Not really.
Either way, if the notch is hidden, people will complain that the top bezel is too thick.
yep. especially considering this is not going to make a positive splash in any way.
Not following you comments you have with the other user too much, but x86 in decline is not accurate. The corporate users will not be on anything else for many years. And x86 machines sales will always dwarf Apple sales. By a substantial margin. You statement is fairly accurate in the Apple world, but overall, that's a small world really.
Obviously that’s not the choice. It would be a smaller bezel or more screen real estate.
I started back in IT job a month ago and my conclusion is, x86 owns the enterprise by a wide margin. There are Dell Optiplexes being rolled out every single day. At the end of the day, Windows as a managed client is not going away and neither is x86. That extends beyond the corporate walls. Macs are still luxury clients and will target a certain demographic. Don't get me wrong, its more visible these days. For instance, one of the systems for a user was not working and they brought their 16 inch MacBook Pro to work and never even told us he was using it on the network.
This would be the dumbest thing, dumber than the touchbar. What a wast of screen real estate for a feature that is used like .1% of the time. I guess they did but learn for thier touchbar disaster, or crappy keyboard.
Following a sketchy rumor that claimed the next MacBook Pro models could feature a notch at the top of the display, an alleged photo of a MacBook Pro with a notch was shared today by Weibo account AnyTurtle999, as spotted by Twitter account DuanRui.
A close-up view of the alleged notch at the top of the image appears to show a FaceTime camera, microphone, and an ambient light sensor for True Tone. Earlier this week, a Reddit user claimed that the next MacBook Pro will not feature Face ID despite having a notch, with a Touch ID sensor expected to remain above the keyboard for authentication.
The photo is blurry and it's unclear if it's authentic, so some skepticism is warranted here. If the photo proves to be real, however, it suggests that the next MacBook Pro models could feature very thin bezels around the display.
In the macOS Monterey beta, MacRumors discovered potential display resolutions of 3024x1964 and 3456x2234 for the rumored 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models. When subtracting 74 pixels from the height of both, the resulting 3024x1890 and 3456x2160 resolutions work out to an aspect ratio of 16:10. All of Apple's current MacBooks feature a 16:10 aspect ratio, leading to speculation that the extra 74 pixels could be for a notch.
Apple is hosting a virtual event on Monday at 10 a.m. Pacific Time, with rumors widely suggesting the event will be focused on redesigned 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models with a faster version of the M1 chip and brighter mini-LED displays. The notebooks are also expected to feature an HDMI port, an SD card reader, and a magnetic power cable, while ditching the Touch Bar in favor of a return to physical Fn keys.

As if Apple would ever offer choice. If they notch it and leave the touch bar that would be a real FU.
Smh. If the phone were a few mm thicker there would be no bump making the soze of the lens a moot point
Again, phones are much thicker than MBP screens. We should not be comparing phones or tablets with 1mm thin screens. You just can't do the same things.
you are correct in that x86 will continue the dominance for some time, but:
Thank you. The reply I wanted to write would get me banned. Appholes are out in force over a rumor that’s probably not true.
The rest of the phone is irrelevant to the thickness of the sensor and lens, which is what’s being discussed.
What magical land have you lived in for the past 20 months??? The rest of us live in a place where were glued to virtual meetings all day every day. Nevermind apple has been shoving camera tech from 2010 in macs all this time in the most inexcusable fashion. One Apple put 480 P cameras an IMAX every Windows computer in the world was already at 720.
He isn’t defending it, he’s saying he would prefer the existing camera over the notch. If the upgraded camera were in bezel that post wouldn’t exist.
Used to be. Depending on model you can get 1080 even on the buget Inspiron line. Business models push the lower rez to being costs down.The webcam in that computer is 720p.
it is all a rumor until Apple presents and publishes specs ... but I should have put a "/s" into my comment.
