Still, 13". That's too small for serious work, even if it super high resolution - that's only 1/4 of the surface area of a decent monitor.

- bruce_one 10y agoAll a matter of personal preference :-) (I've been 100% on a 12.6" screen for the last year; and was 11" for 3+ years before that (and only moved to the 12.6 because I couldn't find anything smaller that was as powerful as I wanted).) I'm always hoping for more A4-paper-sized (or smaller) powerful laptops (and I think this is the best option at the moment (just over, but close enough :-) )).
- pawadu 10y agoBut how can you comfortably code on 11"? I mean, sure it is doable but is it worth the shoulder and back ache it will eventually give you?
- combatentropy 10y ago11.6" is a good size when the laptop is in your lap, especially in bed. The screen is less than two feet away.
- pawadu 10y agoBut we are talking "developer edition". Do you code laying down in bed? (not that what you suggest is very ergonomic anyways)
- hbcondo714 10y agoI personally find the size of 11'' and 13'' screens to be fine but their cramped keyboards cause aches in my fingers and wrists after a hour of coding
