with the 3 windows phone resolution :

  • 480 × 800
  • 768 × 1280
  • 720 × 1280

that are scaled to :

  • 480 × 800
  • 480 × 800
  • 480 × 853

What is the size for the image that I should use (admit I want to have a full screen image and that I ignore the 720p resolution) ?

480×800 and use <Image Source="..." />

768×1280 and use <Image Source="..." Width="480" Height="800" />

Using a 768×1280 image and scalling it to 480×800 is usefull ?

Thanks for your answer

    Yes. You should always go for a WXGA resolution image, and let the OS downscale it for you. (The scale is roughly 1.6).

    Also, you should never specify a static width/height in XAML, if you can avoid it.
