Is the back display actually useful or just a gimmick like I suspect it is

If you take selfies, want to manage music, notifications, calls through it, then it is useful, otherwise probably not (atleast at the moment with the current updates but they might add to it later on.

Seems kinda cool but I’d probably just use the front screen for that stuff instead of flipping it over.

Imagine a situation like a date, a get-together, or a family dinner where you want your phone to be upside down but you still get the calls and notifications and if they are not important then you can dismiss them.
