Similar to what the menu bar is being done in MacOS, hoping there’s an option to turn this masking off
Very unlikely
I believe this will happen… would be such a “wow” factor to all the normies that watch the event
I love it. Specifically the fact it’s being used for something that matters to us ‘PRIVACY’
I prefer the I-pill shape honestly… It would be awesome as a marketing strategy and people would immediately know that that’s an iPhone
Apple be like: It’s for your “PRIVACY”
Why would you care what other people think of your phone? You think you are ‘rich’ for having an iPhone !? Lmao sit down
@Javi Chaco no u didnt understand. He said that this would be basicaly free marketing for apple. Apple wants other users to recognize which phone is iPhone immediately.
Lmao. Sacrifice your screen so people know you are an isheep. Nice
I think it would be a lot less confusing to use 14 max name. People are used to max meaning a bigger version at least thats my opinion.
If it’s just software, apple should make a setting that allows people to either have it as the two separate pieces, or black out the centre. We should have the choice
@hieuniverse They’re using software not hardware. Why wouldn’t it be an option?
@Noah Van Winden Apple hasn’t been known for giving people many choices, but maybe this year they’ll be different.
@Noah Van Winden The same reason why they don’t allow you to hide the notch
@Noah Van Winden The pro line up could have gone notchless that’s the choice
I had a feeling they were gonna do a sort of their back to the og iPhone 4 look for the cutout similar to the ear piece
I like the original design more but either way it’s still better than the notch we have now. This current notch really takes up so much space.
As for this Camera UI rework, personally I’m not a fan. When things are shifted to the top it makes using the phone with one hand a pain.
It’s like the design teams have stopped using phones like a normal person. Hard uncomfortable edges and now this.
I hope the display is taller. It looks like that pill will be down further than the notch so it’s going to interfere with content more than the 13pro notch already does.
Pill + hole punch = clutter. I prefer the clean look of an elongated pill. I think using the blacked out space in between for the privacy indicators would be an efficient use of space.
The pill shape is welcome.led would be nice as an notification indicator. Ever since those dots has been introduced, I thought that would be ideal. Especially for those that don’t want to use the always on display but would prefer the dots as notification led. Like on the Apple Watch! I turn off the always on display because it eats away at the battery very fast. Maybe the tech has improved. With the phones we might experience better usage without the bothersome drainage.
