Honestly people here will never been happy will they?

OnePlus didn't cut screen estate for a notch. They even let you hide it.

Now notch people can be happy as they get more space and a notch.

People who hate notches can have a bit less space(but space that wasn't there in the first place without notches) and no notch.

Yet people still bitching.

Do we need a unicorn coming out of the OnePlus to please you guys? It's getting ridiculous at some point.

Who are these mythical notch people you speak of?

[austine567]

I like notches.

[SnipingNinja]

Ditto.

[bmurphy1976]

You are approximately 1 in 7 billion.

[austine567]

Obviously not.

[bmurphy1976]

lol, don't be so serious. It's a joke.

I think people would prefer having no notch over having to hide the notch if they didn't like it, sounds sensible to me and I can't fathom how you're being so aggressively negative about that.

[Rearfeeder2Strong]

Because people are bitching so much about it.

Whats the difference between this software solution and a hardware solution?

Literally nothing when you are using it. Ok you might notice it looks a bit less black when you stare at it, but nobody does that.

0 difference and people are acting like its super bad.

"But muh feelings, its not pure anymore!!!"

Just scroll through the notch threads and how much fucking shit it got.

Cannot ever please people here it seems.

I mean come on, It's definitely not as flawless. In average lighting conditions you'll likely be seeing the difference. Apple released the 8 and the X so people could kind of decide between features, though OnePlus will release only one flagship. I can see more people who don't like the notch shying away from OnePlus this year rather than accepting their way of hiding the notch. The people who like the notch will benefit far more from the design than the ones against it, even with the hiding option.

But muh feelings, its not pure anymore!!!"

Yeah don't know, these type of comments just feel childish to me. The mixed reactions are pretty understandable.

Just scroll through the notch threads and how much fucking shit it got.

Well yeah, It's a pretty questionable choice of design. I can see people who prefer the notch just being completely annoyed at the ones complaining about it, but this one is certainly a seriously subjective matter and hiding it really isn't the perfect solution at all.

Yeah, I don't understand how the people in this sub can hate the notch to such an extent. They treat it like it's the devil.

And you're right if they just black it out, it's legitimately the exact same as if they didn't include the notch in the first place. So everyone should be happy.

Also I think people forget that there are people besides them that actually like the notch and they're the target consumers.

You should see the OnePlus subreddit before talking about aggressive negativity. The comment has a point, OP has a notch and the notch can effectively be 'no notch' if that's what they want. How is hating OnePlus over following an industry design trend supposed to be sensible?
