wrong dpi detected ?

when I use
xdpyinfo | grep -B 2 resolution
I get

screen #0:
  dimensions:    1920x1080 pixels (508x285 millimeters)
  resolution:    96x96 dots per inch

when I run xrandr | grep -w connected     
I get
eDP-1 connected primary 1920x1080+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 309mm x 174mm
which give 160 dpi

my laptop is 14 inches so the second one is correct.
but it seems that kde ..likes... 96 dpi.
if I set 160 dpi then I set very comically large menus that cover the screen, like start menu.

am I missing something?
