The standard 1x for most smartphone cameras is equivalent to about a 28mm focal
length on 35mm FF, albeit the typical smartphone aspect ratio is 3:4 native,
not 2:3. By comparison, 50mm (on 35mm FF) is a pretty long lens, about a 2x
magnification factor (not counting digital zoom).

The aspect ratio of these things is right in between the 35mm full frame
format and the old panoramic format that was put onto cameras like the
