Knowing apple, there won't be. iPhones don't have this option, but my OnePlus does for the camera hole.

luke2m··on Ask HN: Does anyone else use a 32 bit computer regularly?

Yep, I imagine ARMv7 is still used a lot. I used a ThinkPad T60 with the intel core duo T2300, so from 2006. I had used debian on it, and it now runs openbsd.

luke2m··on Ministry of Freedom – GNU+Linux laptops with Libreboot preinstalled

https://www.cpubenchmark.net/compare/Intel-Core2-Duo-P8400-v...

My $600 laptop's cpu performance is about double that of the x200. I'm not sure about transistor number, but the performance increase is huge. I upgraded from a Thinkpad T410 this year, using a T60 until 2019. I can't go back.
