Bad resolution screen mirroring on iPad

I’m using. 9th gen ipad and i’m struggling with bad resolution when using wired screen mirroring. It’s so pixelated no matter what i try. The one thing that i haven’t tried yet is getting another hdmi cable. If it will change the resolution and make it better please suggest me a good caple or another wired method that will give me better resolution. (Wireless screen mirroring is not an option due to unstable and mostly bad internet connection) thanks in advance!

Consider the resolution of the attached monitor may not be adequate for your needs. When used with a larger screen, the effective resolution (pixels per inch - PPI) reduces as the screen becomes larger for specific screen resolution (e.g. 1920 x 1080). Your iPad9 has a screen resolution of 2160 x 1620 (i.e., 264 PPI for a 10.2" screen).

When using an external monitor/TV, you may need to use a monitor with a higher resolution (e.g. 4K - 3840 x 2160 ) if you are to preserve an acceptable (or near equivalent) PPI.

You may find this calculator to be helpful in computing the PPI for a given screen resolution/size.
