    Each pixel is a sample of an original image, where more samples typically provide a more accurate representation of the original. The intensity of each pixel is variable; in color systems, each pixel typically has three subpixels such as red, green, and blue.

    For practical purposes the clarity of the image is decided by its spatial resolution, not the number of pixels in an image. In effect, spatial resolution is the number of independent pixel values per unit length. The spatial resolution of consumer displays ranges from 50 to 800 pixel lines per inch.
