In the age of high density displays, fractional scaling is a must. It's the first thing people will encounter that indicates that a DE is antiquated.
On a 11" display at 1920x1080, the alternative is to suffer resolution mismatch (which can introduce any number of artifacts depending on how the panel handles the input, the least of which is a blurry/fuzzy display) or drop the resolution fractionally for pixel accurate rendering.
I did not buy a 11" laptop with a FHD display to browse at 960x540.
- Wowfunhappy 5y agoThis is why I’m totally against using such high resolutions on such small displays in the first place. Sure fractional scaling would help—but sticking to a perfectly reasonable 900p or even 768p would look even better _and_ save battery and processing power! (Remember, we’re talking about an 11" laptop. 1366x768 is perfectly reasonable at that size; totally different from the crappy 15" devices that use that resolution to cheap out.)
- sgc 5y agoThat is only 140 ppi. It's not terrible, but it is tiring on the eyes. 1080p at 11 inches is 200ppi. That is not too much for people to ask.
