I just never got that idea and all I can think of is that people fear anything that is personally different.

Yes, popularity contests are usually the most accurate.

Apple makes really great devices with great performance and usability, yet like any company, not all of their choices are ideal. If you polled Apple users about whether the iPhone would be better without a notch I bet only the most extreme fanboys would say no.

What one wants and what one finds acceptable are two different conversations. as an example, I would WANT FaceID under the screen, but that isn’t feasible at an acceptable quality, for an acceptable cost, at an acceptable scale, so I accept that is something to move towards.

At least with the iPhone they have the excuse of FaceID and a bezel so narrow no camera could fit there. These new MacBooks really can’t make that argument.

If you looked at the technology in the screen — and how thin they got it — you would understand these aren’t cellphones and the improved camera needs to go somewhere.
