External monitor for MacBook Air 2017
I am interested in buying an external monitor for my MacBook Air 2017. I was wondering if I buy a monitor that has a higher resolution than the screen on my MacBook, will everything on the new monitor be in higher resolution. For example if a play a video on the new monitor, will it play in the higher resolution compared to if I played it on my laptop.
Any help would be appreciated.
MacBook Air 13", macOS 10.13
