Minimum screen res for Mobile Internet – Poll.

Posted on 02 December 2008 by Chippy



Pocketables are running a poll today and want you to tell them what you think the minimum resolution for mobile Internet is. I haven’t been over there to vote or look at results yet but I’m guessing that VGA will probably win with WVGA close behind it. For a full, productive web experience, WVGA (800×480) is the real minimum but the mass-market out there is driven more by marketing, device size, style and pocketability than by real productivity.

    Hi, i do think that the minimum usable screen resolution is 1024*600 I would be ready to pay 50$ more on somethin like the samsung nc10 to get an even better resolution. Because most of the websites today are in 1024*768 I always have to scroll down. Some people might thing that with an higher resolution the text would be too little to be read, but on a 10 inches netbook it sure would be easy to read. I wish the Everun note was 10in i would buy it anytime.
