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]

    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.
