Interesting. Personally, I was thinking what "Dev" would be okay with only Full HD (on a 14" Laptop) in 2022. Edit: I should have been more clear, I am not confused about the estate (which seems fine for 14") but about the lack of higher DPI.

Many or even most. I find that HN is really not representative in this matter.

  In your mind, what is the unique selling point of this device? Who buys it over everything else out there and for what reason?

    Good build, brightness, battery life, expandable, & supported by the best & only kernel worth a damned, at a very reasonable price. If i had stupid amounts of money there's a lot of really really nice laptops. X1 carbon or a zbook or firefly or whatever. But this ticks most of the boxes, does a damned fine job, & costs a reasonable amount. And it runs a real os.

    I would be tempted by the 1000 nits display and the weight. I'm OK with 1080p but I'd like 16:10 or 3:2. Unfortunately it's only 14" and only two mouse buttons. 15", 3 buttons and no numberpad and I'd consider it as a replacement for my ZBook from 2014 when it will die. Hopefully there will be time for some new generations and variants of this product and hopefully HP is reading these threads.

I usually keep chat or email on the laptop screen (just fine for that resolution and screen size), then connect a couple more with a lot more real estate and do my coding on those.

  I was more thinking along the lines of high DPI than estate. You don't care about that?

    Haven't ever paid much attention to DPI, no.

You'll find devs who would be okay with a 720p screen just because "muh battery life". Sure, I mean, go ahead with that but at least provide an option for others who need a highdpi 2x integer scaled display. I refuse to use a laptop without a highdpi screen.

I usually would be plugged into a 4k120p display on a nice monitor arm. On the go, I'd have a good small font that works for me & be using sway to economize screen-space. That I can use a relatively compact computer, for a long time, outdoors has a bigger impact on me. I dont know how this unit's 1000nits compares to MBP but it's definitely better than 99% of the market & this would totally work for me. Yes I would like like more res. But I also would make this work & appreciate the battery gains & want the brightness & good colors.
