My 16" MBP would be a perfect device if they could either put the webcam/sensor array behind the glass or just get rid of it. If I want to FaceTime I can use an iPad or iPhone as a peripheral attachment. At this point, virtually perfect hardware is being ruined by a notch. :( It's a reminder every time that there are still design limitations to overcome and engineering feats to be achieved for the next 1,000 years. 8D


By "behind the glass" you mean underneath the display? Because it's already covered in glass, right?


well, at least you've given a very generous timespan for them to resolve it


I imagine this will come to iPhone first, then MacBook’s (maybe limited to the Pro’s?) a year or two later.


faceid under screen on iphone is still several years out


you really don't notice it after a few days


laptop stockholm syndrome? :)


I think it's probably closer to the thing where everyone has blind spots in their field of view where the eye has blood vessels but you just don't ever notice it because your brain fills in the details.

Not to say that I can't see it, it just doesn't affect the way I interact with the machine.


It’s just how the human visual system works. How do you feel about the large amount of your visual space is blocked by your nose. Close one eye and look at your nose. It’s surprising how much is blocks but you are essentially blind to it.
