It saddens and maddens me to know that you're right.
As long there will be people buying gaming laptops, the world will stay terrible.
>>53494370
it is for desktop monitors.
laptops still can't fucking shake "LE HDEE" WXGA
>>53494524
Samsung laptops, specifically. A few XPS systems as well.
Honestly as long as the laptop has a PPI of at least 100 then resolution doesn't really matter desu if you're on a budget (provided it doesn't go below 720p).
768p on a 15.6" screen is ~100 ppi and 720p on a 12" screen is ~122 ppi FYI.
Also cheap ~$300-400 laptops use cheap components to encourage people to get more expensive laptops, deal with it.

you get what you pay for you cheap fuck
>>53494350
1920x1080
>>53494553
to continue the FYI: 768p on 15.6" is bad, the pixels can easily and clearly be distinguished from each other. I've seen a few of these screens so far and it's been the same with all of these things with these specs. 768 on 13 is okay I guess (haven't seen that yet myself), 768 on 11 is really sharp and crisp.

Yeah but your face won't be as close to a 15.6 inch screen as you would be to a 13 inch screen. PPI on laptops is a very complex and not easily resolved issue. On top of this the goat herder was right, the jews give laptop this resolution to entice you to buy one of their more expensive laptops with 1080p res or 1440p res screens.
>>53494603
/thread
>>53494730
Yes it would. I don't know about your anatomy, but my arms stay the same length, no matter what PPI my screen has.
However, I get what you mean. 1366x768 on 11 inch is perfect in my opinion, but it's definitely smaller text at which you have to look harder. However, there's text zoom control nearly everywhere and also DPI scaling, so it doesn't really matter anyway.
This DPI issue will probably be the only reason will Google will eventually dominate the OS market. Android is the first OS ever, that was designed with variable DPI in mind from the beginning.
PCs, Macs and desktop Linux desktop system with DPI scaling are only modded.
The issue is bigger than most consumerists can comprehend.
Usually visual communication to the user is done 100% via the screen. How you handle the screen is of utter importance.
There are already very interesting and detailed papers about this.
Because it's just stupid the way it is right now. Text on a DIN A4 sheet isn't bigger than text on a DIN A3 sheet, it can be scaled and nobody ever doubted this. With screens this is different. Why?

It's more than obvious that they're actively getting the fuck out of the PC market.
normies are the huge majority and frown up stationary computers and only want shiny phones and tablets, even to do "work" on.
I highly doubt you will be able to buy "consumer grade" PCs and parts in 10 years. This stuff will go back to the professional niches and will be expensive as fuck.
The PC is dead.
You know higher resolutions are just a meme from nVidia/AMD/Intel to get you to buy newer GPUs right?

>tfw 1280x800

>>53496777
If you're cool with 16:9 then go for it, but personally I use a smaller 1680x1050 monitor as my main with a 1920x1080 monitor as my secondary mainly because I prefer the aspect ratio
>>53496874
But why do you prefer it is it easier on the eyes?
>>53496884
I just find 16:9 to suck for anything but watching modern movies and TV shows, I value vertical space far more

>>53496993
no.
1792x768 or 1680x720 is a more likely resolution.
>>53494648
I really don't understand why phones have such high pixel density or even 1080p
>>53497100
The argument is that you hold it closer to your face so it should have a higher PPI, but personally I don't see anything over 720x1280 being necessary.
>>53497027
and that's exactly the reason why powerful computers will vanish.
most of the time computers were more powerful than necessary for the average people.
now, all they want is their daily entertainment and communication shit and for that those mobile devices are perfect.
since I have to rely on actually (semi)powerful computers to do graphical work, I hate to see this trend. not sure if I will be able to afford professional hardware once pleb (but ok performing) hardware vanished.
>>53497163
On a 5+ inch display I can easily see difference between 720 and 1080, especially when reading manga.

I think you can also play the real Doom if you set your SDL output to aalib or libcaca. Might look kinda funky at 80x25 though, but with a slighly bigger text resolution it should be playable. Most BIOS support text resolutions like 80x43, or even up to 132x50. I mean in pure text (not using framebuffer or svgalib).

More vertical space. 16:9 is only good for movies and 16:10 is only good if you watch movies and it's your only monitor, more of a compromise aspect ratio. 5:4 and 4:3 are god tier
>>53501630

Yes there is. 768p is often assumed to be 1366x768 (standard 16:9 ratio). The p in 720p stands for progressive to differentiate from interlaced displays (which have a standard 4:3 ratio).
Whenever people mention things like 900p, 1080p, 540p, etc, they are referring to a progressive display (ie not CTR display) with a ratio of 16:9.

I have a feeling that professional computers are going to end up being huge beefy machines, where no one gives a fuck about aesthetics and the consumer grade stuff will devolve into super simple sleek devices.
Most likely tablets that you can simply snap into some docking device when you're at home and extremely simplified apps connected to everything.
Reminds me a bit of how things used to be in the past.
Professional hardware used to be pretty monstrous compared to consumer grade computers, I think we're returning to that model in the near future.

wait for a T221 to come up on ebay, or basically kill yourself because no one makes them. keep in mind the t221 has a lot of issues, it doesn't have DVI inputs, you need a custom made converter, and to get the full 4k at 60Hz you need to mod the PCB as well as use TWO DUAL LINK DVI cables, and they must be running off a CAD card like the nvidia quadro 2000 or better since these are the only cards that support both dual link DVI and the mosaic feature that lets you use two ports as a single seamless display.

This desu senpais. Even Win10 and the latest OSX still have trouble rendering in HDPI and have to resort to solutions hacked together with duct tape so everything doesn't look fucking tiny. In the linux side, AFAIK only Gnome devs are taking HDPI seriously and trying to have some kind of support out of the box.
I have a 1440p 27" monitor and stuff is dancing in the fine line of "one less point in font size and this is fucking impossible to read". This very same resolution or similar in an HDPI laptop (12"-15" or so) would look horrible and controls imposssible to click unless you apply 150-200% scaling which looks blurry as hell, like a simple jpeg upscale was performed even on the fonts.

>As long there will be people buying gaming laptops, the world will stay terrible.
Gaming laptops have had 1080p as standard for at least four years by now Anon, and I can only recall those sub-14" notebooks having less, or a cheap rebrand of an old 768.
The only consumers who are pushing the tech industry forwards right now are proffesionals, gamers and video/audiophiles.
Mac consumers don't count since Apple is pushing the quality for them and they have no idea what resolution is despite being able to repeat "Retina" all over our faces.
>>53497100
Dead pixels are more of an issue on smaller/thinner display and sometimes the quality controls go by a flat %, which higher res screens will benefit from since they have more pixels that are allowed to be dead without getting a warranty claim. Even if its a flat rate (can typically be around 4-10 maximum allowed dead pixels per screen) the size and density of all those pixels makes it harder to see them and thus they get less warranty claims because the consumer does not notice them.
I personally have about a dozen of dead pixels on my refurbished 1080p 4,7" phone and I can't see them unless I load up a completely black image and bring the phone near my face, compared to my old 3,5" phone which had 480x320p resolution and just one dead pixel that was annoying as fuck since it was much larger and noticeable on daily usage.
Second argument is that bigger numbers sells better and can more easily motivate sales.
Personally I don't think you need more than 1080p on a phone, 720p is perfectly fine for 4 to 5 inch displays, maybe 1440 on a 6" phone but its more about a small quality overkill. Going above will only be justifiable if VR works good for media consumption.
>>53494350
