It seems like what was ruined was your monkey intellect, retard.

>>59367588
i guess he's referring to scaling (which does actually suck on Windows) but you don't need scaling for 1080p with a 14" monitor, which is objectively the best laptop screen size

>>59366316
It's okay, honestly anything else too big will be small and scaling will make the resolution look like shit.

I don't understand, is this what being legally blind feels like?

768p looks like absolute garbage if you're not blind
1080p is "acceptable" but you can still tell the text isn't sharp at all
4k looks very sharp

>>59367842

I would if there were 12k laptops available, and I sure as fuck wouldn't be defending 4k over 12k on some chinese forum.

>>59366348
Oh look, it's a namefag with a dumb opinion.

I think it is a perfect resolution for a laptop. I have a laptop with 1366x768 and one with 1920x1080. the pixels per inch is higher on the 1920x1080 obviously, but it has some issues. not everything scales nicely to the higher dpi. you can set it to either not scale or scale, but scaling is blurry and honestly looks worse than at 1366x768.
if you don't scale, the it is still inconsistent in how it looks.

>>59367912
> when libreboot is released for it.
So, never?

I don't like it on the X220, but I can live with it.

My issue is TN. It really, really pisses me off when I have to keep readjusting the screen because it looks like ass.

1366x768 was terrible on my 11.6" netbook. The fact that people are defending this shit is just proof that you retards will argue about anything. The only argument for lower resolutions is that it enables better battery life, but 1080p is not going to kill your battery.

>>59368096
whats blurry though? show me these blurs.

>fucking 2017
>not using wqhd

Goddamn plebs!

>>59368259
Lower resolutions are actually beneficial on small displays because they eliminate the need for scaling. I've used a 1366x768 12" laptop for 4 years as my only computer and I was fine with it. Text was small and relatively sharp. I couldn't stand 1080p at that size. Nothing would be readable

>1366x768
>not 1366x1366
What are you? A pleb?

>>59366348
It's not even 16:9, retard.

>>59368316
This is literally what I've been trying to tell people for quite some time. At that size you're getting 120PPI with 768p. That's the acceptable maximum if you want to go without scaling. I have always considered 90PPI (24 inch 1080p) as my sweet spot though.

>>59367746
Scaling is fine on W10. I have a XPS15 with close to 4k resolution and most programs look perfectly fine. The resolution is extremely overkill but reading text and writing code is so much better on this screen than just about any other screen I've used.

>>59367314
Define sweetspot

>>59368428
>W10
so you're forced to use windows 10 if you choose a higher resolution. that's too much of a tradeoff. there is currently no Linux DE that can handle scaling well, and don't get me started on Windows 7

you'll end up scaling everything to the same size as a 1366x768 display would have anyways. at least on a 12 inch display. on a 14" you might scale it to match 900p. in that case you could have just bought a 900p display

If you increase resolution you'll end up with more lines of code, but in turn they'll be so small you can't even read them. If you scale up you'd decrease the amount of lines again. A 12" device is not suited for programming, retard. At least not in a 16:9ish form factor.

Well, 7's scaling isn't bad, it's the same as in 10. 7 actually has two different scaling methods, legacy and the one from 10. That beig said, I'd still take a screen where scaling isn't needed, especially on portable devices, such as a laptop. It's a lot easier on the GPU which means less heat.

It looks bad. Wallpapers and fullscreen applications get stretched out too much.

However, it could be beneficial to someone who needs a cheap side-monitor if used in portrait mode. Using it as a main monitor is distasteful.

Yeah screens and keyboards just seem to get worse and worse, compared to the rest of the machine, as time goes on. Weird, the two most-used parts are the two lowest quality

>>59371871
But my eyes :(

What is a good CRT? I had to give up my 85Hz LG Flatron because it was hurting my eyes, and even a shitty low-end 60Hz LCD is a breeze is comparison.

>>59372885
I'm fine with TN panels, limited viewing angles can be a bit annoying at times but I can read text comfortably on it and I don't care about color accuracy since I don't work in design or similar.

>1080p and 1440p are the only resolutions worth shit.
>4k is good goy bullshit
depends on size, but it's generally not worth an upgrade from 1080p to 1440p, 4K is objectively better for things like image editing.

>anything sub 1080p is literally kill yourself tier.
this is true

>>59372908
>attenuated
lol

i bet you like to shoot photos through uncoated lenses so your images aren't attenuated either

>>59368953
Dunno m8, I use 900p @14", code with bitmap fonts @8pts is pretty readable. 800p @12.5" was shit. I'd kill for a 1080p 12" laptop now.

>>59369214
how did you do this?

I have a 27" 4k monitor and windows 7 is unuseable.

>>59373352
You can try asking /vr/ on their CRT general, they are pretty autistic and know everything about that matter

Not forget a lot of webpages and desktop software are too small in 1080 because are designed in 1366x768.

And watch videos is terrible because everything are 720 releases.

>Chinkphones and chinktablets use the same displays as all other devices.

You're actually so fucking wrong, just because companies don't produce their own screens doesn't mean they use the same.

Yes they usually buy them from 3rd parties but one of them buy lower end screens

>>59366316
When I had a 1080p screen I used to lower the resolution to 1024x768 because everything looked too small.

But then the aspect ration was fucked up, and I couldn't use the scaling because I was in Windows and scaling in Windows is literally useless, so I like to have a screen that is natively lower resolution.

Honestly I wish they still sold SD screens, I would be all over that shit, my GPD Win and my phone could do with an SD screen to save battery life while maintaining the correct aspect ratio (tho many desktop apps wouldn't fit on such a screen in the case of the GPD).

>>59374819
When you do that all the text starts piling on top of each other, getting outside the window boundaries and messed up in all kinds of ways.

Scaling in Windows other than the default profiles you have there is pretty useless.

>1440x900 is literally perfect
Fixed that for you.

500 or so PPI for phones, 350-400 or so PPI for monitors is currently the sweet-spot, IMO.

>>59372056
Are you referring to a ruler? or a calculator?

is 1360x768 any better?

>>59366322
How about 420x69? Better?

>>59366316
It's not.

Anyone who regurarly uses this resolution is autistic. If they say they're perfectly happy with it, they're retarded. There's no reason for displays to max out at this resolution in 2017.

>>59366316
Acceptable on small screens and when you're poor.
