Viva Oneplus :D

Apple was first to set the trend with NFC, after apple everybody started to put NFC in their devices.
And so on with first to set the trend with over 84% screen to body ratio device, the notch and etc. only after apple everybody else started to do the same.
They were even the first to set the trend with device that has no physical buttons on the front.

Who cares if they are first, it does not become a trend, when other OEM sees it, they are like yeah whatever, but when apple implements it, that should be on our next phone model

So when apple copies from android bigger screen device versions, dual cameras, taller screens, notch, etc. then it's true apple innovation because nobody cared before?
If nobody bothered, why did apple decided to follow?
The point is that apple is no longer setting the trend, but following. But when they follow, apple fanboys claim apple to be the one to set the trend they never really did.

There were nokia, sony, samsung, blackberry, lg fans long time before iphones existed.
But in apple fanboy world apple is always first and everybody copies apple.
In real world there is technological progress and customer expectations.
Last year every manufacturer had chance to use a notch and taller screens for better screen to body ratio. Some jumped the bandwagon, some decided to skip. Why is it so hard to accept this and not blame someone for copying ?

Anonymous, 03 Mar 2018now they claim essential has a notch, when ipx was release ... moreYou forgot the gestures, oneplus 5t new os version is similar to the ipx swipe gesture
The essential phone has only the selfie cam on top, you can’t even call that a notch, it does not even look close to the design of the notch on the ipx
Sure some may have had that years before, but apple executes it perfectly that its worth copying by android OEM, point here is that when other phone OEM implements it, nobody bother to notice it or copy it, but when apple does it, everybody is jumping in the band wagon

... moreYeah android has face unlock 2012 which can be fooled by a photo, and nobody cared back then
Yeah leeco remove the headphone jack, and nobdy cared back then
Yeah metal frames and non removable battery existed before, and nobody cared back then
Yeah there where already big size phones, but nobody named then plus until iphone 6 plus came out, and nobody cared back then
Yeah ph1 and sharp had the notch but nobody copied their design, and nobody cared back then
Yeah there where dual camers already but they copied even the setup and orientation of the cam, and nobody cared back then

But get your facts straight.
Face unlock was on android starting 2012.
LeEco Le 2 had no headphone jack half a year before iphone 7.
Phone with metal frames and non-removable batteries have been before iphones and androids existed.
Apple did copy Plus versions of devices from androids, extra tall screens, and now notches.
There were two android phones (essential ph1, sharp Aquos S2) with notches before iphone x, but somehow after it every android phone with a notch is a copy of iphone x.

YalokIy, 02 Mar 2018Essential PH1 was first phone with the notch! Forget about ... morenow they claim essential has a notch, when ipx was release everybody hated the notch and said nobody wanted that, but here we are now staring at android OEM with a notch, that was also the same with the non-removable battery but same story almost everybody has adopted it, same with the metal frame, android users say plastic is the best, but same story almost everybody adopted it, same with the headphone jack,android users say they need their headphone jack, but GOOGLE itself remove the headphone jack, most of the OEM now has a phone that does not have the headphone jack, same when the 5s was release the touch id, they mock it that it was easily bypass with the right tools but same story everybody now uses fingerprint unlock, same with face id, before it was release only fingerprint scanning was available and iris scan for samsung, but now they also have face unlocking besides the fingerprint scan on their phone, same with animoji, they say who wants to see their face change to shit, but asus has their own version of animoji, s9 has AR Emoji... android users will just say ours is better after they hate what apple trends but embraces it in the end and say android is better at it :lol:

Fast forward to 2016 it's Xiaomi MI Mix, then in 2017 February, LG G6 started their first 18:9 display followed by Samsung Galaxy S8 in April. Soon in May, Essential phone started it's notch followed by the iPhone X in September which has the huge notch than the Essential phone making it more popular. And finally in 2018, the notch, Bezelless display and 18:9 trend have begun!!!

That's how op6 will look like. I like that :)
Great idea from comment to make status bar black with white battery, network, WiFi icons :). Then the notch would not be visible so much ;)
Op pls upgrade the camera + make the phone waterproof. It will be a flagship killer of 2018 :))

I don't care about the notch and I love the design of essential phone.
The bigger screen to body ratio the better!
That area that the notch covers is unused anyway.
Also, one can have the status bar with black background, so it will blend together with notch.
