[ GLOSSARY DEFINITION ] Display

response time 1ms

A display specification describing how fast a pixel changes colour, often quoted as a 1 ms grey-to-grey figure.

Full Definition & Technical Explanation

Response time measures how quickly a pixel shifts between colours, usually quoted as grey-to-grey in milliseconds. Lower is better: slow pixels cause visible ghosting on fast motion.

Marketing figures are often measured on ideal transitions, so real-world motion clarity depends on panel type and tuning as much as the headline number.
