Even better, when they film vertically, and then encode it to widescreen. Ensuring that no matter how you view it on a phone it's microscopic.

This is the only thing i really hate. I don't give a shit about vertical anymore. We lost that battle.

I love it when it's a phone recording of a landscape 16:9 video playing with the phone in vertical orientation and huge black bars above and below. Then I can view this on my 21:9 monitor with extreme black bars on the sides and a teeny-tiny picture in the middle.

It's encoded in widescreen but is microscopic?
