Apple's notch came out like 3 months after the Essential phone had one? I don't think it's possible for them to have seen the notch, and then reengineered the phone in that short of a time.
- distances 8y agoYes, they were likely developed simultaneously. Point stays though, that was the trend phones were going to adapt and Apple was just one of the devices doing the same thing. "Nokia had that ten years ago" is a common quip during all Apple launch events for a reason. And there's also a good reason why Nokia's phones didn't survive the market pressure despite that.
