I wish we'd have more 2k laptops; for me that's the sweet spot. 1080p decidedly too little, 4k overkill.
But then I'm one of those people who run with really small fonts, apparently.
- leephillips 5y agoThat’s one of several reasons I still like my 2013 Google Chromebook Pixel (runs normal Linux pretty well).
- Darmody 5y agoYou have now some with 3k resolution, 16:10 ratio. I hope we get to see more of those.
- toast0 5y agoFWIW, 4k is X x 2160 (where X is usually somewhere between 4096 (4k) and 3840), so 1080p which is usually 1920 x 1080 is effectively 2k. It looks like there are some 1440p and 1800p standardish resolutions that probably make sense as a middle ground.

- 3np 5y agoHuh, seems I'm confused with the terminology. Min 1440p is what I'm referring to, in either case.
- toast0 5y agoThat's because the terminology is dumb! Or at least, very misleading, since it's anchored on a different part of the spec than the previous dominant terminology
- fomine3 5y agoI strongly against to call 2560px 2K. It should be wrong and confusing. 4K is came from 3840 or 4096px. 4K/2=2K, so 2K should refer near 1920 to 2048px, so naturally the standard FHD 1920. 2560px must not be called as 2K. It's even near 3K if rounded. Sadly some smartphone manufacturers call 2560px 2K.
