FHD or WQHD?

[anon(8709382)]

Soon as I got the phone I put it on WQHD, battery life has been excellent

I can imagine on the regular s8 it won't be so noticable.
On a s8+ however it is.
Besides all that, many games and YouTube clips will run on a lower res. I actually have to check YouTube movies and set them manually higher.

My eyes are 54 years old and with my glasses I definitely see a difference. Wqhd here because fonts look better overall.
Doesn't seem to drain the battery more with normal usage.

My eyes are even older. Use Wqhd and also see a difference in text sharpness without any big hit on my battery.

they have EASY MODE for people having a hard time seeing sharp text in FHD mode everything is super zoomed in ...in easy mode you probably leave the screen in 720))

Question: if I'm casting via wired connection a stored Hi Def movie to my TV does the phone setting matter?

What's everyone using and how's the battery?

I use qhd bc I like the scaling better. 1080 just blows everything up.

There really isn't any difference between the two that I can tell and I have mine set on FHD.
