            Gotta have more screen estate for all the bloat aka dupe apps they include on their products.

              Another stupid trend that will carry on for no good reason.

              16:9 is the best A:R for any kind of multimedia device, followed by 18:9 for dual-screen multi-tasking. Any wider than that is a poor choice.

                        Taller screens are utterly insane. It creates problems both in wired and wireless screen sharing to larger 16:9 TV's, makes photo viewing in Facebook smaller, displays videos with even bigger black bars and makes keyboards cramped and full page desktop webpages look ridiculous. It makes website reading and mobile gaming horrendous when you have to tap near the center of the screen in landscape while holding the phone with both hands while playing games.

                        The numerous aspect ratios that haven't been standardized are utterly stupid. 18:9, 18.5:9, 19:9, 19.5:9, 20:9, 21:9. What's next? 25:9? The many screen aspect ratios are making the android experience horrible from screen sharing to photo viewing to video viewing to gaming, etc.

                        Enough with this 'longer aspect ratio is cool' insanity! It's planned obsolescence and FAKE bragging rights to the largest screen size! In reality, a 6.5" in 20:9 aspect ratio displays smaller photos and videos and has smaller useful viewing area than a 6.0" phone in 16:9 aspect ratio! Why narrow down screens to insane anorexic aspect ratios? Because it's the only way manufacturers can claim 'increased screen size' and 'screen size superiority'. Ergo, justification for higher phone prices despite the phone getting stupidly narrow while losing many features (headphone jack, micro sd expansion), etc. It's not cool. It's stupid!

                              18.5 : 9 is the best because 16 plus 21 and then divide by 2 equal to 18.5.

                                    Smartphone screens going over 18:9 was a mistake
