Do you prefer cornered or centered rear cameras? (poll)

Some smartphones have cornered rear cameras, some have centered rear cameras.

History​

While iPhones always had cornered rear cameras, Samsung implemented centered rear cameras for around a decade (2011 - 2019). With the Note 10, released in late 2019, they switched back to cornered rear cameras.

HTC and LG (no longer producing phones) only had centered rear cameras. Sony switched inbetween. While the Xperia S, P, and V had a centered rear camera, the Z series had a cornered rear camera for many years.

My preference​

I clearly prefer cornered cameras. Since the lenses are at a higher position while holding the phone horizontally, there is more space to place the fingers of the left hand without covering the lenses, so a corner camera smartphone can be held more comfortably.

Corner cameras are also better for macro shots since you can get closer to the ground by holding the phone horizontally upside down.

Now I'd be curious to hear your opinion.

On the other hand, centered rear cameras typically offer a more straightforward and consistent view of the area directly behind the vehicle, which can be beneficial for aligning with parking lines and improving overall safety.
