IMAX Reacts to iPhone Duo's 1:1.4 Aspect Ratio Displays

Friday September 11, 2026 4:42 am PDT by
Production theater company IMAX has responded in a mixed way to Apple's embrace of a 1:1.4 aspect ratio on the iPhone Duo's inner and outer displays. The boxier ratio happens to be very close to the classic "full-frame" IMAX 1.43:1 aspect ratio, which comes from the geometry of the company's original 15-perforation/70mm film system.

From the rumors, it seems like this is going to be a Snow Leopard year, so we'll all be trying to read the tea leaves in any changes in software or designs that align with hardware rumors for the fall!

Don't believe that for one second. All the focus on Siri and foldables will introduce many, many new issues and challenges. They might have an internal memo saying they want to prioritize performance and bug fixes, but they will keep putting out new features and introducing new bugs because new sells.

Let’s be honest this year all the update will be boring, with just bug fix updates that won’t actually be fixed after 3 months beta testing. Also it will just be talking about ai and Siri blah blah blah, no exciting new features
Bug fix update is good , no need for more new useless features , just give us a polished iOS
