Apple Notch called the MacBook Pro display a smart move

Apple recently introduced a new generation of MacBook Pros, and one of the new appearance features we saw in these devices was the notch or screen cut. An issue that did not receive good feedback from users, but the Cupertinoites have decided to defend their decision. They called the installation of the MacBook Pro display notch a smart move. Notch is a common theme on smartphone screens, but with a new move, Apple is likely to launch a new trend in notebooks.

According to the note David PogueThe notch on the screen of the MacBook Pro 2021 is the location of the new 1080p webcam and True Tone sensor, which adjusts the color of the screen according to the environment, and a light sensor adjusts the brightness of the screen and the keyboard of the device according to the ambient light. There is also an LED for webcam use in this section. But as mentioned, many Apple fans and consumers did not react well to the notch of the new generation MacBook Pro. Apple’s MacBook Pro series product manager has spent nearly 10 minutes defending this type on the Same Brain podcast.

Negative users’ reaction to the notebook of MacBook Pro and Apple’s defense of this design

Talking about the new generation 16-inch MacBook Pro, which can cost up to $ 6,000, Shruti Haldea said that even with the notch, the device is still equipped with a 16-inch panel with a 16:10 aspect ratio in full screen mode. . The reason for this is that Apple has enlarged the screen and moved the menu bar to the top of the screen, where the notch is located, which is a very clever move to provide more space for users to display content. Haldea also noted that when users use full screen mode, black bars appear on the sides of the notch, making them almost indistinguishable. And with features like dark mode, Apple is expected to make it impossible to detect black bars. Apple also emphasizes that in the new design, it has reduced the screen margins by 60%.

With all this talk, it is unlikely that Notch opponents will be able to change their minds about this type of design. However, Apple believes in its decision and believes that it has made a smart move. A claim that is not new. The Cupertinos in the past, with changes such as the removal of the 3.5 mm jack from the iPhones, also believed that they had made a bold move. A move that led other manufacturers to follow Apple’s decision, and today most of the new phones without headphone jack enter the market.
