    No Notch ..... Pretty Please .... If you put a notch.... May God have mercy on you LG.

      All 'iPhone X wannabe' phones (Huawei, OP6, Oppo, Vivo, LG, etc) served with TOO BIG a bottom bezel!

      If OEM wants to copy Apple, at least doing it neatly and not making Androids some sort of cheap imitation, and being jeezed by Apple fanboys. Because the fact is that!

        Look at what the Huawai did. You have the option of making the background black and just having it display notifications and time. That's something I could live with. A fully blown notch that can't be hid? No thanks.

          AnonD-468012, 30 Mar 2018Wow a different comment, I will explain it to you. I will t... morei think what he mean about the unbalance top notch bazel and bottom bazel

            AnonD-748360, 30 Mar 2018unpopular opinion: i wouldn't mind the notch IF and only IF... moreWow a different comment, I will explain it to you. I will take the reference to iPhone X and Zenfone 5z.

            *iPhone X does not has Headphone jack and fingerprint sensor that make can not fit the body.

            *If you looks closely, the side bezel on Android Phones is more thinner than iPhone X. The thinner bezel make handling more comfortable.

            Hope you understand, I'm the one that do not too caring about the notch.

              apple remove jack , and some android phone start following , they blaming apple

              apple put notch , and some android phone also start following , they still blaming apple

              android phone used big screen , apple follow using big screen , they blaming apple

              android phone have wireless charging , apple put wireless charging , they blaming apple

              no matter what happen , they still blaming apple for everything even some android phone obsessed to looks like iphone

                      I guess deleting the post means they're keeping it, otherwise they would have used it to advertise they're the only company that listens to consumers

                        Mr, 30 Mar 2018IPhone sales shows that a lot of people don't care about notch.If only that were true, iPhone sales slowed because Apple jacked up the X price by $300. Even then it was down by 1% with one less week of sales. I think it had something to do with leap year or something...

                                They seriously deleted the publication when too many persons said somethin logical unlike what they expected (aka a thousand post saying "Yay notch is goooòood yaaaasssssss please copy Apple go go yay").

                                Sorry guys but they seriously made the G7 with a notch. And now they are raging.

                                    What did they expect? The anti-notch herd is just as noisy as the I-don't-really-care crowd is big.

                                      We'll all look back at this after maybe 3 years and say it was just a dark spot in the history of phone designs

                                        unpopular opinion: i wouldn't mind the notch IF and only IF there wouldn't be any bottom bezel as well. But if you going to leave some bezel on the bottom then f that, you could make it on the top and remove bottom one.
