Some of the most important phones Android released in the first part of this year were released with cutouts in the screen, because of the copy iPhone X seems to be the theme of this year in the smartphone world. Although Huawei, LG, Vivo, OnePlus and others will offer Android phones with a cutout in the screen, the vast majority of them seem to be ashamed of this design element.
You have probably already seen that for many of the Android phones with cutouts in the screen there are also options to display the interface so that the cutout no longer becomes visible on the front panel. The Android producers thought that this way the users will no longer be ashamed of the stupid cut on the upper part of the screen, although they all present it as a real achievement.
Android phones have cutouts, but manufacturers are ashamed of them
Apple implemented the cutout in the iPhone X screen with the pride with which it made other stupid changes in the past, avoiding to offer functions that would allow it to be hidden in the iOS interface. Android manufacturers are not so proud of Apple's achievements, so even though they copied the screen cutout and boasted that it is smaller, they are still ashamed of it.
To be completely honest, I don't really understand why the manufacturers of Android phones cut the screens of the phones if they are still ashamed of their existence and offer functions to hide them. I don't know how many of the users of these phones have actually used this functionality, but it's funny to see that such a big design change comes with a function that allows it to be hidden.
