Upscaling vs enlarging
Both make an image bigger. Upscaling targets a specific multiple (2×, 3×, 4×) to reach a resolution required by a platform or print size. Quality depends on the source: a sharp 1000 px photo upscaled 2× looks far better than a blurry thumbnail upscaled 4×.
Print size guide
For printing at 300 DPI, a 10 × 15 cm (4 × 6 in) print needs about 1200 × 1800 px; an A4 or Letter print needs about 2500 × 3500 px. Upscaling helps you reach these sizes, though it cannot add true detail that was never captured.
