>Couldn’t they ditch the notch by having the speaker on the edge of the device? I have no problem hearing the speaker with my phone pulled away from my ear.

That triggered my PTSD from watching the Nokia N-Gage ads. That was cringey.

The N-Gage was my first 'smart' phone. Back then, just like now, I did not use phones so much to call people so the 'taco to your ear' pose did not bother me. I'm no gamer either, I just got the N-Gage because it was the cheapest freely programmable phone at the time. It also had good sound and doubled as a media player. In reality it was quite a usable device, all that was really missing was WiFi.
I sold my razer to get the N-Gage and I loved it. I am a gamer and loved the games available to it.
