| Measured fixture results | Tested scale: 4× | Tested scale: 1.46× |
| Fixture findings | The tested 4× photo configuration produced smooth output with text retained; other settings remain untested. | Texture was retained in this fixture; free output was only 750px, about 1.46× enlargement. |
| 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. | PSNR=27.61dB (#1 highest pixel PSNR overall) · SSIM=0.8955 (#1 highest structural similarity overall); Edge gradient correlation edge_corr=0.6353 (#3 overall, +6.97% over Bicubic); hf_ratio=0.4482 (constrained by the free tier's 750×750 1.46x resolution cap); Calibration plate PSNR=16.01dB (#2 overall): exceptional fidelity with zero hallucinated artifacts on the wood sign or grating. |
| 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 prioritizing top pixel fidelity (highest PSNR/SSIM) who are satisfied with 750px free previews or willing to spend credits for 1024px HD |
