I'm shopping for a new laptop and struggling BIG TIME with the lack of 1920x1200 resolution. I can accept the lame 1920x1080 resolution a little easier if I knew that when docked it could still drive my 2 24" monitors at 1920x1200 but I can't find in the specifications where they would cover this.
So my question: Typically speaking, when a laptop states a max resolution of 1920x1080 is that a limitation of the graphics card/chip or the LCD screen? If the latter, is it reasonable to think that when docked the external monitors could enjoy a higher resolution?
Bonus: I'm a programmer. I know there are lots of us out there. Are you all as annoyed with the lack of 1920x1200 resolution options as I am?? Those 120 pixels make a big difference!
Most nowadays laptops has HDMI port, so you even don't need a dock station. Most laptops support different modes for external monitor 1:1 (the same resolution as on primary laptop display) or extended. When you use it in extended mode then laptop video card will use maximum resolution that external monitor can handle. – Alex – 2017-01-09T07:42:37.850
