iPad Pro is the best designed Apple device since the iPhone 5/5s. The X/Xs would be there if it had a full top bezel instead of a notch, or even a hole punch since the Galaxy S10e is essentially a notch less Xs.
I agree that the hole punch is an improvement in terms of design, but bear in mind that the Galaxy range doesn't have Face ID, which means they don't really need the same amount of space as the notch provides.
From the reviews I've seen, the new in-screen fingerprint reader is slow and unreliable, and the "face unlock" is easily fooled.
