36、n features like waterproofing, the headphone jack and more, as he compares to Samsung models that do have these features ahead of the iPhone. Apples iPhone X notch(V 型切口) has been widely criticized by tech experts, who have called the design “odd” and “ridiculous.” The reason for the peculiar design
