A bit OT, but I've always found that beyond 2560x1440, I can't really tell the difference on a laptop-size screen. If anything, the only 4K laptop I've owned was a bit more troublesome than the 1440p ones because so many applications had scaling issues that I had to deal with.

Fully agreed and on the other hand once you get used to 2560x1440 (QHD), lower resolution laptop is a real bummer regardless of the screen size. This also applies to desktop monitor and as you grow older the phone screen as well. Strangely, the entry level Samsung Galaxy S20 phone screen is regressing from QHD+ to 1080p in the S22 after two years, and the recently released flagship ROG 6 pro phone from Asus also stucked at 1080p.

Yep! 1080p is unfortunately now unbearable to me for monitors and laptops, although thankfully I have not reached the point yet where I'm this picky about phone screens
