The System76 Lemur Pro is light, thin, repairable, and upgradeable. It’s the best Linux laptop we’ve tested.

    1920×1080 FH

    Not 2k. Not 16:9.

    How isn’t that 19:9?

    And QHD isn’t really necessary on a laptop imo.

    I still won’t buy it though.

      I have had 1080, 4k, & 2k laptops in my life. 1080 text is blurry. 4k is obviously overkill wasting battery on pixels you can’t see. 2k has crisp text without so much wasted density & you have to get unreasonably close to the panel to tell the difference.

        1080p is 2k. From Wikipedia: “2K resolution is a generic term for display devices or content having a horizontal resolution of approximately 2,000 pixels.[1] In the movie projection industry, Digital Cinema Initiatives is the dominant standard for 2K output and defines a 2K format with a resolution of 2048 × 1080.[2][3] For television and consumer media, 1920 × 1080 is the most common 2K resolution, but this is normally referred to as 1080p.” (emphasis mine)

          You are correct.

          I meant “2.8K (2880 × 1800)” or thereabouts but misremembered the naming.
