        You can always crop them yourself…

        Which is, I assume, what was happening in the older phones, not much sense in making a custom aspect ratio sensor just for one phone size.

          Very aware of that. It’s what it does for every other aspect ratio after all (hence the reduction in resolution when shooting in 16:9). The benefit would be ease of composition, so I don’t have to try and keep a mental picture of 21:9 when taking a photo. It’s such an easy thing to do (and apparently they had already done the work).
