Poll: *** The official iPhone 14 thread (it can talk to satellites, has AOD and everything!) ***

So for someone looking to upgrade to a 14 or 15 next month is the dynamic island still a gimmick or have they actually given it any use? The extra camera of the pro appeals to me but not sure that alone is worth the price difference.

A gimmick to attempt to hide what it is and it still gets in the way of text and info from apps that haven’t yet taken into account a void in the screen

And it takes up more screen real estate than the notch - a backwards step IMO.

Indeed they should have just had it as a smaller notch rather than wasting pixels above it

I like the dynamic island and find it useful for apps that support it, Music/Podcasts/Time/uber to name a couple.
