Advantages:
1. Viewing multiple apps simultaneously in a better way., While the dual-screen feature existed in the old 16:9 aspect ratio, it is better in the new aspect ratio in terms of app display and interaction, both vertically and horizontally.
2. Larger space for apps., In the new aspect ratio, the benefit lies in displaying more content on the screen while browsing the internet with more text and images displayed. The new ratios are also better for reading books and provide a better gaming experience compared to the past.
3. Easier one-handed operation, even with larger screen sizes., Holding a 6-inch, 18:9 aspect ratio phone with one hand is easier than a 5.5-inch, 16:9 aspect ratio phone, allowing manufacturers to increase screen size without much concern., While there is an increase in producing videos and apps in the new aspect ratio, it is not as widespread as desired. The shortage in videos in the 18:6 ratio compared to the older 16:9 ratios leads to content cropping or stretching, affecting the viewing experience. Similarly, apps designed in the old aspect ratios do not display well on devices with the new aspect ratios.
2. Longer swiping distances., For example, swiping longer distances with your finger is required to access app menus, bringing down the notification shade, or flipping through e-books.
