Hello. I know this isn’t completely related to Linux, but I was still curious about it.
I’ve been looking at Linux laptops and one that caught my eye from Tuxedo had 13 hours of battery life on idle, or 9 hours of browsing the web. The thing is, that device had a 3k display.
My question is, as someone used to 1080p and someone that always tries to maximise the battery life out of a laptop, would downscaling the display be helpful? And if so, is it even worth it, or are the benefits too small to notice?
I don’t think upscaling the text/UI and downscaling the whole screen are the same thing.
The one usually works best with the other, though.
EDIT: nm, I see what you were getting at in their comment now. They also meant downscaling the Text/UI, not upscaling.
