I feel like a broken record. The OP claimed tall screens that ARE NOT 16:9 are a gimmick. The iPhone 5 is 16:9.
What? S3 launches May 2012. iPhone 5 was September 2012. S3 had a 16:9 ratio. Same as iPhone 5.The iPhone 5 was the first talk screen BEFORE Samsung.
Yes, that was pointed out to me.![]()
Third time's the charm!Yes 16:9 is the aspect ratio. Yes very important.

So no, Samsung was first.
Fun fact. The original Samsung Galaxy S released in 2010 had a 16:9 aspect ration. Therefore Samsung did it 2 years before Apple.What? S3 launches May 2012. iPhone 5 was September 2012. S3 had a 16:9 ratio. Same as iPhone 5.

What the heck? That’s makes ZERO sense. Has nothing to do with someone doing something first.It depends. Apple has a greater market share.

It’s almost as if there are different people with different opinions posting.
Thank you. I’m often called charming.

Quite the contrary. Apple has made many cents. Some would estimate in the billions. I’m not so bold to go that far.

It won't due to the humongous new status and bottom bars, plus the screen is much narrower so text will wrap anyway. It won't be that huge of a difference compared to the 4.7" models either.Anything text based is generally better on a portrait display. The iPhone X will display more text in a news article or a forum post than the iPhone 8 Plus will.
There is really nothing great about tall screens. About 0.00001% of web content is designed for portrait.
let's see what happens when you scroll the page down on the X...
lol.Since you didn't do it, ill post a honest screen shot with the address bar shrunk and controls hidden on both devices.
If the Plus's AddressBar is shown, it pushes
"movies. There are worse things"
to the bottom of the screen.
Still, that's more than the iPhone X can display.
