You shouldn't be as close to the laptop screen as to the big monitor. And at larger distances the pixel densities can be lower.

This is the argument that HiDPI displays are pointless if you're not very close to the monitor, and if you've used a retina display, you know that there is absolutely a difference.
You probably hold your phone about 30-40cm from your face. You probably look at your laptop screen at 50-60. You should be at least 75cm it not 90 or 100cm away from a big monitor.
I'm not convinced the difference is obvious.
Did you say that backwards? On my lap, the screen of my laptop is 17"-20" from my face. At a desk, the monitor is usually about 28" from my face.
Yeah, I might have :-)
You should be farther from your monitor than you are from your laptop.
