So something I haven’t seen people talk about is that the new notch is way worse by the fact it’s deeper and actually eats into the display space. Watching the same YouTube videos on a phone with the old notch was never a problem.
You mean on a phone? Have you ever been in public?Wasn’t aware people watched content like that

If you crop in you are not seeing the full content - you are cropping off the top and bottom - I wasn't aware people watched content like thatBut that’s not full screen. Just the standard it’s set at until you crop in
Correct, notch drops down further into the display, only a little, 1mm perhaps? But its enough to be visible when watching 16:9 content.Are you saying that the new notch goes lower into the screen, further into the screen, even though it takes up less space on the sides?
like it traded space in one direction for space in the other?
I have never had an iPhone with a notch, and hope I don’t find it too annoying. I figure Video is typically less narrow so won’t be cut off (unless maybe some video programs can display content which is wider than 16:9 with smaller or no letterboxing, in which case it matters?)
I wonder if it would make more sense to have a notchless phone that’s just a few mm taller for the sensor?

I literally never notice the notch, it’s a non-issue for me.
Seems like a personally preference really. If the notch bothers you, get a different phone. Old or new notch, it's how the display is. The way you watch, seems to be cropped.

I honestly wouldn't have even noticed that the notch changed if I didn't know about it ahead of time. I also don't even notice it while I'm using the phone.I literally never notice the notch, it’s a non-issue for me.
This explains why I never noticed it before. Whenever I watch YouTube videos I always play them through Safari.Saw this post on the r/apple on Reddit and it states that it's a Youtube issue for property displaying the video sizes.

I didn’t notice it on the X or on the 13. It just disappears for me. If I need it for a movie I’m usually watching the center of the screen, rarely is the edge even a focal point for me.Get some glasses. You cannot be without seeing the notch.
