Do you equate acceptance wth approval?…but the notch is something that will be accepted in time and will be an iconic part of iPhones going forward.
I blame Ive.I couldn’t disagree more. But damn he’s a good writer.

In this instance I see acceptance as surrender.

I think love is as strong a word as hate. In the threads about hate I have said I don't hate Apple, but I do have a critical opinion of some of their current decisions.It’s impossible not to be hyper critical of apple since they created the standard and benchmark for excellence imo, but also they have dropped the ball, because its a company many of us have legit loved for so long. Now it so obviously feels like a bean counting corporation thats a bunch of talented engineers glued together without a laser focus philosophy or vision, also with deep pockets.. more than a company, or a very personal feeling, appeal wise, type of products. The cracks are showing.
It’s like breaking up with bae, its tough.

In the same way, however, I don't love Apple either. But I do love some of their products.
Perhaps it stems from the fact that my background is PC. I used Macs only at work and I didn't convert to Apple until 2003. I didn't get my first brand new iPhone until 2012.
My point in bringing that up is that I have never been one of those all-in Apple fans. I get and use what I like and don't what I do not like. I also do not like being dependent on any one particular company for a product or service.
I'm just disappointed with Apple is all.
OP you cant just “not disagree more” and not provide any points to substantiate why you feel this way.
Mostly because I’m really curious of your views now![]()
Josh is great, but the notch is something that will be accepted in time and will be an iconic part of iPhones going forward. Design is often so subjective.
Here is something I've noticed at the risk of comparing Jobs/Cook.Yeah thats what I mean is their products being in love with, not Apple themselves, but just saying ‘Apple’ as an extension of the products they make.
never was a SJ- kool aid drinker but i think he made results happen concretely.
Firing Forestall feels political/emotional/like a bad move on iOS front at least.
And maybe even design.
What is Jony up to, for real? Design wise, and iOS look wise? Been chilling since iOS 7 and iPhone bod, eh?

Steve told you what he thought: You're holding it wrong! A live funeral for OS9. We're done with floppy drives., etc. It was up to you to deal with it - or not.
Tim justifies things. The other day he justified the price of the iPhone X on live TV as Apple providing a better product for it's customers. That may be true, but it's a justification.
That's what I see with Apple now, a move from conviction to justification.
Just my opinion.
As to Ive…I think he exists in an echo chamber of like minded people.
I will be up ALL NIGHT on October 26th to make sure I'm awake at 3:01am on October 27th. I am so psyched!
There is nothing subjective about the notch being unintelligent design. That’s a fact governed by human intelligence. Intelligent humans know why the notch is unintelligent. It’s really as simple as understanding how humans perceive, and in this case the perception is sight and the fact that light enters into the eye and is translated into electro-chemical stimuli that travel to the brain and produce an image to the brain as to what this thing in existence looks like (for the propagation and sustainment of the lifeform of course), and this perception is extremely sensitive to uniformity in the light, it became such evolutionarily. When you take a display and make it non-uniform, you then draw the attention of the brain toward this. It’s the exact opposite of what intelligent humans would do. Your goal is not to distract, but to focus. Ironically Apple used the term most opposite of what this experience will result in: immersive.Josh is great, but the notch is something that will be accepted in time and will be an iconic part of iPhones going forward.

Saying you love the notch is admitting you follow and jump off the bridge if the person leading you does. It’s accepting what you think is good because of who did it, it’s not thinking for yourself as to why it’s objectively terrible.Saying you love the notch is like saying you love the antenna lines. you don't, but you deal.
the notch for others is a deal breaker since it interacts with the screen by being overlaid into it. its not even implemented properly without black to the left and right to make it seamless when on. looks super protoype-y/not ready for primetime.
