It will probably be the Pixel 4a that keeps their smartphone brand alive, assuming they do make a Pixel 4a.

Anonymous, 25 Jun 2019Good point, I agree.Well, android manufacturers, with Google itself, are true idiots and Apple's biggest fans. It really makes zero sense. The one who would use anything like the iPhone already have the iPhone. the rest, obviously, are not fans of what the iPhone represents and in Android, they look for something as different as possible. Not as close as possible. But these CEOs all are really batshit crazy.

Anonymous, 25 Jun 2019You make some very good points, but I have to disagree with... morePeople go used to the teardrop notch and while i still think even that's totally unacceptable, it's nowhere near the monstrous notch of the iPhone. Well, of course, iPhone users can get used to anything they are conditioned to, but normal (Non-Apple) users never would think a notch this size can be acceptable, especially when android actually has status bar notifications, unlike primitive iOS.

LOL that level of ugliness will never be beaten, even by Google or Samsung (Although both are really trying hard). Cancer on the back and monstrous cancerous notch on screen. Most impractical design ever, but since the iPhone has always been the most impractical phone ever, it fits perfectly.

Anonymous, 25 Jun 2019You make some very good points, but I have to disagree with... moreI would say when the majority's opinion is that the phone is ugly, you can conclude without concern that the phone is ugly, but I agree just some comments in this website are not enough to conclude that.
Google chasing after the IPhone look doesn't really make sense to me. Pixel is already a strong enough brand on its own right as is Apple. No one wil buy a Pixel to pass it as an IPhone because that would make them look as idiots, no one needs to pass a Pixel as an IPhone they already are among the top of the and phones, .

First off, the point I was trying to get across was that it was ironic that even how "ugly" people said the notch was, yet other phone brands put it on their phones. Today, even though a portion of people still don't like the notch, most people are used to it by now. When I said "and nobody even bats an eye", that was me saying that notch is normalized (at least for now) into everyday society. Even the people who do dislike it, will only have to wait a few more years until all-screen smartphone displays are possible, like you said.
Second, "hate" is purely subjective. While many did heavily dislike the notch, there are many that didn't mind or actually preferred it. You also said "iPhone's is no longer the design to chase". I disagree. Take for example, the Google Pixel 4. It's still debated about whether Google blatantly "copied" Apple on purpose, but there's a very high chance that these iPhone renders influenced a large part of the Pixel 4's design. And while other brands may begin to stray away from iPhone design, I personally think that iPhone will continue to influence smartphone design, no matter how "horrible" they may look.
Third, a lot of this talk about these renders about how "ugly" it looks is purely personal taste. Take for example the notch. One person may "love it", while another may "hate it". Same with Huawei, Samsung, and any other phone brand. One phone may look "amazing" to one person, but then to another it looks "horrendous". It's all subjective.

Initially, some people thought the Mate 20 design was weird, but now all major brands are copying it. Too bad they didn't also copy the placement, because while it looked elegant in the center, it looks rather out of place on the left.

Most people hated the notch and you don't hesr it as much nowadays because we are almost there in the time the notch is completely dead.
Now what you don't get is companies without a better solution quickly copied Apple, but kept innovating by now have already transcended Apple with better solutions like screen cutouts and pop up mechanisms. Apple is simply too proud of itself to copy those other companies and prefers to do their own thing even if it looks horrible like the back of these new phones
As for others copying the back of the new IPhone, no company with a reputation will do it, IPhone's is no longer the design to chase after but Huawei with its crazy colors and powerful cameras.
