Would love to see the 16:10 ratio come back in vogue. For the web and with so many productivity apps having a ribbon UI, a little extra vertical real estate makes a huge difference.
- Technetium_Hat 8y agoWhy not just go all the way to 3:2 like the surface laptop? It's better for anything but full screen video.
- zokier 8y ago> It's better for anything but full screen video. Not better for having two windows side by side. Considering that we're talking about 17" laptop here, that isn't especially far fetched use case.
- Aardappel 8y agoSome Chromebooks/Pixels and the MS SurfaceBook have 3:2 for that reason, even better. But why stop there? For predominant web/doc/code usage, I'd dream of having a 1x1 screen laptop! Imagine the Dell XPS 13, same width of screen and keyboard, now bigger vertically to match the width. It'd be physically smaller than a 17" 16:9 machine, yet have more vertical space.
