i updated mine via the app store , did not encountered anything weird regarding resolution change or whatever, all works fine for me. The download and installation took awhile even on 20mb unifi.

Chrome only looks cacat if using the chrome app, well not cacat laa just not like normal , the normal chrome browser looks like normal.

I think maybe all your fonts and icons looks smaller due to higher resolution, you can change the size of the icons and text

i'm updating from Market Place too, and basically everything become bigger =\ resolution still same, but all the other windows become enlarged, no only in chrom, icon in My Computers, Control Panel and other too =\ oh well, and smiley face BSOD as well.

i've called dell tech support, and they told me that do not update to 8.1 at the moment as there are a lot of users had already filed complain to them. and what we can do is restored back.... but now seem like restoring back to factory default is not an option for me anymore, all the recovery option that they given to me not working at all =\
