The difference is that whilst D1 has a 4:3 aspect ratio 960H has a 16:9 widescreen aspect ratio. The extra pixels are used to form the increased area to the sides of the D1 image. The pixel density of 960H is identical to standard D1 resolution so it does not give any improvement in image quality, merely a wider aspect ratio.

It is used for multiple anamorphic formats and DCI 1024:429 (21. 482517:9), but also for ultrawide computer monitors, including 43:18 (21 1 ⁄ 2:9) for resolutions based on 720 lines and 12:5 (21 3 ⁄ 5:9) for ultrawide variants of resolutions based either on 960 pixels width or 900 lines height.
WSXGA+ displays were commonly used on Widescreen 20-, 21-, and 22-inch LCD monitors from numerous manufacturers (and a very small number of 19-inch widescreen monitors), as well as widescreen 15.4-inch and 17-inch laptop LCD screens like the Thinkpad T61p, the late 17" Apple PowerBook G4 and the unibody Apple 15" MacBook Pro.
As of 2016, most computer monitors use widescreen displays with an aspect ratio of 16:9, [5] although some portable PCs use narrower aspect ratios like 3:2 and 16:10 [6] while some high-end desktop monitors have adopted ultrawide displays. [7] The following table summarises the different aspect ratios that have been used in computer displays:
On August 2, 2016, Microsoft released the Xbox One S, which supports 4K streaming and has an Ultra HD Blu-ray disc drive, but does not support 4K gaming. [89] On November 10, 2016, Sony released the PlayStation 4 Pro, which supports 4K streaming and gaming, [90] though many games use checkerboard rendering or are upscaled 4K. [91]
Until about 2003, most computer monitors had a 4:3 aspect ratio, with some using a 5:4 ratio. Between 2003 and 2006, monitors with 16:10 aspect ratios became commonly available, first in laptops, and later in display monitors. Such displays were considered better suited for word processing and computer-aided design. [4] [5]
