It's HD ready - the picture is crystal clear though, looks much better than our TV did and that was an HD TV. You can make the picture as big or as small as you like so if you are playing Arcade games or the old XBOX (not 360) games then the image is super sharp and fantastic quality. The actual resolution adapts according to what you are watching/playing which is pretty sweet - the whole set-up, including screen, only cost about £450.
