If the first screen shot is a print-screen screen shot or similar, it looks like you're scaling the UI. This confuses things that try to guess what your resolution is, especially web browsers.

I have a Lenovo Flex 3 laptop (1470) that is supposed to come with a 1080P monitor. Under the windows settings, the resolution (1080P) is recognized. However, when I use the online tools to check my resolution, it says my monitor is 720P. 

 

What is going on? Why is there this difference?

Well mine works if it makes you feel any better.... but i dont know maybe contact lenovo about it or make sure all your drivers are up to date, maybe check your GPU screen settings.
