No wonder that you are always spamming the same irrelevant and incorrect s*** about 2.5K when you don't even have one, lmao. Sad...

youtu.be/FjU_x1106pg?t=707
We look at the treetops from 11:48 in 1080p and then in 4k.
Quote from: Neenyah on May 12, 2024, 16:25:32Stupid bot with a carefully chosen example. I can easily give an example where the difference is visible in dynamics, and not in statics, where it is also clearly visible.Quote from: NikoB on May 12, 2024, 15:41:30Quote from: Victor Lilley on May 12, 2024, 13:35:12It would be more useful to me, having already bought it, if it made concrete suggestions, on a external monitor, that would overcome the disadvantages of the internal screen, bearing in mind the limitations of the current graphics card.From my comment you can already draw a practical conclusion when watching YouTube - never choose a resolution lower than 4k (if available) on a 2.5k screen
1080p on a 2.5K screen: imgur.com/Wvpieqm
2160p on a 2.5K screen: imgur.com/NDvnXDm
Striking difference... Not.

The same goes for any streaming service.

With me facing the sun, the screen was disappointingly grey for a pdf of a Word file. So not as bright as the photo in the article. I checked the contrast and it was a bit over half. I increased it to maximum and it was OK. It remains to be seen if that causes a large drain on the battery. It occurs to me I might be able to turn it down a bit. As it is 500 nits average I expected the contrast to be set in the middle and that would be 500 nits. But the maximum is only 528 nits. Then one would have expected the maximum to be more, given the minimum is zero. So I don't understand. The Windows background being black was virtutally invisible. Have changed this to white so hepfully OK when we, in the UK get some more sun. I tried a tropical island HD 1080 video from Youtube to run down the battery and was impressed by the quality of the display. It was as if I could touch the sand and feel the breeze.

This is a proven fact, because The bitrate per 1 pixel, even in the premium version, is much lower than the bitrate in 4k resolution on a 2.5k screen.
Moreover, on a 2.5K screen there will never be the same pixel sharpness of fhd video as on fhd and 4k/8k screens, as well as the ideal pixel sharpness of 4k video for the same reason - hardware incompatibility of 4k/fhd video with 2.5k resolution pixel level.
So what did you see there in the blocky mess at 1080p, quite a funny question...Quote from: Victor Lilley on May 06, 2024, 19:21:46The Windows background being black was virtutally invisible.What's true in complete darkness? With a mediocre contrast of 1200:1? ;)
