1080p is 1920x1080 and 2k is 2560x1440

I would prefer 2K res on a laptop. On a 15 inch screen, 4K is overkill - I have to increase desktop scaling to read text, so there's no increase in screen real estate. Higher res drains the battery faster as well.

I've had a similar experience. I've used their api to send SMS for multiple projects and have no complaints in terms of delivery.

Their web UI is pretty buggy. Certain parts of their control panel sometimes causes my browser tab to freeze. Recently I found that pressing tab caused the page reload when filling out verification info for buying a new number.
