Two different monitors with same resolution: text is a lot smaller on one of them


What size HD widescreen monitor would “match” a 19" monitor?Apply display magnification to just one monitorTwo-monitor setup often fails to be recognized by WindowsWhy do windows change in pixel size when dragged between monitors with the same resolution? (Lenovo with Windows 8.1)Why is my 3200x1800 laptop delivering a blurry image to my 1080p external monitor? (HDMI, Win 7)Dell Latitude - HDMI output is unreliableTrying to hook up Dual Monitor Samsung S32D850T but can't get 2560 x 1440 using a ASUS GFX 970Make image sharp at lower resolutions?Resolution discrepancy between Windows Settings and 3rd party programWhy is my vertical monitor's viewport much smaller than it should be?

I have two 1920 x 1080 monitors (a Samsung & a BenQ), text size is set to 100% (Windows 10 settings) on both monitors.



Yet on the BenQ the text is significantly smaller (like, too small). But I can't fix that by setting text to 125% in Windows because in that case Chrome's viewport width changes which is unacceptable for my web dev work.



Why is the text size not identical on both monitors since they have the exact same resolution, and can I make it identical without using windows text zoom functionality?



Models are:




  • Samsung Syncmaster F2380

  • BenQ GW2270H

Your two monitors have different screen sizes. 23 vs 21.5 inches. Naturally 1920 pixels will take up less space on the smaller monitor vs the larger. If you want your two monitors to look the same they need to have exactly the same screen sizes as well as pixel counts.
