AI 788 IFE Screen in Business Class
I have an upcoming flight LHR - BOM on the 788 in Business Class and was wondering about the IFE. I noticed from a photo, that the Screen in Row 1 was from the arm rest and not wall mounted.
My question: Is the screen from arm rest in Row 1 the same size as the screens mounted on the backs of the seats in Row 2 and 3.
Any advice on or knowledge would be appreciated.
Thanks

The 1st row has screen's mounted on the bulkhead divider, not in the armrest. AI's J class seats don't have slots for foldable display screens. And IIRC, the size of the screen on the wall is slightly smaller or maybe it was it's framing.
As a suggestion, choose a seat on the 2nd row.

I am referring to this photo from this blog. As you can see there is no wall mounted IFE screen in the first row, and there appears to be one that has been extended from an arm rest:
