The FaceTime camera on a MacBook Pro is famously not as good as one on an iPhone, but new research shows Apple is working on it — and may have decided that the answer involves mounting larger cameras on a rotating display.

Maybe you don’t give the camera notch on the MacBook Pro a second thought. But even if you loathe it, and believe it’s taking up screen real estate, the one thing you can’t say is that it is thick.
It’s quite wide, wide enough that you wonder why it doesn’t include Face ID yet. But it doesn’t add to the thickness of the MacBook Pro lid, and maybe it’s this thickness that limits how good a camera system Apple can fit in there.
