The iPhone may finally ditch the notch.

domraym, 02 Mar 2021Notched iphone user here. Good thing Apple is slow af at up... moreThat's true. With Iphone, each generation leap is small enough that it won't tempt previous gen iphone owners to upgrade, different story with Android phones, espeically Xiaomi and Huawei phones.

People used to complain about IPhones notch, but at the end, they are fine with that. Then, they complain about the big punch hole of Huawei phones because of 3d face unlock, now, i wonder if they are going to do the same to Apple.

    Apple's ''innovation'' is first adding the totally unnecessary notch and then removing it (and charging extra for it). Respect to Sony for not going with this stupid craze.

      I see why they take long in new technologies; but c'mon, for something as niché as a punch-hole camera and 5G, why wait two years? They're just making this year's models (12S or 13, whatever they come to be known as) ever-more useless.
      They need to wake-up; Apple and customers alike.

        Notched iphone user here. Good thing Apple is slow af at updating their hardware so I am not tempted to upgrade lol. On a serious note, once 5g is available in my country I'm gonna jump to $400-500 android flagships. No sense to upgrade to $800-1000 phones for the cameras when we can't even travel anywhere.

          Anonymous, 02 Mar 2021Well, take a good look at iPhone phones every year. Because... moreIPhones are limited in flexibility. You don't have much options like you do on Android. Hope Apple brings huge screen upgrades, camera upgrades, charging upgrades to make the $1000 price worth it. Since the Iphone 12 Pro was underwhelming

            pesches132, 02 Mar 2021"Innovation" from apple nice, gonna call punch-ho... moreHey, it's dotted for extra pleasure (of the execs and share holders ofc)

              React 2 Gadgets YT, 02 Mar 2021No one will care for Apple again since Chinese brands espec... moreNot to mention i don't know what Xiaomi plans for the Mi 11 Ultra, it will basically destroy Iphone 13 Pro max in every way.

              1. 1440p 120hz OLED
              2. 50 + 48 + 48 + 12 Quad camera. Mi 10 Ultra has the best video in android of 2020, (stabilization was insane!), and the photo quality was very good, and you don't need night mode for every night shots. Lowlight videos was also better than Samsungs and Huaweis.
              3. Legendary charging speeds. 120W Wired, 80W Wireless, Reverse wireless charge that not even Iphone will have
              4. USB TYPE C, Chargers in box (hope so), NFC for other payment
              5. Glass metal sandwich
              6. Lower than a thousand bucks

                Well, take a good look at iPhone phones every year. Because after that, all the rest of the android will follow thru.

                  iPhone SE keeping the same 4.7-inch iPhone 6 form-factor in 2022 is absurd. They should use the 5.4-inch iPhone 12 mini form-factor.

                    No one will care for Apple again since Chinese brands especially Xiaomi has been really killer. Even the $300 Redmi K40 already offered almost the whole package of the rumoured Iphone 13.

                    1. High refresh Rate 120hz E4 OLED with insane brightness and HDR (No LTPO though)
                    2. 4520mah Battery with charger, brick, cable, accessories in the box
                    3. Incredible performances 870 and Sub 6 5G with cooling system that not even Iphone will have (7nm, but still plenty powerful)
                    4. Stereo speakers, NFC for google pay, IP rating
                    5. Glass and metal sandiwch With GG5 (not victus, but for its price, awesome.
                    6. Good main camera, this is one area where the difference is very significant, but install Gcam and the daylight photos from the maim cam will be on par. While it falls apart very far in video, ultrawide, and nighttime.

                      "Innovation" from apple nice, gonna call punch-hole camera something like "Dotted-hole Camera XDR".
