Sharing this from Reddit, it makes the top bar black for the notch to blend in

Got my 16" M1 Max today. Overall I'm extremely happy with it except for a couple of things. I don't care for the notch, but will have to learn to get used to it I guess. Also, Promotion doesn't appear to be working in Safari. Its jittery when I scroll and I don't see this massive difference over the previous MacBook Pro's.
Update:
So, crazy thing happened...as I was leaving to pick up my in store 14-inch MacBook Pro, the UPS delivery person came to my home and dropped off my laptop!
I finally got it!
And, I canceled my in store pickup, which I thought for sure, was going to be my 14-inch MacBook Pro...
UPS couldn't have timed it any better, could they?
UPS was supposed to deliver the laptop anytime between 11am - 3pm, and they came by around 4:20pm, precisely the time I was leaving to pick up the 14-inch MacBook Pro for in-store pick up:
My in-store pick up was scheduled at 4:45pm:
I am at least grateful that the laptop wasn't delayed, damaged, or missplaced, like some unfortunate people today.
But what an experience! Time to experience the magic of that MagSafe, Micro/Mini-LED + ProMotion display and the power of the M1 Pro SoC! Let's go!!!!

Are you noticing any scrolling issues in Safari? It does not seem super smooth to me.
First thing I noticed as well, maybe a software issue, or apple is using cheap ass displays. ?♂️
There’s a Thread that talks about this and there is speculation that it is due to Monterey.

Jeez I hope its software. The scrolling in Safari is a massive disappointment for me.
Mine moved from nov 5-10 to nov 2 delivery
That’s awesome! I hope that it arrives even sooner than the Nov 2 delivery.
Not a deal breaker, is a little disappointing though, safari looks blurry when scrolling on my 16" model, nowhere near as smooth as the 120hz on my iPhone and iPad Pro, if apple is calling this 120hz, they are BS everyone.
My guy rang the doorbell even though I left a sign authorizing it to be left. He said he wanted to make sure I got it.
I’m hoping mine does the same thing but no movement yet. Still stuck at processing.
I'm actually in the middle of downloading Monterey now. I'm hoping that the architecture on the binary is universal so it can run on both Intel and Silicon (I would assume that it is, otherwise no Intel Mac that is currently supported could update to Monterey). I'm going to try to create the USB boot stick from Sierra, so when I get the new Mac, I can just do a straight clean reinstall and not worry about the build that is on the Mac when it was shipped.
BL.
Whew this thread moves fast!
I got my 14” MacBook Pro delivered today along with my AirPods 3.
(Side note: The new AirPods sound amazing compared to the old ones. Wow.)
I still had mixed feelings going from 16" to 14" so I didn't even open the box. After UPS dropped it off, I ordered the 16” this afternoon for in store pickup. I did a pickup & return in one fell swoop. FAMOUS LAST WORDS: I don’t think I’ll impulsively order a new Mac design immediately again after an Apple event announcement like I did on October 18th, now that I know they have in store pick up on launch day haha.
After obsessing about these new MacBook Pros I need a breather…just to enjoy it & life haha. Life is good!

That's a really dumb angle to shoot it as a comparison, considering that the actual depth is not substantially different. The new models just have more volume because they don't taper, which is missing on the old model because it's hidden by the edge.
I was in an Apple Store yesterday, Monday…there were so many people in the store you literally could not walk down an aisle. I can’t even begin to imagine what it was like today!
Sims 4 with the Farmland mod installed and others. It takes a bit of getting used to in build mode as the UI seems off by a few mm
Videos on this screen are next-level
And the edges are softer so they feel better in the hand. They're not sharp like on the previous models.
There was no one at my local apple store yesterday, thanks to restrictions. 😜🥰😂 normally you can't move in there.
And an Apple case for your glasses? Where did you find that treasure??
What is the record for the longest thread in MacRumors history?
Just put one of the black Apple stickers on it. Done!
Time to turn this beast off for a bit and enjoy the sunshine outside, final battery life update for this afternoon.
??? The rest of the competition should retire now. ???? MacBook has been on for over 6 hours, approaching 6 hours usage with 74% left ?? I'm getting turned on. ?
