Display sizes / aspect ratios


All other things being equal, which out of these two 10.1" tablet display resolutions would you say sounds better:

1280x800 (8:5 ratio, 1'024'000 pixels total, 150ppi, just fits standard HD)

or

1366x768 (16:9 ratio, 1'049'088 pixels total, 155ppi, better than HD but not FullHD)

I know the second one seems to have the overall edge in terms of all but frame height (and only misses-out by 32 pixels, a mere 4% less than the other), but I still find myself um-ing and ah-ing over the matter...

1280x800

Not every video in iTunes or Google Play would look good in 1366x768 because some videos aren't even HD on those movie shops.
