So, OnePlus has come out and said the phone will have a notch. People are freaking out over this (just read the comments on the verge's article). I think they're way overreacting to this. There is a very easy solution to notches that LG has already implemented.
1.) Have an OLED screen (most modern phones do).
2.) Make the screen on either side of the notch black.
3.) Keep your status bar icons in that black out section
Boom. Easy solution. Now you don't have the "ugly" notch, but instead you have the same bezel you would've had without the notch, but now it houses your status bar, too!
Here's a picture:
I'm curious what you guys think.
