lol yep a compromise for something that doesn't work very well.

But yea that notch is horrible from a design point of view, it's the 1st thing I thought when i saw one in the flesh recently, just gets in the way, I really don't see what other features it's allegedly going to bring in the future that would be worth losing that screen area for. Aweful.

iphone 7 is £439

I'm currently using my old Note 4 it still takes amazing photos and the P2 still works perfectly just the glass is shattered from one end to the other with 100+ cracks and I don't think repair shops carry the glass for them or if they do it's nearly as much as the phone cost according to forum posts i've seen.

So losing a relatively small area of the screen is an absolute show stopper... That there sounds like Fandroid Apple rage to me.

Don’t see his outrage at every Samsung watch.

I see it as two extra bit of screen at the top, very much like his screen on the edge.

Anyhow ******* thanks for keeping the thread alive.

Problem is it doesn't add anything useful to the sub-forum. If anything it almost becomes unusable because any mention of Apple gets certain people forthing at the mouth desperatly hunting for some sort of minor issue/complaint to justify their personal vendetta against Apple.

Probably because its just a watch, which I would never get as the idea is just ****.

And the edges are actually useful if used properly with the right apps. Use it all the time, no complaints at all.

That's Windows spell check for you As for if you don't like it, don't read it. When's that stopped the pair of you hounding Jack and plastering this section with your "unique" hatred of everything Apple.
