I agree the resolution is a downside but really, people can always find reasons to complain. JAL, for example has a huge screen in J and F but that system is buggy (I can't recall who, but at least one or two other carriers use it), and the offerings are definitely far inferior for a native English and Chinese speaker.
I have recently flown on CX A350, QR 787, 777 and A380, Etihad's A380, Turkish Airlines 777-300ER and all of these aircraft have better screen resolution than CX 777s. The configuration doesn't matter. The screen in business class is like watching a CRT TV when the world has moved to 4K.
