People’s preference for certain screen sizes has resulted in a number of new tablet models with 10.1-inch, 12.3-inch, 13.3-inch and even larger screens coming to market. While most of these tablets target users who prefer small and portable devices, some manufacturers have embraced the 120-inch diagonal display size as well. So what are the advantages of using a 120-inch diagonal touch screen? In this article we’ll explore the salient pros and cons of choosing a 120-inch diagonally integrated touch screen display over its smaller counterparts.
What’s the difference between a 10.1-inch and 120-inch touch screen?
The most obvious difference between 10.1-inch and 120-inch touch screens is the size of the former. While a 10.1-inch panel can render images with a resolution of up to 1920 x 1200 pixels, a 120-inch panel has a native resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels. This means 120-inch panels can display images with a higher pixel density, which leads to sharper images and more detailed graphics. Another important difference between 10.1-inch and 120-inch touch screens is the aspect ratio of the displays. While the aspect ratio of a 10.1-inch panel is 16:9, that of a 120-inch panel is 5:3. This means a 120-inch panel can show images of up to 5x more vertical real estate compared to a 10.1-inch panel. This has several advantages such as the ability to show more content (like more pages on a website) or more content vertically such as more text or more images.
Advantages of 120-inch touch screen displays
One of the primary advantages of using a 120-inch touch screen is the fact that it is one of the largest sizes available on the market today. This means manufacturers can incorporate a variety of features into a large display such as increased real estate for more content or more space for vertical content such as more text or images. One of the unique advantages of using a 120-inch display is the ability to show images and text with a higher pixel density. This means images and text displayed on a 120-inch touch screen will appear sharper than those on a 10.1-inch touch screen. The increased vertical real estate provided by a 120-inch touch screen makes it helpful for displaying more content like more text or more images. For instance, a computer with a 120-inch touch screen can show a website with 16 pages while a 10.1-inch touch screen can only show 10 pages.
Disadvantages of 120-inch touch screen displays
One of the disadvantages of using a 120-inch touch screen is the increased cost associated with producing screens of this size. This is because the larger size requires larger panels to be used, which increases production and distribution costs. To offset these costs, manufacturers who choose to use a 120-inch display will need to increase the price of their device or look at alternate methods to generate revenue such as advertising. Another disadvantage of 120-inch touch screens is the fact that it can be difficult for users with smaller hands to operate a device with a 120-inch display. This is because it requires users to stretch their hands outward to operate the on-screen buttons.
Which type of display should you choose?
If you’re considering a 120-inch touch screen, you’ll want to consider the pros and cons of the two most popular sizes, 120-inch and 85-inch. The first thing to consider is the purpose of the device. If the tablet will primarily be used for internet browsing, watching videos or playing games, a 120-inch display is probably overkill. Furthermore, the increased cost and difficulty of operating a 120-inch touch screen at a distance can make it difficult for people with smaller hands to use the device efficiently. If you primarily want to use the device for viewing photos, watching movies or working with documents, a 120-inch touch screen is still overkill, but smaller screens won’t be nearly as useful.
