I did google it , nothing answered my question. And for your information the phone isn’t just dead its been on the charger since i posted this and it still didn’t turn on. So clearly its broken or something. You ppl on the internet find any reason to complain. I thought this is what reddit is for … no?

The dynamic island isn't really different than the notch, and it's arguably worse because it intrudes further down into the display (resulting in a smaller display area for videos). As I've said before:

> IMO, the dynamic island is an incredibly fantastic sleight-of-hand way to distract attention away from the fact that the display has a huge hole in it. So, instead of people screaming about the ugly notch or hole, we have people simply talking about the dynamic island.

The vast majority of phone screens these days have some type of cutout, whether it’s an Android or an iPhone. I can live with it. At least on the 13 series the notch got a decent bit smaller so I find it less distracting.

I had the same reaction initially a few weeks into the experience. Without a 3rd party app, the only way out is to edit it and reduce contrast, boost saturation a bit and then paste those edits over all your photos during that photo session. Absolutely pathetic to do this for such an expensive phone.

How is this not a widely publicized issue? None of the reviews I saw mentioned this, and most of the comparisons didn't show this. Maybe they were using RAW format.
