Other (POLL) Why is Apple moving the Apple logo downwards on the 2019 iPhones?

I think because the camera bump is bigger, and if it were left in the same spot it would look crowded.

This is the reason, it was too close to the camera bump in the old place.

 

[SalisburySam]

Because they want to. It is another of Apple’s “courageous” moves that no one needs nor wants.

 

[Falhófnir]

Yep seems pretty likely it's aesthetic because the camera bump is growing. It looks like it will be in the same place as it currently is on the 11 (XR successor) which has a slightly narrower bump.

 

[thadoggfather]

Or just unified with where Apple logo is on boot screen now

May not be an actual reason that adds features / be internal

 

[Coffee_Time]

They're moving it because it's a FEATURE!

Plausible? There’s only one reason, orientation due to the consumption of the triple lens camera. That’s it.

 

[Carmenia83]

Because you'll be able to charge wireless AirPods by placing them on the Apple Logo, which is now in the center of the Qi coil.

It’s a bigger bump so they wanna go down.... sorry am I the only one that’s finding this funny? Lol.

 

[now i see it]

I believe all answers are "plausible" until Apple gives us a definitive answer, which it never will.

Is this an actual concern of Apple folks?

My first thought to this question was "who cares", but I guess some people do.

 

[compwiz1202]

This and the camera square are these models' LOOK AT ME unique items for the vain users.

Of course.

People will stress over it. Let's hope the death count doesn't reach 'Notch' levels.

Your first thought is spot on.

People who care about something like this really need other things to occupy their days...

 

[kepler20b]

Because they’ve run out of ideas

 

[44267547]

Is this an actual concern of Apple folks?

No, but this a technical site, and you’ll have those who will dissect every facet/part of the iPhone, because some are overly pedantic believing Apple doesn’t know what they’re doing. It’s the time of year mainly.

 

[naturalstar]

It’s another differentiator from last year to this year, but also because that block needs space visually.

 

[forestinjersey]

Who cares, really?

If the rumors of reverse wireless charging on the 2019 iPhones are true, I think it may be a reference point for people on where exactly to place their Airpods or whatever they are charging on the back of the iPhone. You place the device right on the Apple logo for the best results when reverse wireless charging.

That and the camera module.

Per Ben Geskin on Twitter:

And for the record again, the painted camera bump LOOKS MUCH BETTER than the all black.

Option 3: Why does it matter?

I would agree with you, if the camera lenses were about half the diameter that they are in that render. The large diameter (spare me the "because good camera" spiel, I know) looks like clown status on that render, and if that's really the diameter of the lenses, I'd rather see an all black square.
