Is a camera hole better or worse than a notch?

Lately, we've been seeing a lot of leaks of the supposed Samsung Infinity-O screen — the display that is supposedly going to be on the Galaxy S10. According to patents and leaksters, Samsung will keep making phones that have no cutout notch at the top of the screen. Cool, right?

Well... according to the leaks, the company still insists on reducing its future phones' bezels, though. And that selfie camera needs to go somewhere... And this is what puts the O in Infinity-O. It seems Samsung is going to have a teeny, tiny hole in the top-left of its display, which will house the vital front-facing camera.

Now... a lot of people out there hate “The Notch” — the display cutout that some manufacturers put at the top of the phone in ourder to house a speaker and the front-facing phone sensors. But... is a hole in the screen better than a notch?

Well, it's all up to personal taste. So, let us know — what do you think?
