swing and a miss. the 'notch' memes were well underway an hour after apple introduced X way before samsung used it in a commercial.

how did the while "phones only should be one size" mentality Apple had?

If the search was better on here you would find threads of colorchanging echoing Jobs on how phones should be one size, but he won't admit it.

mean it's either that or a solid black bar across the top. I'm glad they shoved those icons up there in what would otherwise be wasted space.

You are going to put speakers behind glass and try to make them sound good?

What is so confusing to me is why people have to act like they like it? It's a design flaw that they had to use until they can improve the design for no bezels at all.

Apple won't have the notch for much longer either so there is really no reason to defend them. They are limitations in technology for the time being until everything is under the screen.

just another "phones should only be one size" and "no need for a notification bar" that people echo until there is something different.

Imagine going to buy a new 70" Samsung 4K tv for $3,000 and it having a huge notch in the panel.

Everything he said.

Ludicrous for people to defend this. I am going to bookmark this thread so when new phones come out next year that eliminate this we can laugh at everyone who thinks there's no solution to the "notch".

wow, you might be the worst poster. WTF does it matter to you if someone wants to watch a movie on their phone. The analogy was meant to be antiquated because before laptops the only want to get on a computer was to be at your computer desk.


Im sorry things go over your head.

It doesn't. I just asked why? Did you read all sorts of statements into that question?

Yes I used to think that reachability was best. A size that allowed the thumb to travel over the entire screen. However I have seen the light. nothing but the biggest iPhone now. Thanks for not going so hard on me

Are people actively saying they like the notch? That's weird if true. It's not a flaw, it's a compromise.

ETA: and it triggers the frick out of me every time Jony Ive says "completely uncompromised design".
