Question Why don't those up-coming Snapdragon X Elite laptops have larger, higher resolution screens ?

Hello, checked a few manufacturers but can't find any laptop with the new CPU with 16+ high-res screen. For example, Dell's largest one is 14" at QHD+ while Lenovo's largest screen is 14.5" at 3K only. Why not 16-18" at 4K? Is Snapdragon X Elite not capable of driving higher resolution screen?

There are few options;

Samsung Galaxy Book4 Edge with SD X Elite CPU comes in 14" and 16" variants,
specs: https://www.samsung.com/uk/computer...ook4-edge-snapdragon-16gb-1tb-np960xmb-kb1uk/

Asus Vivobook S15 has 15.6" screen, running the same SD X Elite CPU.

Note: None of the laptops listed are meant for gaming, and thus, doesn't have dedicated GPU in them.

But higher reso = more battery drain = less charge and less runtime. Something, what laptop manufacturers avoid like a plague.
