I’d love an air with a high density display.
My mom has an M1 air, and its resolution is not great. Everything looks a bit blurry compared with my 4K Dell XPS my wife’s MacBook Pro m4 display. I guess the air’s native resolution means it has to do fractional scaling.
The Air has about 218dppi screen, but your wife might have a non-integer resolution selected.
Yeah the default doesn't do a 1:1 display to pixel ratio.
Just to be pedantic it is integer scaled (from 1440x900 to 2880x1800 but then resampled down to the native resolution of the MBA 2560x1600 via something better than bilinear).
The m1 air native resolution is 2560x1600 and the 'best for display' default is 1280x800, that's 2x integer scaling. But yeah if you have a different resolution set, it'll be fractional and probably a bit blurry in comparison.
What is going on with the Dells recently?
