CUPERTINO, Calif.—Apple's new flagship phones have been revealed and critics of the iPhone's design since 2017 will be happy to see that the company has taken a new approach to the camera and sensor notch at the top of the screen.

Instead of a notch descending from the top of the display, there's now what will appear to users as a pill-shaped cutout several pixels below the bottom to house the selfie camera, 3D sensor, and more. It takes up less of the screen overall by default, but it can dynamically resize itself to show different status indicators and other UI elements, blurring the line between the cutout and the rest of the screen.
