I wish they completely removed it if possible... But since it's probably out of reach just reduce it as much as it possible I suppose.
 
iPad don’t haven notch, and I use it a lot. iPhone has notch, and I don’t use it that often. Guess it says something. Noticeable? Yes, kinda. Annoying? A bit but less so after using it. Still, no notch should be the way to go.
 
I own a 2019 iPhone 11 Pro, and before having this, I was disappointed about notch and - sorry for the little ot - digital gestures and FaceID. But after 4 days of using it, I'd like to say that I love all of these... even the notch.... it's not that bad.... well stylish speaking a completely notch free front face would be the top choice.... but if Apple engineers can make a more little notch with mode advanced sensors...this would be a goal.
 
There’s no such thing as a ‘notch adjustment’.
Did I notch make myself clear?

Don’t get technical with me, RR! You know I meant reduction in the True Depth camera system cluster! 😏


If they still cannot get it completely off then I’d love for it to be shorter and slightly narrower, for me personally.

Yes of course, but if you had to choose one?

Thread is to get a gauge on what people prefer - a narrower notch or a shallower notch.

Yes, you made yourself clear, and maybe my point wasn’t really directed at you, but more or less some of the other members who overexaggerate about the notch compared to ‘real world’ usage.
 
After a X, XS max, XR and 11 pro I don’t even notice it. So don’t care what they do.

Smaller or gone would be better in my view. It’s never really done it for me.

I don’t, but if you watch a lot of video or movies on your 8 plus you’d hate any of the notch phones.
