Choosing a display size for T440s

Is there a consensus as to what display size is ideal in the T440s? Is FHD workable without scaling?

Are the 4400 graphics good enough? I kind of wish for 5100 or 5200.

The only display that makes sense IMO is FHD, since it's AHVA/IPS. Other options are TN.

Everything else depends on one's own eyesight and OS used. There is no "one size fits all" answer in this respect.

Thanks. The IPS thing makes it an easy call. I am too spoiled by my phone and tablet. I won't have another non-IPS display.

Still, if you're going to use Windows, maybe the HD+ on 14" is the right choice. Worse screen, but less/none scaling issues.

It's gonna be a Mac. I got approval today for one of those. I haven't used a Mac since having a Powerbook back in the early 1990s. It'll be interesting to make the adjustment again, but in the reverse direction.
