Haters everywhere, 16 Aug 201780% comment is mentioning about the bezel.. seriously ? you... moreHaters gonna hate u know. The bezels of the smartphone make the smartphone look much more tougher, more stronger. Yes now current smartphones are getting lesser bezels, but they don't have to crave that much on the bezels am I right? The lesser the bezels the lesser protection it will have from drops and falls. It is their choice, I kind of like the bezeless ones but with some bezel like the XPERIA XZ PREMIUM makes it look stong and buffed up

Would have been better if they implemented a better design. The 'better' means a fresh new look but a more practical one. Like how LG did with the G6. Beautiful but still a tank. A better camera software, a larger battery, louder front facing stereo speakers, and 6/8 GB and 128/256 GB options would have been also very much appreciated. Sony is always my first choice, but they have to do better than this.

Even Nokia has now turned their heads and copy Samsung style Home Button/Fingerprint Scanner.
For LG, it will get there soon. Look at the LG X Active.

80% comment is mentioning about the bezel.. seriously ? you know you can't have best of both world. if you want small bezel, then u lose in screen toughness, stereo speaker, good front facing camera, dram on primary camera, 960 fps, and comes with camera bump on the back. Sony is trying to hide the camera bump thats why they need the bezel to hide it. Plus their camera has embedded ram to process the 960fps video capturing, which takes up more space. Stereo speaker to provide excellent sound experience. If you just want small bezel, choose from the market which offer you small bezel. maybe people are s***ing on your favorite phone and you feel the need to go other phone section to s*** on other phone ?

So the longer cutout for the flash and sensors are just to have NFC on it.
Interesting, though I prefer the logo and main sensor at the middle top of the back, but it can easily be get away.
As for the bezels, it's the thing you notice in pictures but not in real life. Small bezels are for aesthetic purposes, bezels are for practicality purposes - Sony does the latter, so complain about large bezels when your S8 will finally be able to survive a waist height drop test on its screen.
If large bezels aren't your thing, then so be it - look for others instead of blabbering, and not make it a reason to hate such a simple thing. It's just like hating McDonalds just because other fastfood chains offer better foods for your PREFERENCE - yes, "PREFERENCE".
P-R-E-F-E-R-E-N-C-E there I spelled it already to be clear.

AnonD-27765, 16 Aug 2017Sony always lags behind the competition by at least one yea... moreI would buy this phone and I'm not the only one. Why?
For starters I hate round-cornered phones. I love Sony's minimalistic design.
I do like bezeless design but until gorilla glass 10 is out I'm not buying one.
I've seen so many people with broken displays from just one small fall. So instead of a very very very fragile display I'd rather have stereo speakers and a very sturdy display (plus I use the bezels to hold the phone in landscape mode).
So there you go. U got your answer.

This is the reason why Sony don't put OIS onto their flagship camera.

I am fully understand why they are something Sony can do and why some others can't.
