| Measured fixture results | Tested scale: 4× | Tested scale: 2× |
| Fixture findings | The tested 4× photo configuration produced smooth output with text retained; other settings remain untested. | Downloaded a watermark-free 1024px image; the preview watermark was absent from the saved file. |
| Original historical observation | Configured to Photo + 4x + Low Noise Reduction, Bigjpg exported a clean 2048×2048 PNG scoring PSNR = 28.27 dB and SSIM = 0.9790 with smooth tonal transitions and zero generative hallucinations. | Aiseesoft Image Upscaler Online displays a preview watermark to prevent right-click scraping but honors its caption 'After saving, the image has no watermark': clicking Save exports a clean 1024×1024 PNG scoring PSNR = 27.03 dB and sign ROI PSNR = 30.32 dB. |
| Suitable uses · historical assessment | Users wanting a no-login, zero-watermark 4x (2048px) upscaler with 5-level adjustable noise reduction for photos and illustrations | Users needing a no-login, watermark-free 2x image upscaler with high text fidelity |
