Yeah, your assumptions that you base your argument on to get to a 'mathematically irreconcilable' conclusion is really a matter of perspective.

The future of the form-factor of foldable tech is by no means locked in stone.

I'm saying it's irreconcilable that the phone be like phones we know now (18:9, minimum bezels), and the tablet be like tablets we know now (18:9, minimum bezels). If we have either form conform to what we know now, the other must be very different.

What tablet is 18:9?

From a quick google search to https://www.cnet.com/topics/tablets/best-tablets/large-table..., I see no such thing.

I was wrong on the tablets, I was meaning an ideal tablet for watching TV/films which is mostly 16:9 or 18:9.

Tablets typically are 4:3, which would result in a phone being 3:2 which would be 25% shorter on 18:9 phones, and 15% shorter on 16:9 phones, which is a reasonable departure from the norm, and ultimately means neither the phone nor the tablet are well set up for watching films/TV.

Sorry, I am just not convinced of the soundness of your argument.

[PhasmaFelis]

You're not convinced that 2*9/18 != 18/9?

I think you may be seeing a different argument than OP was making.

[nathcun]

What exactly aren't you convinced of?
