Yep... everyone wants phablets. Apparently.
I don't mind the cutouts (if done right), they just sit in the notification bar, so they never obscure anything anyway. That's a place Sony could have shaved off the extra height imo, the top and bottom bezels are pretty unnecessary.
We are slowly moving to under-screen cameras now though.
Nothing better than a selfie from a low angle, right?
i think they mean "under" as in "behind".
lol, that’s very possible
Yes that's exactly it. A camera under/behind the display. Not at the bottom of the screen aha (the bottom changes I guess too, depending on your phone rotation).
i mean the bezels together are less than 1cm. and the notch takes space from notifications, with two sim cards and a vpn active that shit overflows instantly anyway.
Fair, I suppose it depends on how the software handles it too. Personally I never let notifications stack up and the VPN for me is on the other side.
vpn is on the right, yeah. but this is with just one sim:
with two i get another signal strength and wifi calling symbol. it's already collapsing them when not on the quick setting screen, which is very frustrating.
FYI, you can disable the icons you don't want/need using (https://github.com/zacharee/Tweaker). Although that doesn't solve the actual problem...
i do want the icons, yeah.
Thanks, I didn't know about this. Though it should just be default settings you can change... size, position, enabled/disabled. All pretty simple settings that should be provided.
