they could have gone notch-less, but they wanted another distinctive silhouette like the OG iPhone had

I cant believe people who pay that much for smartphones. Use. Your. Free. Upgrades.

Of course, Im not so materialistic that I need to rush out and get the newest model. I got the 7+ and it wasnt a month before the X was out. Whats the difference? Literally nothing.

Its seriously hideous. I wouldnt drop 1K on a phone, let alone one with such an ugly design flaw.

Good on Samsung for designing phones with a greater screen-to-body ratio than the iPhone X with no notch. Also, because of the narrow aspect ratio, the X actually has smaller screen real estate than the Plus models.

7+ came out a year before the X.

Though you are allergic to facts so Im not surprised.

Felt no reason to upgrade honestly.
My 6s plus works just fine and can handle the latest games.

You know what's sad? Reading articles/opinions justifying the design feature. The only thing they can fall back on is that it's different. Not that it's clever, or seamless, or breaking boundaries. not that it's beautiful. None of the things that made Apple so standout 10 years ago. No, what makes the notch a great feature is that it doesn't look like a Samsung.

I don't prescribe to fanboyism with stuff like this but that's just pathetic.
