hang him quick

Since its inception, the notch - that black-out area to the top of many flagship phones where the front-facing camera and sensors hide - has been a divisive smartphone design.

Many want an uninterrupted full-screen experience, yet won't forego that selfie camera. And the hole-punch camera is changing all that - most recently on the Samsung Galaxy S20 series which features a central hole-punch camera.

Last year's Galaxy S10+ even featured dual front cameras punched into the display, but that has been superseded.

Over the last couple of years, we've seen brands experimenting with all kinds of solutions. From the Xiaomi Mi Mix 3's and Honor Magic 2's slider phone mechanism - we take a closer look at that here - to Vivo's full dual-screen approach in the NEX Dual Display. All have their merits and downsides.

Then there's the hole-punch camera, as first seen outside of China in the Honor View 20, which wraps the front-facing camera into a small circular area within the screen itself. No big notch, no big distraction? That's the theory.

And now with Honor, Samsung, Motorola and many others with this setup available on the market, what are the good, the bad and the ugly truths about this design?

The upsides

There's no unsightly notch
The most obvious benefit of a hole-punch solution is that it's far smaller than a notch, thus doesn't get in the way of your viewing experience overall.

In the Honor V20 the camera is placed in an area where the default software-derived blackout strip occurs, so for many apps and much of the software experience, it's hidden from view by default.

Full-screen really means full-screen

Many apps can be designated as full-screen - and in the V20 that really does mean full screen. Apps can extend beyond the hole-punch to the outer edge of the display, for full immersion, especially on 6.4-inch screen size.

It puts the camera in a good place - no slider/second screen required

With a slider phone, such as the Honor Magic 2, the camera pops-up by pulling the upper screen portion down. While that sounds great, it means various dust and debris can get into the area where the camera is hidden. With the hole-punch solution that's no such issue.

The downsides

It's a potential distraction

One of the most obvious downsides is how suddenly apparent the hole-punch can be when an app goes full-screen. After all, it's a totally black area, which really shows up on a bright screen. Sometimes that'll see your eyes dart towards it.

It can get in the way of operation

The other potential issue is that the hole-punch area can hide specifics within an app. One example we've found is video adverts that have the close 'x' positioned almost exactly where the front camera is - which makes hitting it to close the ad a little trickier than it could be. It's not a common issue though.

Furthermore not all apps have to run in full-screen mode - in the Honor V20 it's possible to designate per-app whether you want a black-out strip (notch style, we suppose) to contain the app within a given space.

HMD is taking the time to get the Nokia 9.3 PureView right and a lot of effort is going into the camera. We already heard that it will use a 108MP sensor, now sources are claiming that the camera may record 8K video at 30fps, reports Nokia Power User.

This is only if the engineers are happy with the results, of course, so they are reportedly hard at work, trying to finalize the image processing algorithms.

Part of what makes 8K possible in the first place is the Snapdragon 865 chipset, which replaced the S855 that the phone was going to use initially (this phone has been delayed several times already).

As for still photography, the HMD team is focusing mainly on the Pro and Night modes. For Pro mode, they are refining the image processing algorithms and manual controls. Night mode will get the benefit of larger pixels (presumably thanks to binning) and OIS.

ZEISS will also be contributing to the camera with exclusive “ZEISS effects”. The exclusivity bit is important since Sony is about to release a phone in partnership with ZEISS too.

After all these leaks, there’s little in the way of official confirmation that the phone even exists. Juho Sarvikas did tease possible color options and the phone is supposed to come out in August or September, but that’s still months away.

It’s no secret that our bodies change as we age. Muscle mass and strength decline, it takes longer to recover from hard efforts, and our capacity to handle high training volumes can diminish. On top of that, mobility decreases and we become more prone to certain injuries.

When an older athlete stops training, their fitness deteriorates significantly quicker than it did when they were young—and building it back is much harder.

Your training needs don’t change as you get older. You still want to build cardiovascular capacity, strength, and functional mobility.

But the way you approach those goals needs to be tailored to the individual, depending on your current fitness level, injury state, and other lifestyle factors. We asked two experts how your training regimen should evolve as you age.

Increase the Volume

The foundation for any training program—no matter how old you are—is volume. “The training priority is restoring functionality in a safe and graduated manner, particularly for individuals who have been sedentary throughout their life,” says Matt Swift, a CrossFit coach and masters champion who helped develop CrossFit’s specialized Masters Training program, geared toward middle-aged athletes. Matt Owen, a Gym Jones–certified trainer out of St. Louis, echoed that sentiment.

“We need to really build that base of general physical preparedness in order to build other stuff on top of it—strength, power, sport-specific movement,” Owen says. “We’re going to value volume—one to two hours of work every day—over anything else at first. It’s a lot easier to get strong when you’re able to tolerate more work, more time lifting weights, and you’re able to recover faster than if we just pull you in and make you start lifting heavy.”

Think of developing a solid base of fitness like a really good warmup: It’ll keep you safe throughout your training as you work toward more intensive, higher-impact goals.
