What size laptop should I choose? 11, 15 or 17 inches?
Often, we are torn between the choice of comfort of use and the portability of the device, which turns out to be an extremely difficult choice. How to choose your computer? Should we lean towards a minimal screen, or on the contrary opt for the largest screen size resembling a desktop computer but portable?
There are a wide variety of offers on the market today, and computer screens range from a minimum of 11 inches to 17 inches. Customers are therefore spoiled for choice, between density and a display that looks more like a desktop computer. But the most important thing is to know for what uses these various dimensions would be attributed.
A laptop with an 11-inch screen
This type of laptop is rather used by buyers who are looking for the most possible compactness. Ideal for small backpacks or small bags, just a little bit bigger than the screen of the iPad Air 5th generation.
A laptop with a screen between 15-17 inches
For these sizes, comfort is more privileged; we can say that video games are more advantageous with this dimension. The configurations become more loaded, and the weights are between 1.8 to 2 kgs. We are rather approaching the desktop computer accompanied by more powerful graphics cards.
To know the length (or inch) of a laptop, simply divide the centimeter by 2.54. For a laptop length of 36 centimeters, is equivalent to 14.12 inches (36 centimeters divided by 2.54 is equal to 14.17 inches).

It is the screen resolution that defines the pixels by the uniformity of the surface. This is why a larger screen requires a larger (higher) image resolution.
