high-definition video
Sharp moving pictures
High-definition video is video with significantly greater resolution than standard definition, typically 720p, 1080p, or higher.
The term emerged in the early 2000s as televisions and cameras upgraded from older formats.
Often abbreviated HD: The game looks so much better in HD.
As higher resolutions like 4K become common, HD increasingly denotes the baseline rather than the premium.
