> I doubt they'd mind a camera bulge sticking out the back of their laptop.

A bulge at the back of the laptop would be way more problematic e.g. way more likely to catch on bags, or otherwise be damaged.

What I doubt most people would mind is the screen side being slightly thicker.



Or have a bulge on the front side of the screen and a corresponding mound on the keyboard side. While it conflicts with the touchpad, it could still be a worthwhile tradeoff.


Yes I agree with that. They'd have to scale back the trackpad a bit but frankly… the latest generations are just way too big.


Have two cams on the edges instead to avoid this and calculate an average image. (Or even use it for stereoscopy)
