Goodbye widescreen, hello tallscreen – soon we'll watch everything in portrait
- my12parsecs 3y agoIt's kind of unfortunate that we have hands suited for holding portrait screens, but our sight/vision is in landscape.
- eimrine 3y agoIt was not so in the era of button phones which typically have the lower half of "facade" filled with buttons.
- my12parsecs 3y agoYeah but those screens were tiny. If you want a decent size landscape screen to hold naturally, you need to do something crazy like the LG wing with its flipping screen.
- coldtea 3y agoIt's kind unfortunate that we have a big world, 8 billions of people to select subsets to meet, thousands of things to do and see, and we're glued to screens for multiple hours per day to the detriment of other activities, to the point of lamenting our landscape oriented vision.
- eimrine 3y agoWhy not to stream a round-shaped video which would let the viewer to choose either he wants widescreen or tallscrean?
- miskin 3y agoBecause composition would be bad on both.
- pestatije 3y agothe compromise is square...my prediction is well get there in 10 years time
