Strong disagree. Lots of phone manufacturers tuck their cameras into the corner like this. It means the phone wobbles on a desk and truly provides no camera alignment benefits that couldnt be addressed by a lateral bar. They shouldnt copy the pixel because it would demonstrate google has the right design, which I personally like. Also, woth the camera bar that close to the phone edge, you couldnt hold and shoot in landscape though.

I actually like the blacked-out bar across the top shown in the render much better than the insectoid lens square the iPhones use now. Even if it's not blacked out and you can see the individual lenses I think it would look better and more symmetrical than the existing design.

And who cares (except maybe tech journalists) what phone you are carrying if they see you using it? It may be a bit a geek cred, but that's about it.
