>muh movies

>16:10 is gone
Well, 1080p ruined that

movies and media are fine on 16:10, or just get a tv, you now, they were actually made for that.

samsung chromebook plus NIBBA

Movies and games benefit massively from widescreen, productivity is only somewhat hampered by 16:9.

Plus 4:3 displays were smaller, so a 20 inch 4:3 is about the same height as a 16:9 24" display which is cheap as shit, just with extra space on the sides.

I was just saying that the push for 1080p into the mainstream killed off 16:10.
I'm happy at 16:9

Dell still make 16:10 IPS monitors?

My U2410 from 7 years ago is still going strong.

Surface and Pixels are 3:2 master race.

Sorry your shit laptop isn't.

16:9 is like 16:10, but has more space on both sides. so 16:10 became utterly useless.

good bait

business laptops should be 4:3 like in the old days, there's no excuse.

bought one is November

dumb premise

I could just say 17.7:10 > 16:10

Except that's entirely wrong. It practice, 16:10 usually just adds extra vertical space

See the commonly manufactured resolution pairs: 1280x800 (16:10) vs 1280x720 (16:9)
and
1920x1200 (16:10) vs 1920x1080 (16:9)

why did they decide 16:9 is the standard?

>tfw still using a 30 inch 16:10 dell from almost ten years ago.
If only it wasn't so fucking big

>21:9
>bad

it's fucking terrible, it needs more vertical space

But muh movies

16:9 monitors have the same height as 16:10 models that are a few inches smaller screen size wise, but have more horizontal space. and with current 4k and higher resolutions there is nothing that makes a 16:10 screen objectively better than a 16:9 screen.

get a tv,

16:9 is cheaper to manufacture. I know theres more reasons, but thats one.

>not 3:2 masterrace

>he doesn't compare a 16:10 MBP to your standard windows laptop

You get more screen space with 16:10 in its current usage than you do with 16:9

>>not 3:2 masterrace

>3:2
>masterrace
you mean 2:1 masterrace

I'm already seeing Gigabyte bluray files for phone apps.
Bluray.... for phones....

3:2 is the perfect ratio.

>not 13:8

>4:3 is the perfect ratio
fty

>5:4 is the perfect ratio
ftfy

>16:10 is gone
What? Macbook Pro with Retina Display does not have this problem

it will

not as long as OS X has that silly, tall dock

Two screens at 7:6 that's closer to unity than 4:3 or 5:4 son.

>16:9 monitors are bigger than 16:10 monitors that are smaller

>16:10 is gone

Nope.

>21:9
>worse
21:9 is so comfy for programming and design.

I'd get one of this if it wasn't so expensive

jesus christ the autism

do you guys hear yourself saying this shit?

16:9 is superior to all screen formats, you are all autistic

You can resize it, auto-hide it, put it on the side. Oh wait, I wouldn't expect anyone here to know such fucking basic starter-guide tier knowledge about Apple products.

It's the HDTV aspect radio, and on all devices from phones and consumer laptops to business laptops and cash registers multimedia playback is the most important aspeect.
Similarly to how you'll get 6-bit color on your desktop when using HDMI because lelel le HDTV plug t. your retard GPU drivers
Note that your anime is now in 10-bit which is a professional grade color depth and not even supported on hOmoSeX, the system faggots think is superior for multimedia production.

Everything about modern display technology standards is stupid and the highest resolution monitors produced for desktop use went EOL somewhere in 2005 and SED is dead because of patent bullshit

2560x1600 is better than 1440p but nowhere near worth the price jump, you could get 2-3 1440p screens for the price of one 2560x1600 assuming you're buying new. But I'll take 1920x1200 over 1080p any day. Ultrawide is dumb.

>petapixel.com/2015/10/30/os-x-el-capitan-quietly-unlocked-10-bit-color-in-imacs-and-mac-pros/

As usual, people on this board have knowledge which is at least 2 years old on anything. The 5K iMac would be the best computer to watch chinktoons on for the wide color support.

2015? Very quietly indeed.

I've seen these threads for years and not once has anyone offered any logical reason why one aspect ratio is any more productive then another. Does anyone have any idea what their arguing for in this thread?

Just get a bigger screen little goy

Forget widescreen and tallscreen. Deepscreen is where its at.

>tfw I unironically
[x] vape
[x] have a 16:10 and a 5:4 monitor
[x] use GNU/Linux exclusively

We still have more lines with a 4k or QHD 16:9 than pretty much anyone had when 4:3 was popular.

In the 4:3 days 1024x768 17" was where most people topped out. There days only cheap laptops have 768 vertical pixels

1280x720 is far less common than 1366x768. Most 720 tvs even have a 1366x768 panel

>tfw got an hp zr30w
GOAT monitor
30" 2K with GOAT colours

2K is just around 1920x1200

If you've never used a 3440x1440 monitor you can't claim it's worse for productivity. It's fucking incredible for multitasking you faggot.

>Muh black bars
1080p destroyed society.
16:9 is USELESS for productivity.

Thankfully 3:2 is bringing us closer to 4:3.

4:3 and 16:9 are the same thing

>x/y = (x/y)^2

>16:10 is gone
My Retina MacBook Pro 15 inch doesn't have this problem.

4/3 = 1.3333
16/9 = 1,7777

4:3 = 16:9 = 64:27 = 256:81 = 3.16

1:root(2) is objectively superior.

>1440x900
>1600x900

>1650x1050
>1920x1080

None of that removes it though. It just hides it until you get your mouse close enough

>1600x900

>not using 8:5

Why do they say 16:10 and not 8:5?

Soon there will be even wider screen with 200Hz TN panel.

wtf i love apple now

21:9 is practically dual 5:4 monitors

probably because of the popularity of 16:9

Same with mine, beyond more space, vidya that actually takes advantage of it and doesn't force letterboxing always lets you use comfier FOV's, I don't ever see myself replacing it unless we somehow get another 16:10 IPS on the market with some flavor of adaptive sync

What?

He said Blue Ray for phones

3:2 > all else
we need more 3:2 screens

My laptop's 3:2, for those I'd prefer 4:3 but for a desktop monitor 3:2 seems like a nice aspect ratio.

16:9 was agreed upon as the standard for widescreen TV because it's a """nice""" compromise between the wide format of cinema movies and old tv programes on 4:3. Then when the demand for flatscreen TVs spiked, it displaced 16:10 from computer monitors because of economy of scale of panel manufacturing

Just use 9:16, you plens.

This shit is all so relative. If you compare the two aspect ratios using the same height 16:9 comes out with more space, if using the same width 16:10 comes out with more. In the real world it came out most of the time that width was what was the same between the two and so 16:10 came out ahead, but it's not like it's an inherently superior ratio because of that.
