It's not about smaller text size, it's about clarity, with a proper scaling (like on Mac OS) 4K can have the same font sizes as on smaller resolutions, the clarity tho will be incredibly better.
- ioquatix 10y agoAnd to add to that, higher DPI usually = less inter-pixel gap, which for some people reduces eye-strain.
- philliphaydon 10y agoHuh since when does macOS have 'proper' scaling? I usually only hair complaints... same with windows 10 for old apps.
- usaphp 10y agoCan you give me an example? I've been using retina macbooks since the day they were released, and I've never seen a single issue with scaling...
- philliphaydon 10y agoAh never had issues with my retina mbp or 12". Unless I connected it to an external display. Which is where people seem to complain.
- usaphp 10y agoUsed it with 27 Cinema Display for couple years, never had issues with scaling , now switched to 32 inch 4K from asis and its also working perfect.
- Tepix 10y agomacOS is the only OS that gets it right. You can even drag a window from a HiDPI monitor to an old fashioned one and it will do what's right.
- redm 10y agoThat's personal preference. I prefer more screen real estate over larger font's at higher clarity.
- usaphp 10y agoBut with 8K you can have the same font size as you currently have with 4K but with a better clarity...
