Is the downside the modem?

"The new aspect ratio is worse at triggering tablet app layouts in my use so far, something that the original Fold was the best in the industry with. Now, behavior is similar to the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and OnePlus Open, where you’ll often get stuck with a stretched-out phone version of an app."

Sounds like a clear failure to have a reasonable API. I'd think apps shouldn't have to guess based on aspect ratio, they should be told in some way which layout to use.

Hold on now, let us not start using logic when referring to computer programming here. It's all magic and bumbling around on a keyboard.
