I don't see much issue with having a notch on a laptop since it now lives in the middle of the menu bar now. That's typically negative space in most apps anyway

- have_faith 5y agoFor my full screen web browser it's right where the tabs go.
- Wowfunhappy 5y agoI was going to answer "presumably this is why Safari has always put tabs below the address bar", but the most recent version finally changed that by default. :\
- dkonofalski 5y agoNo it's not. In previous iterations, your tabs went below the camera. This doesn't change that.
- have_faith 5y agoNot sure I understand your distinction, the screen is taller now, if my browser wants to render to the top of the screen it has to contend with the notch.
- dkonofalski 5y agoIf your browser changes nothing, the top bar will be blacked out and your tabs will display exactly as before. This only changes if your browser explicitly updates to handle the notched display.
- buu700 5y agoIt sounds like they're saying the OS will automatically add a black bar to the top in fullscreen mode, which will look seamless thanks to the contrast rate of mini LED. If that is the case, it sounds like a pretty elegant solution and significantly reduces my concern about the notch. It also addresses my confusion about some of the images on Apple's website.
