I like the idea and I find it interesting that some people say that they'd buy the X if it had that feature. I'm going to buy the X and I think that I'll get used to the notch and it won't be a problem for me.

Apps on the X will have the color around the notch the same color as the app's navigation bar color. Developers can change the navigation bar color to black to hide the notch a bit, but it may not go with their app's color scheme. Here's my Pressed Coins-WDW app on the X Simulator. Imagine the notch space as being black.

Notch would look better with AMOLED black ears and white indicators. Thanks for sharing your app view.

I hated that mouse with the passion of a thousand burning suns. And its successor was only better in that it was more natural in shape then its predecessor I still hated it.



Back on topic this would make me a lot less leary about the X if it had that feature and I think utilzies the OLED display perfectly. But we shall see what companies do about it especially game companies. Also Apple could have done some interesting things with a dynamic and permanent on screeen status bar. Maybe game developers will use it for having stats there or something who knows. I am not about ready to dump it out an airlock yet but I am defintiely going to give the marketplace time to mature about the notch first before I jump over to that form factor.
