At least Samsung is putting the front-facing camera on the long side where it belongs.
 
Notches look the worst on tablets. Why? Because you can use them in multiple orientations. I was so glad Apple didn't put a notch into the iPad. I think they understand that point. Clearly Samsung does not!

Samsung tablets are rarely used in portrait mode because they are too wide. They are used most of the time for watching videos or other media consumption. They can't be compared to iPads. And a 14.6in tablet is even less likely to be used in portrait mode (the other models have no notch, but bigger, iPad pro-like, bezels)
 
I would have bought a newer MBP instead of my 2019 MBP if it wasn't for that notch. Hopefully Apple gets rid of it.
Same. I'm hoping my 2014 model (which looks and feels as new as the day I bought it incidentally) can carry on until this pernicious era is over.

Just wait til the iPad Pro gets a notch next…

Personally I am fine even with the large notch on the Macbook pro, which can be easily hidden in software, but I am not in the market for one, I am waiting for the redesigned M2 Macbook. But rumours talk of a white notch and I don't see how you could hide a damn white notch... I really hope Apple change their mind and either use a black notch or no notch at all. I mean white bezels are already bad enough, but I can live with that. But a white notch, especially if big would be pretty terrible...
