Widescreen vs Full Screen. Due to the introduction of HDTVs, there are now two basic types of TV screens; the widescreen format and the full screen. The main difference between the two is the aspect ratio that they use. Full screen uses an aspect ratio of 4:3, which means that it is 1.33 times wider than it is high.
