Is funny how people who say bad things in certain posts are the ones who don’t have a real account.
And the same people are asking arena to block other users who have real accounts, just because they like a certain brand.
Is easy to say bad things when you are hiding behind an anonymous nickname.

it still looks enormous! they also still have very thick bezels and the notch is there since 2017 while all other moved on. this is pathetic for sure but who cares the people who buy this dont look any further.

It's 2021 and some people still don't understand, why Apple can't have a smaller notch...
It's NOT just a single camera, like the rest of the smartphones.
It has actually SIX sensors (+ speaker & microphone) in that notch embedded.
- 7MP Camera
- Infrared Camera
- Dot Projector
- Proximity Sensor
- Flood illuminator
- Ambient light sensor
- Speaker
- Microphone
These things above need room to work efficiently. It may not look very pleasing at first, but you get used to it very fast.

Article quote, "This redesign will mark the first notch alteration since Apple announced the iPhone X back in 2017."

Why people keep saying notches are intrusions into display? By what logic? Notches or more their cutouts on the sides are expansions of displays, not intrusions into displays. You can't call something that we never had as intrusion into display. That would only be if we had full displays beyond where notches are and then get notches taking that away. We never had that. We did got extra space where they put status icons, battery status and clock. So, how can one call extra display surface we got as "intrusion"? What only annoys me is how functional stuff in programs or photos are expanded beyond notch limit. Whole point of notches was that status icons and clock are not taking up space reserved for programs, photos or videos. But some phone vendors apparently forgot the point of notches along the way and made them annoying because s**t not meant to be displayed there is being displayed underneath notch which you can't even see.

[deleted post]Sensor-shift stabilization, stainless steel frame, ceramic shield, 5 years of software updates, better optimization and can play games smoothly compared to 120hz android phones.
And look how much time it took for android to adopt 4K@60.
Hope android catches up soon.

Anonymous, 19 Apr 2021Still doesn't change the fact that it is ugly. atleast its better than having a hole-punch cutout in the screen. even better, just do what Sony does and dont have a notch, and put some sweet front firing speakers.

Can it be measured by eye or do you need a microscope?

I'm amazed they're shrinking the notch and expanding mmwave support! No, actually I'm not. They should get rid of the notch and no one cares about mmWave except for the US.

Strawhat, 19 Apr 2021When this smaller notch come, all android competition will ... moreAndroid may introduce under panel camera but it won't as good as one in the notch of an iPhone. Can OnePlus 9 Pro, Xiaomi Mi11 Ultra record 4k60 using a selfie cam. After so many years Samsung has adopted 4k60. Now, say who is late in adopting new technology??
