Results: Do you have faith in the future of 2:1 display ratio?
So, we started 2017 with a bit of a weird step in smartphone evolution. The Galaxy S8 and LG G6 both rock a weirdly elongated display, with a 2:1 (in Sammy's case – 18.5:1) screen ratio. Not a lot of media supports it and some apps don't play well with it; some users welcome, others cringe a bit at the thought of it.
