seen in bright Surrounding.

Factors affecting in Choosing Suitable Brightness of LED Screens

Factors affecting in Choosing Suitable Brightness of LED Screens

Environment

The brightness of the LED screen should match the ambient light of the environment where it is placed.

Distance

The brightness of the LED screen should depend on the viewing distance. For example, if the LED screen is placed farther away, a higher brightness level is required.

Content

The cost of the screen will increase as the pixel pitch decreases. For outdoor LED displays, P4, P5 are generally used for short distances, and P6, P6.67, P8 or P10 for farther.

Usually standard Indoor LED Screen brightness are 600 to 700nits (nits=Cd/Sqm) and Outdoors 4500-5000nits. Dgicon do customization 800 to 1200nits for Indoors 5500 to 10000nits depending on Pixels and Customer needs.
