I’m definitely not buying an Android, but I’ll hold onto my (perfectly functional) X until Apple figures out what to do with the notch.

This is no comparison between two phones. This is basically a tourist video showing video of a drive by. How would anyone call this a comparison video. And enough about the freaking notch or the punch out. None of this **** matters. The iOS system is way better than that android operating system. And as far at the stupid conversation about the bezels. What will people argue about when the bezel width is -2 mm?
 
I ignore the notch as well but it still looks awful compared to the front of the S21

Plus touch ID is more valuable now
Making business decisions for events that will last only few months is crazy. I really resisted FaceID but it is better than TouchID. It’s amazing. And those special sensors need more space than the simplistic face recognition on other systems.
 
That photo looks much cleaner on the iphone for what it's worth.
 
I like Samsungs phone designs better than Apples but i prefer ios over Android.
 
Apple need to put a square OLED screen on the back of the iPhone and the notch is gone forever.
 
I think you are just used to over saturated photos on the Samsung that are not useful to anyone else and videos that get over compressed using oog format that us over 20 years old and used on my first smartphone the Treo. Horrible experience when sending video. There is a reason iPhones have been used by high end professional photographers, and to shoot feature films when it is important to capture accurate details. Samsung doesn't get that at all.
No. It's the Apple lottery. I have had many iPhones and some screens are much better than others. I'm not talking about saturation, I'm talking about color temperature. I know what I'm talking about.

Under-screeh finger print sensors were introduced way before the pandemic. They just happened to be more convenient than face id during the pandemic.

That would a horrible UI descision. It would not adress the camera issue that results in the notch; and require a user to flip the phone to see what is displayed. Cases would need another cutout and magnetic mounts would be problematic, plus there is the location of the wireless charging pad to consider. Seperate small displays were useful in the flip phone days, but not with today's designs.
