> the notch has to be the dumbest design decision in the history of laptops

Agreed. It's such a bad bad bad design. No reason to hide the camera. Just make the bezel taller. Its fine.

It's just as bad as the notch/pill on the iPhone. Drives me crazy everytime I look at it.

Can't wait til we move to a notch free world.

Never gonna happen. Apple sales continue to grow despite the notch, so obviously users LOVE the notch.

The notch is here until we can put a camera and any other sensors inside the screen without losing pixels.

  • I understand its Apple's current policy, but you did contradict yourself by saying never gonna happen and it's only here until we can put sensors inside the screen.

    And I doubt users LOVE the notch. They tolerate the notch at best, and if you gave them a non-notch device, they'd instantly see the would hate the notch.

      The comment was supposed to be rather tongue-in-cheek.

      I'm poking fun at how companies will make a change to a product, people still buy the product, and the company then assumes that people must like the change.

      Fact is, people will buy the latest iPhone no matter what. They make unpopular changes and people buy them anyways.
