Display resolution query.

[Swam80]

Hi all,

My office laptop has 1366x768 resolution. Will I be able to use Power BI for my reporting?

Hi @Swam80 -As mentioned, Resolution of 1366x768 is on the lower end, with careful design and optimization, you can effectively use Power BI for your reporting needs.

But atleast we have to maintain the below resolution to use.

default resolution: 16:9 ratio

Minimum requirements

The following list provides the minimum requirements to run Power BI Desktop:

 Important

Power BI Desktop is no longer supported on Windows 8.1.

• Windows 10 or Windows Server 2016 or later.
• .NET 4.7.2 or later.
• Microsoft Edge browser (Internet Explorer is no longer supported)
• Memory (RAM): At least 2 GB available, 4 GB or more recommended.
• Display: At least 1440x900 or 1600x900 (16:9) required. Lower resolutions such as 1024x768 or 1280x800 aren't supported because some controls (such as closing the startup screens) display beyond those resolutions.
• Windows display settings: If you set your display to change the size of text, apps, and other items to more than 100%, you won't see some dialogs that you must interact with to continue using Power BI Desktop. If you encounter this issue, check your display settings in Windows by going to Settings > System > Display, and use the slider to return display settings to 100%.
• CPU: 1 gigahertz (GHz) 64-bit (x64) processor or better recommended.

Hope it helps
