iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max

The notch is such a travesty. The fact that they removed landscape mode on the home screen after the iPhone 6S Plus is an affront to any good design principles.

I think it is deliberate so you have to buy an iPad if you want to use it like a mini computer. Beyond disappointing.

I don’t recall ever having landscape orientation on the phone home screen.

It existed on the Plus models. I have an iPhone 6S Plus right next to me that I have rotated home screen icons.

The notch is a whole lot better than a hole punch, in my opinion. If we have to wait another year or two for them to perfect under-screen FaceID or TouchID, I'm all for it.

There are far worse design compromises than the notch.

No there are not. They deprecated very useful functionality to appease a design committee. Right to jail

I agree and apparently it's finally being removed in on the 14.

The year before that the 12 was rumored to be 120 Hz

Good thing they kept it for this year or barely anything would’ve changed
