I have never taken a selfie in my entire life. The feature is entirely pointless for me. Are there any smartphones that don’t have a front facing camera?

    I wish the popup feature went mainstream, I too dislike a peephole in my screen.

    I wonder if they didn’t catch on because it made spying on people more difficult.

      I assume most people don’t care about a notch for the front facing camera so OnePlus didn’t continue it since it adds complexity.

        You are most likely correct, it’s a mechanism that can fail. Apple normalised notches and people buy them no matter what, so the others follow.
