17.3" QHD (2560x1440) is finally available!

#1 Post by pianowizard » Tue Aug 20, 2019 9:52 am

I recently learned that the latest Alienware 17 laptop has a 17.3" 2560x1440 option, corresponding to 169.8 DPI:

I still prefer the LG Gram 17's 17.0" 2560x1600, whose 177.6 DPI is also low enough that I wouldn't need scaling, but both are excellent resolutions for productivity on a laptop.

For 3840x2160 to work comfortably at the default scaling, I would want the screen to be at least 24" (183.6 DPI).
Dell Latitude 7370 (QHD+, 2.84lb); HP Pavilion x2 12-b096ms (1920x1280, 3.14lb); Microsoft Surface 3 (1920x1280, 2.00lb);
Dell OptiPlex 5040 SFF (Core i5-6600); Acer ET322QK, T272HUL; Crossover 404K; QNIX QHD2410R; Seiki Pro SM40UNP
