You do understand that larger sensor means not only thicker package but also larger width?

Would you like 1cm black border around your display like it’s a pc from 2010?

Short answer: all this would make an ugly laptop.

That’s why they created belkin magsafe iphone camera mount

an iphone is not 1cm thick and I absolutely would not mind a buldge on the top of the screen, it doesnt change how the laptop would sit. and i think the iphone whith their protrudeing camera so that they wobble when placed screen up is more of a design crime. like some chair or table outside a cafe that wobbels, Steve is dead clearly in design
iPhone is not only 1cm thick, it’s actually more: 1.275cm to be precise with the bump.

Also camera hole has a diameter of 1.6cm.
