They put that stupid black thing at the top of the phone...
- balls187 9y agoUnsure why this was downvoted, but that black bar at the top really ruins the "full screen" effect.
- seanalltogether 9y agoThey just showed a full screen video and the black bar was blocking part of the video. This looks really bad while demoing with views animated in real time.
- Grazester 9y agoThe Essential phone has a dot in the middle but The Verge review said that you get used to it and it becomes invisible essentially.
- r3bl 9y agoWhy would you want to get used to missing a part of the content displayed in full screen?
- Grazester 9y agoContent doesn't go missing that's why. When you are watching a video that part of the screen is not used on Android. The area would be a black bar at the top/side and Android doesn't put anything in that part of the screen(middle) when in an app or homescreen
- r3bl 9y agoI would have nothing against it if that's the case, but that's not what they showed in the demo.
- gschrader 9y agoI hope by the time I upgrade they figure out how to get the screen overtop all the cameras. The black section looks horrible.
- spike021 9y agoI think the original rumors said they were trying to make the cameras work beyond the glass/display but winded up not quite getting it to work, so they winded up with the notch this time.
- kamaal 9y agoThe plan is to remove that next year and sell it as iPhone X1. You want to this milk this for profit every year.
