Almost all contemporary smartphone screens are relatively high resolution, but older less-expensive computer may motors are not. based on complaints I see here about how posted photos are too large, I can surmise that a number of pdml listers are looking at low-res monitors. A good 4K or 5K monitor will always display a photo far better than the best smartphone.
