I have a tablet with a 7 inch display and when I enable the option small display the part displayed is really too small (I think it's less than 3 inch), so at the moment it is pretty much useless.
It would be great to have a "medium" screen option or even better an option to resize the screen.
This option would be very useful on Android to speed up non-buffered rendering (due to its fixed resolution, enabling the small display option there's a huge speed boost, but as I said it's not much useful since the area displayed is really too small)
Having more option for resizing could give the possibility to better suit system specification with displayed area.

Yeah, more size options are needed. Was thinking of maybe even adding the screen as a resizable control in the control layout editor... Would be a bit messy though when it's fullscreen.

Is this still relevant with the hardware scaler option (which should work for non-buffered and buffered rendering alike)?

I realize that it's still not possible to select a different zoom level, but I think the primary reason for such a feature is either performance or 1:1 pixels. The hardware scaler option addresses performance, and small display addresses 1:1.

In my opinion Small display is too small: on my 7' tablet is pretty much useless
For example a Medium display (or resizeable display) option would be useful to play at 1x with less pixelated graphic...

I believe this is fixed now, with @LunaMoo's work on the display layout editor.
