Left side - the result of downscaling the image from 1800px (height) to 1200px in the Mac OS Image Preview utility.
Right side - the same downscaling in Photoshop (Menu: Image->Image Size...)
You can see significant visual distortions of the photoshop version. How can I avoid this weird behavior?

UPDATE: OK, I've figured out that it happens only when scaling PSD, when I save unscaled image as PNG, and then re-open and downscale it in photoshop, it works perfectly! What's wrong with scaling in PSD?

Resizing is not a good approach,

Goto File>Export as Select Format and Resolution plus dpi form there...

You'll get the best result.

Finally, it turned out that scaling PSD is totally wrong approach. There is an option "Save for Web" (also "Export As" in CC 2015.5) where target size could be selected.
