I mean, I don’t hate it.

I don't hate how it looks, but I don't like it, either. What makes me hate it is the complete lack of functional benefit and the honestly-kind-of-huge loss of functionality. Good luck on basically any website when ~20% of your screen is missing

That's why I like screens that can handle arbitrary 22° rotations to maximize code space

What color are your programming socks?

Details are crucial for programming, not just socks, I think dressing up as different gender helps boost productivity

Phones right now have holes in the top part of their screen. You s have a decent rectangle in the center. The top and bottom can be used for buttons and video controls. Can be used to place gamepad for games. And so on. It would actually move a lot of the overlay off the video. And it would be a more organic shape in the pocket. Also corners are fragile break points when falling down. It would have many benefits.

If you can't see the difference between a tiny front camera hole vs straight up removing the corners of the device, idk what to tell you.

Sounds like the perfect apple product

More like a Nokia product if they were still #1

I would guess it would keep any standard rectangular thing (videos, websites, apps etc) in the square part in the middle. The bottom could be reserved for app short cuts or home buttons, keyboard or something. Top could be for easy access notifications (you could read a full text and respond without closing the main thing you're doing) or maybe a readout from an AI assistant.

Otherwise there are some benefits, it's aesthetically pleasing, I bet it's ergonomically nicer to hold, and the curved edges would make it structurally more sound, less prone to breaking.
