I wouldn't want a computer, be it laptop or desktop, with anything less than full HD. If something appears too small you can always zoom it bigger (ideally by an integer factor so that no interpolation is necessary and it won't appear "pixelated").
Since many years I have a 17 inch Macbook Pro with even more pixels than full HD (1920x1200) and would rather have more than less.

My wife has a recent M1 MacBook Pro with only 14 inch screen size, but a "liquid retina" display with 3024x1964 pixels. This is with a very wide margin the best computer screen I have ever seen. Absolutely marvellous. And you can watch videos in full resolution for 17 hours on a single battery charge. As soon as I find the money somewhere I will buy the 16 inch model (unfortunately Apple does not make 17 inch any more) which has 3456x2234 pixels and even more battery life. This is almost four times full HD.
