Amazing how a handful of people keep knocking the X at every turn. What is motivating them to go so hard after a phone?

Are you sure, he's only posted like a million posts everywhere knocking it. I kind of figured he was undecided

They like put down others to justify their own buying decisions. That's all this site is.
It’s simply a silly argument that can go no where. All conjecture with out any potential proof unless Steve left behind a secret diary document of future plans. Which could be argued that directions could change given new tech and market conditions unknown at time of writing.
Hey I wont post my personal opinion any more if it bothers you that much
I dont want you to feel bad for wasting your money on it

Being on the leading edge of tech is a hobby of mine. So it won't be wasted money
Who knows how the X will turn out, I don't and I suspect other than an opinion on how it looks in a handful of photos, do you.
So maybe if we wait until the phone is out we can an intelligent discussion on it. But that discussion should be between folks who have it, not folks on the outside looking in.
are you sure they didn’t cut a couple of notches in the bezel and fill it with additional screen?
because to me at least, that’s what it looks like they did.
If Apple would allow the developers to fill it in with black then I would be fine with it, Apple not allowing any function to it is disappointing, it would give both sides what they want
i think the UI guidelines are just that.. guidelines. not hard rules.
we'll very likely see apps that do what you're talking about.
Lol
That's one positive way to see it.
Unfortunately that part of the phone with half touch screen and half unusable hardware space is a total turn off to me.

I'll have to test it out in person when it comes out but until then discussion about it can still be made.
Because this is obviously a discussion forum with ideas and points that you might not agree on.
Imagine that

I don't think it would give Apple exactly what they want. I think the notch is partly to give the iPhone X a distinct look. So they wouldn't want developers to hide it, as they state in their guidelines.

A discussion forum about things you know very little to nothing about? Sounds more like a gossip forum to me. But feel free to keep telling us how you hate the X based on a few photos you saw online. We’ll give your posts all the credibility they’re due.
I know, its hard to believe
A forum that is actually called mac rumors and people discuss rumors without first using an item. Far fetched idea for sure

Because its valued at $1000.00. Thats why its a piece of crap. At that display size......thats a big NO NO !!!!
Rumors are different than what you’re doing. Your just trolling the X.
But have a nice life, moving on to posts of value.

Uuff! Wait till november this forum will break with all the 8 vs X trash. It will be memorable.
Am I the only one who remembers the Fake News that Apple was doomed unless they released an iPhone mini/nano?

Glad someone said it. Better to not feed the trolls. I forget who, but someone’s post opened my eyes. This board seems to have optimists and pssemists. Is the glass full or half empty?
Is the iPhone X’s notch allowing for more usable space or is it cutting into the screen and reducing usable space? I’m the optimist. The notch enabled Apple to gain a higher screen to body ratio over previous models.
Wow I rarely ever log into post but this is some next level coping with a strong name to logic ratio. I hope you aren't serious.
Like that's some olympic gold medal worthy mental gymnastics
The notch is terrible design, compounded by the fact that they don't bother blacking it out when necessary. In what world is this acceptable?
