How often do you use a report size bigger than the default 1280 x 720?

All of my users work with at least full HD monitors, many, including myself, use 2.5K or above. And yet, in general, I use the default report size of 1280 x 720. This is OK if you have a dashboard with four to six graphs or charts, but once you have a matrix with a reasonable number of columns, plus cards, slicers, other visuals etc.,  you quickly run out of real estate. Especially given the minimum font size of 8pt.

 

I am interested to know if you guys use higher resolutions, maintaining the 16:9 aspect ratio. For example, 1600x900 might seem to be a happy medium between the default and full HD. If so, did you run into any unexpected issues?

Yes, there is one major Issue im facing after increasing the pixel size maintaining 16:9 ratio is reduced report size on services (powerbi.com). the size of the report shrink and i have to make it zoom to fit the screen. if we choose 16:9 default size in power bi desk then it fit perfectly fit the screen.

Fun fact: visuals are processed in batches of five. The more visuals you cram onto a page the longer the users will have to wait for all visuals to render.
