768x1024 too small. What is Max Resolution Nowadays for smallerscreen Tablets

Our software has a 1024x768 minimum, so 768x1024 is not good enough.
So we need 1024 for both horizontal and vertical resolution for
portrait mode.
Do Tablets nowadays accommodate that?

i know one Motion can have really high resolutions. But most LCD
panels max out corresponding to their physical size. 19in LCD does no
more than 1280x1024. Our 3 year old HP tc4400's can only do 1024x768
max, no more. Does the Tablet have to have a real video card to
support higher resolutions?

 

Depends on the brand and model.
My 3yr old Toshiba M400 tablet does 1440x1050 (very high for a 12"
tablet). A lot of the Lenovo tablets only do 1280x800. New HPs are
wide-screen also @ 1280x800.
Most new 12" tablets are at the 1280x800 resolution, WXGA, don't think
anyone is producing any higher resolutions.

All tablets have "real" video cards, if they didn't you'd have no
video. Integrated video cards aren't the limit of your resolution, its
based on the screen they put on the tablet and that is most likely
driven by marketing. What you gain with a discrete video card is
performance.

 

i have an LCD projector that is 1024x768 native, but can extrapolate
to 1280x1024. Hoping for at least something like that provided in a
device driver. Does your Toshiba do 1440x1050 natively or is it
extrapolated?

 

I've never seen or heard of an LCD notebook/tablet screen that can run
at a higher resolution than the native resolution. AFAIK you cannot
run higher than the native resolution on an LCD screen (projectors
excepted).
My Toshiba is native 1440x1050

 

I've never seen or heard of an LCD notebook/tablet screen that can
run at a higher resolution than the native resolution. <<

Used to be true, but not on most of the laptops including cheap netbooks
that I have set up for the past few years... for example, my Fuji tablet
which has a 1024x768 screen, offers

800x600.
1024x768.
1280x720.
1280x768.
1280x1024.
1400x1050.
1600x1200.
1920x1080.
1920x1200.

....for the external monitor.

In addition, you can set the LCD to a higher resolution and then scroll
the additional real estate by moving the mouse past the screen borders.

As Steve indicates, as far as "simulating" a higher resolution in the
available real estate, haven't seen that either.

Yes, for an external monitor, but I specifically said "an LCD
notebook/tablet screen." The context of this is not about external
monitors.

 

Just came back from BestBuy.

The first netbook i tried allowed 1152x864 on a tiny screen. Yes, it
wasn't the easiest to read, but it did extrapolate way past the tiny
physical dimensions of the screen.

A much larger laptop never went above 1280x800 and that had a
dedicated ATI video card.
