16K resolution is a display resolution with approximately 16,000 pixels horizontally. The most commonly discussed 16K resolution is 15360 × 8640, which doubles the pixel count of 8K UHD in each dimension, for a total of four times as many pixels.[1] This resolution has 132.7 megapixels, 16 times as many pixels as 4K resolution and 64 times as many pixels as 1080p resolution.

As of April 2024, 16K resolutions can be run in prototype displays[2] or using multi-monitor setups with AMD Eyefinity,[citation needed] or Nvidia Surround[citation needed] or Mosaic Technology.[3][4]
