There is enough confusion between horizontal resolutions (2K, 4K etc.) and vertical ones (1080p, 2160p etc.). This is not helping; why even print a promotional sticker with a number of pixels smaller than what it should be?
Kerning is important.
Just click the right arrow to scale it up?
You have to swipe, boomer
Don’t the outward pointing arrows indicate it’s a widescreen format? That would be my interpretation.
I had an Acer of the same series with that sticker. When that notebook was produced, 2k or 4k was not a thing. We were in the era of transitioning from what we called “HD-Ready” or 720p to “FullHD” or 1080p. These numbers refer to the rows, so the horizontal resolution. At least for me that number is pretty clear I immediately know what it means. I bought that notebook in late 2018 I highly doubt this sticker exists anymore.
The era I’m talking about is like 5-8 years ago btw
These numbers refer to the rows, so the horizontal resolution.
Yes, that is the number of rows. But that makes it the vertical resolution. There’s 1080 pixels from top to bottom. If the arrows/triangles are indicating the direction of measurement, they are wrong.
I suspect that it’s an attempt at indicating a wide screen. 16:9, 16:10 etc was fairly new at the time, many buyers would be expecting their usual 4:3 screen ratio.
This is how one outs themselves as a teenager these days huh?
I don’t think the point is the number. The point is that the arrows indicate the width, which is 1920 pixels. But the numbers indicate the height (1080 pixels)
So the sticker is mildly infuriating by having the arrows not correspond to the number, which is the topic of this community.
