I don't know. The bigger the screen the better for me. It's up to you.

If it will most of the time not portable (just standing on a desk, then probably take larger size.
If you will often carry it in a bag or rucksack, then probably take smaller one.

Also, Windows has an interface font scaling option, you can make almost all fonts in desktop applications larger. And LInux has it too.

Coming from a 5 year old 17 inch gamer laptop.
Is reading in a 16 more difficuly due to smaller letters? Are artifacts in games also smaller?
Does a 16 inch Oled have better quality then a 18 inch Mini led IPS?
Does a 18 inch would emit more blue light?

To answer your question: If you're looking for a gaming laptop that also works well for everyday use and entertainment, I'd recommend sticking with the 16-inch model. It's easier to carry in a knapsack, just make sure the bag fits, especially if you're travelling for vacation or business. Personally, I wouldn't go for the 18-inch version. It might be heavier, which could make it inconvenient to carry around, especially to something like a job interview. That said, it could offer better performance when it comes to graphics and screen resolution, which is a plus for gaming and content creation.

I don't plan to be very portable with it. Just sometimes i use it while im in bed or on my laps at home. But most of the time its on the desk.
But most important things for me are the screen quality, cool system and low noise from the fans.

I'm about to buy one too. 18 inch cause of gaming on it. Can always buy a really cheap & small 2nd laptop to carry around for other stuff.

Depends on the native resolution and scaling settings.

16 or 18, as long as it fits in a Swissgear pack it's good.

Well, I'd consider external monitor, if you mainly use laptop on desk.
