I just dont understand why not leave it the pill shape ? It's more ugly now with a hole for camera and then that dead pixel cluster hole next to it
Like Copy Xiaomi Mi Mix style bezel to have it enough to have the camera in it and then the needed sensors all in that 3-4mm bezel while you have the best screen with no holes in it for content viewing. Or be like Meizu 16s
Anton the. Papi, 30 Mar 2026Luckily, this will disappear next year with the iPhone XX. Everything points to Apple mounting... moreOn most Android devices, the little camera cutout sits in the notification bar and regular 16:9 video doesnt even reach to edge of the screen.
It's literally a non-issue. Under display camera quality is way worse and is not worth it at all.
Apple's cutout is just far too large, so you actually lose a significant portion of the vertical screen, but is still better than under display.
Jemek, 30 Mar 2026You are the one (like many others) crying every time someone borrows a feature from Apple. Now... moreApple's crappy, but Honor is copying Apple's ID, so what? that just means Honor is even more crappy than Apple, I think you might be happy now
still, you are drafting out whataboutism, what's next? did I say Apple is fine when doing copying? that's your speculation, please read others reply before typing
I don't know folks here are getting a pass for criticizing other brands by trashing Apple first. and you might be living under a rock. look around, spot how Honor is copying Apple...
Apple is just getting better & better! Truly the king of smartphone!

Now Apple is doing the same (who cares the reason, can't they make it more original?) and all of a sudden it's fine. Pathetic. Either stop complaining about Honor or say the same about Apple.
And yes, stupidity is hurting my brain, thanks for asking.
Hikari, 30 Mar 2026What 2 MP camera?? I think you mean a 3d TOF sensorSome of their devices with a pill actually have only one useful selfie and another useless depth camera, just for "aesthetic" if you're a pill lover.
So expect it to go near punch hole in iPhone 20 series.

but Honor surely has been an apple copy cat recently, did calling it out that Honor lost identity by copying iPhone hurt you?
have you ever seen a phone with useless 2mp aux front camera to form a pill-like shape pretending it has 3D face unlock or advanced selfie capability?
Anton the. Papi, 30 Mar 2026Luckily, this will disappear next year with the iPhone XX. Everything points to Apple mounting... moresoon iphone will be a copy cat
oops it always has been since
copying honor6 plus dual cam
!
and it has copied xiaomi poco
m 3 back design and now this
is following the path of nubias
under display camera too and
un til then apple will no longer
be call ed a copy cat but copy
king which apple deserves lol
!
Y'all are too pessimistic about this, it's a step in the right direction. Until in-display cameras get as good as their naked counterparts this is what we'll be stuck with.
Apple, the milk industry king. Why not just put the entire thing under there than this iterative thing, since it's possible.
Finally, after several years of research, they reach the size of the Galaxy S10+ pill shape hole !
MrSTTEK, 30 Mar 2026so why Honor failed to keep placing the cutout at left corner but followed iPhone layout?
.... moreAre You for real? EVERYONE moved back to the middle. This was an experiment, like the pop-out selfie camera. Apple didn't "invent" going back lmao.
This just shows us how close-minded apple fan-girls are. No matter who invented it, it's apple's when they use it.
The Android Freak, 30 Mar 2026Improve camera and software, why this nonsense stuff? Nobody cares about this stuff. They care enough to hold a piece of glass which makes sense.
