Yes. I bought a M2 MBP because this is the only Macbook that I can find on the market which has the specs I wanted and does not have the notch.
I also hate the Touch Bar, which to me is useless and annoying, but at least it doesn't look awfully ugly, like the notch.
You can change the display resolution to hide the notch on any Mac and it just makes the top bezel appear as tall as the notch is, which is about the same size as the pre-notch models. Same result, newer hardware options.
I would have prefer they at least performed some Dynamic Island UI trickery with the notch when they added it, instead of it just being a quite literal notch out of the desktop that the OS seems barely aware of.
