    Hi,
    I am in the market for a new laptop.
    I've been using a 13" screened laptop for a while but am considering something larger.
    Is there much difference in everyday usability between a 13.3", 14" or 15.6" screens? I get by with the 13" just now with maschine. Just wondering whether it's worth going bigger or not.
    I've been considering a 13.3" HP Elitebook.

    I dont notice any difference between 13.3" and 14" but to 15.6" the size increase is quite noticeable.

    Consider how often you carry it around, if it doesn't leave the house often then a bigger screen can be nice to have, 15" models usually have more powerful components too but also more expensive. If you move around a lot 13/14" might be more practical. It's just a matter of taste really.

    Thank you.
    My laptop barely leaves the house so might get some benefit out of a 15".
    HP ZBook topping the list just now.
