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.
