Statistically speaking, no one cares about the notch (at least not on the iPhone). The article points out the notch, but the point is that the XR has the same "edge-to-edge" display as the iPhone X. That's what people want, and they're willing to deal with the notch to get it. The main notch issue is Android phones adding it, but forgetting that the entire point of it was so that the screen would be edge-to-edge; Android phones with notches still ship with large chins, which means that not only do you get an unsightly notch, but you don't even get an edge-to-edge display in return.

Is there a good way to see how many people care about the notch versus being fine or liking the status symbol?
People (especially apple haters) are way more vocal when complaining than when "not caring." I do not think any significant portion of potential buyers are skipping phones with notches.

Has the notch moved from "laughingstock" to "cool"? Did I miss something?
