The display quality of a 14 inch 1800p oled at 120Hz (asus, lenovo, dell all offer this) is honestly a league above the 60Hz IPS panel the air has had for way too long now.

In response time, vibrance, smoothness, contrast ratio, and even display size at the same overall weight.

This year, you're starting to see tandem oleds too, which are even better than those. Do some more research, and don't just blindly regurgitate statements. Display quality?? That's the one thing macbook airs have lost out on for many generations at this point.

My M2 has a Retina Display and I had zero issues with it. I am lost to what statements I regurgitated.

This: "don't get me started on display quality"

Suggesting that the windows alternatives are somehow behind in display quality. The macbook air's display is fine (but definitely not class leading) for the price, but even comparing the newest M5 airs to the M1 macbook pro 14, it's not nearly as premium.

It's a baseless comment that just derails actual technical comparison and discussion about how good laptop screens in general have gotten. Especially with OLEDs/miniLEDs/touchscreens/high-refresh screens all becoming increasingly widespread.

OK, let me rephrase my issues with Windows laptops:

- most displays that I've seen on Thinkpads (the ones used at work) are not that great

- For the ones with higher resolutions, Windows scaling makes the windows look weird. What I mean by this is that either the fonts are too small or too big. What I like about the retina displays is that the fonts look just right.

I hope this clears up what I meant by the previous comment.
