Come to think about it, why would 21:9, 24:10, and 32:9 ultrawide monitors exist in the first place? If I really need to use a taller screen, I just get myself a rotating portable monitor tqvm.

      Anonymous, 4 hours ago3:2 is good for photography.Not really. You can't have 4:3 photo without cropping a chunk out of a native 3:2 sensor. It's the reason Sony's Xperia Pro-i has an equivalent sensor size of 1/1.3" despite using a native 1" RX100 camera sensor because of the 4:3 crop from the native 1" 3:2 sensor.

      Remember, 4:3 is taller than 3:2. You can crop 3:2 photos out of a native 4:3 camera sensor without losing all the sensor size areas, but not the other way around.

        I was quite skeptical when I read 3:2 at first... It's completely new. And so blocky...

        ...Right?

        It's not like any other phone would have tried an even blockier ratio before, like 4:3. The iPhone 2G/3G, 4... Damn, those were absolutely unsuable...

        Jokes aside, I'm a reluctant Mini user and I beg for an Android-sized Mini. But since it's not gonna happen, I'm open to other ideas. Past the initial skepticism, I'm thinking it could be interesting on a daily basis. I'm very curious, and I can't wait to try it out and see what it's gonna be like.

        THAT IS... If it comes with Android outside of China, bc they can keep their Har-money for themselves.

          Anonymous, 8 hours agoHow about an iPhone mini that doesn’t fold?Absolutely agreed...

            I think the purpose should be either a phone that folds in half or, a phone that unfolds into a bigger screen. you have to be able to carry a phone aspect ratio (19:9 to 22:9) at some point. it is not possible to deliver a main daily driver using a 3:2 aspect ratio unless it rolls one side of the screen out to expand aspect ratio, then rolls back in to a 20:9. otherwise, it can be secondary device only.

              3:2 is good for photography.

                  Well, the ratio when folded should be 2:1.5, which means 4:3

                    Personally, I prefer 3:2 screens, 16:9 on a laptop is just too narrow to do anything useful other than video playback. Moreover, you can watch 16:9 videos on a 3:2 or 4:3 , aspect ratio doesn't matter, only size matters.
                    That is why Huawei advertised it's monitors for their 3:2 aspect ratio, it is much better.

                      So... a phone with an impractical aspect ratio? Phones have their current aspect ratio for a reason?

They're fine if you mostly stay in Portrait mode doing document work, but it's useless when watching videos or live streams. I still maintain that 16:9 is the best screen for mass media, but I can go 16:10 for larger custom screen resolutions beyond the typical FHD and QHD standards.

                          very unpractical, very useless, huawei needs to step up their game, will probably also be overpriced

                              3:2? That's the same aspect ratio my Blackberry Key2 has, and it sucks. Ignoring the fact that the main reason i hate it is because of the fact that if they removed the dedicated navigation buttons, it could fit 16:9, it's very inconvenient. I like to change the system aspect ratio to 16:9 in settings whenever im consuming content. A phone with a 3:2 display lacking the keyboard is going to look very weird.
