What is full hd?

A product promoting itself as Full HD offers a resolution of 1920 x 1080.
So what do these numbers mean?

The first number (1920) refers to the number of pixels across a screen, while the second number (1080) refers to the number of horizontal lines or pixels down a screen.

Computer monitors
Some modern widescreen liquid crystal display (LCD), most widescreen cathode ray tube (CRT), and all QXGA monitors can natively display 1080p content. Widescreen WUXGA monitors for example support 1920×1200 resolution, which can display a pixel for pixel reproduction of the 1080p (1920×1080) format. The resolution is rare, but increasing in popularity amongst laptops in 2009; some laptops have a 13″, 15″, 17″ or even a 18.4″ display that run a resolution of 1920×1200 or 1920×1080. Additionally, many 23, 24, and 27-inch (690 mm) widescreen LCD monitors use 1920×1200 as their native resolution, 30 inch displays can display beyond 1080p at up to 2560×1600 (1600p). Many 27″ monitors have native resolutions of 2560×1440 and hence operate at 1440p. Other 1080p-compatible LCDs have lower than 1920×1080 native resolution and cannot display 1080p pixel for pixel, relying on the display’s internal scaler to produce an image resized to suit the display’s actual resolution.
