Is my understanding correct that there are no @framework laptops in 16x9 (or 16x10) aspect ratios available right now? eg the pre-order for next quarter delivery is the only option?
It is moderately likely I will need a laptop before that time window and dont want to miss the opportunity to get a framework (but the 3:2* aspect ratio… isn’t for me).
*[edited aspect ratio to correct one]
The 16 in is 16:10, the 13in is 3:2. I suspect you’d end up liking the aspect ratio of you gave it a shot, I much prefer it to 16:9
Always wondered about this. Why do you like it? All computers were like this way back when so it can’t be too bad but why do you orefer it?
Generally, readibility is better when you have a larger vertical aspect the aspect ratio. Especially in the age where many sites are designed with verticality in mind due to the prevalence of mobile.
16:9 is good for media consumption and games, but its not ideal for general web browsing and reading.
I mostly work in fullscreen windows and the 3:2 aspect ratio allows me to have more code/text on my screen at once, while keeping the laptops size small.
It’s barely different anyway. Do the math, and it comes out to comparing 16:10 to 16:10.667
@NENathaniel Ooops! You are right, 3:2. Not sure what I was thinking when I typed 3:4.
Will update my post to reflect.
Thank you for the response.
I’d really have to try the 3:2 out for awhile and don’t want to front the money to do that right now (cash is tight and would rather ‘go with what I know’ at this time).
