Is it time to accept that cell phone notches are the future?

[Kamikaze Revy]

How bout they make a phone without that corny front facing camera and just make it notch-less.
I get that the majority of phone users are narcissistic morons who love to share pictures of themselves, but at least someone could offer something for the crowd that couldn't care less about a front facing camera.
Also, if they are going to use that notch, they need to figure out a way to keep the aspect ratios correct.
All that screen space is pointless if when you watch a video, the ratio is jacked up to accommodate for the notch.

We now have all with notches on them:
The Essential Phone
Xiaomi Mi 7
Huawei P20
The G7
The One Plus 6
The iPhone X
.

I’m willing to bet money that you have everyone of these phones listed

 

[Maschine_Man]

I have the X and I really don't see the issue with the notch. its the camera and shyt, and the two sides hold info that phones always held.




I don't really see the big deal.

Android manufacturers are giving us the option of removing it, instead just giving us a black bar at the top.

So you’re a moron if you use your front facing camera?

What about FaceTime?

There is one phone coming out, from Lenovo i think?, that manages to be truly all screen. but other than that, yes the notch is here to stay.

The Samsung patents with the notch on them are also out there
Et tu, Samsung? A patent application shows the dreaded notch


Google is reaching the point where they are now baking the notch options into the OS with Android P. I think the LG G7 is the first major Android flagship to have it and if Samsung is considering it Notches are likely our next step until they can put the cameras under the usable screen.

I know people that don't have phones with notches tend to hate them but it took me about a day to get over the iPhone Xs notch and now I don't even really notice it. Before I owned the iPhone X I hated it's notch and now I couldn't care less about it. I would buy another phone with a notch on it with no issue.

A notch isn't my preference but it also isn't a dealbreaker.

Nope.

Touch this neg

Spoiler

Im just sayin they gotta find a way to get rid of that notch breh. If I had to do it, I'd take a phone without the front camera if it mean having use of the entire screen. Otherwise, I'm straight with my iPhone 6S+ anyway so I'm just crackin jokes.

I'm still on an iPhone 6S+ that has the headphone jack and I never use it.
Wireless headphones are way too convenient and will be pretty much standard soon enough. I don't fault these companies in pushing things forward even if their motivation was based on cost savings.

Not convenient when you want to use them and forgot they are low on charge tho...

Sure, but as this becomes standard people will remember to keep them charged more often, and I would imagine it would make headphone manufacturers compete in terms of battery life.

Taking away customer options is not pushing things forward. It's just a way for them to make more money by selling adaptors

The hell is a notch ?
