The Dynamic Island has to be one my favorite software-related surprises in a while.

In hindsight, it explains so much of Apple’s recent design decisions on iOS: pill-shaped alerts, Live Activities, compact UI. They’ve been playing the long game. I love this. #AppleEvent pic.twitter.com/IGErzZBKq1

Surprisingly, this is one of the parts that I love about the iPhone 14 Pro series.

Dynamic Island is not exactly the best solution to replace that notch, but it is one step ahead of older iPhones.

And the implementation is excellent.
