I personally don’t care about the Notch but my screen looks massive with the Apple supplied all black wallpaper. The Notch is literally erased thanks to the Oled screen. It also saves on battery since less pixels are being lit up.

The problem with the notch for some is in full screen videos, games, and landscape apps, especially Safari. Not so much the home screen, although that is a nice solution for it.

I feel like those who don’t like faceid tend to not like the notch. I’m a big fan of it after being skeptical from the tried and true touchid. But I love it so the notch doesn’t bother me a bit only time I notice is when I look at it to log in to my phone or an app.
 
Screen shots may not show the notch but my screen shot is an actual depiction of how my phone looks. The Notch becomes invisible.

I hear ya, just think a picture would have shown it better. Good idea though for those interested.

I have said it before, the notch is an adjustment When you start using the iPhone X. It is definitely something that you will notice immediately when you start using it, but I don't think it something that many tend to focus on to the point where it distracts them from using the iPhone X normally. Most who intend on purchasing the iPhone X, are not ultimately bothered by the notch.
 
It's funny, people used to jailbreak to get AWAY from black screens - for a long time, it was the only way to have wallpaper. Now everyone thinks black is awesome. Lol
