Mouse Resolution What does resolution or sensitivity mean when applied to mouse settings?

The higher the resolution, the more detail is displayed. For a mouse, resolution indicates the number of dots on the screen that the cursor moves for every inch that you move the mouse. For this reason, mouse resolution is typically listed as dots per inch (dpi).
