Seems democra... moreso called screen to body ratio of all the mobiles are wrong due to the notch... this small hole will not effect overall user experience like notch...and small bar on top...

Secondary screen and taking selfie with your Main Cameras would be a viable option right now rather than a pop up selfie cameras.
Since a technology where the OLED Display will adapting colour and brightness to its specific area where the selfie camera lies underneath of it is still not yet here on the market, Infinity-O-screen is not quite interesting enough.

Luxor, 26 Nov 2018Maybe they will add black bar there. Something ala-LG V10. ... moreNah they won't, otherwise it would have been put on top, but it isn't, part of the screen (1mm or so) is above it.

I don't know what to say on the poll results. Seems democracy / majority is not right often.
The same people who seem to like this new 'hole' on the top left of the screen would think twice before purchasing a phone with that bloat on the screen all the time. It is ugly, plain and simple. I don't know how can someone consider it better alternative than a simple small bezel at the top or a teardrop in the middle.

It would have been nice to have option not to have selfie camera at all.

In a hole!? I thought those people love screen burning cause by the front selfie camera. It's all about gimmick and marketing nothing more than that!

Anonymous, 25 Nov 2018Notch and hole are awful People will defend hole because... moreYou're totally right! I just got a Galaxy A6+ and I'm happy it doesn't have a notch. It's awesome in horizontal mode for Netflix or Youtube without something distracting on the side. Right now it seems to be all about fashion features and not usefull inventions

I would agree that the dual screen solution is better than a hole though, since the hole probably won't have those special sensors either.

IDK about camera hole but I prefer Bezel notch and bottom for extra grip, more durable and lesser battery drain because is lesser screen size. just reduce the right/left side bezel.

what's wrong with top bezel? it's perfect, easy to implement and you can add additional features like flash and speaker.

You guys really need to stop the discussion about notches because now we are loosing more important features like a notification LED just to make the notch smaller. I never even use the notch part of my screen.

To be honest, after the Nubia X has been release, selfie camera(s) are now useless in my opinion.
Just took literally one dual screen phone to change my whole perspective about how we should taking selfies in the future.

While it seems Samsung will be adopting camera hole at the corner feature for their S10, I have serious concerns about the durability of the front cam. I mean the sharpest impact for a phone occurs when it falls on the edges. If the phone calls then along with the screen (which is already expensive enough to replace) will the camera module be affected? Especially when the phones are getting thinner and having less padding with every generation. If the camera module is susceptible to breaking then the whole repairing affair will be exorbitantly expensive!!

the real question should be is front camera necessary? There many that don't care for it. So why not offer both.
