    I like the idea of fold tech but I just wish it unfolded to a proper aspect ratio.

    Imagine an iPhone that unfolds into an iPad.

    Edit: just looked it up, it’s 4:3, which is not bad but imo it’s also not good

      It is literally the aspect ratio of every iPad, though 😅

      Something like 16:10 or 16:9 would make it very square when folded. IMO the most satisfying aspect ratio would be √2:1, like A4 paper, so that the aspect ratio when closed and open is the same.

        Well shit that shows how little I know about tablets

        You know, I hope this becomes something people like, cause why not, we need some tech wins these days.

      I’m the kind of contrarian who thinks we should have stuck with 4:3 in general, it’s a better framing for a lot of content and it also makes the vertical video problem a lot less annoying in my view.
