When a few days ago I described the upcoming model BlackBerry Passport, I described it as bulky. A wide, square screen looks a little strange, but maybe that's why at the official blog the manufacturer tries to convince us that this aspect ratio has a deep sense...
In fact included graphics explains everything. BlackBerries have been associated for years with the business. What does a businessman do? Views spreadsheets! And - as you can see in the picture – in the Passport display we can see more columns than on the traditional smartphone. Indeed – and I do not intend to discuss with it. But is the phone used only for viewing of digits? BlackBerry argues that on the wide screen a clean text also looks better. According to the study, the optimal amount of characters per line is 66 - meanwhile, the typical smartphone displays on its rectangular screen only 40. Reading e-books on Passport is to be incomparably comfortable. The manufacturer compares it even to the experience, which provides an IMAX cinema, arguing that wide screen is better for our perception. And actually I still have to disagree with everything - but we are talking about the phone. A device that somehow we have to keep in hand - and so far, the BlackBerry materials did not dispel my doubts. Do you also think that Passport is doomed to fail?
