07 November 2017
Androids have been preaching "bezels = bad" for years now, did Apple finally catch up?

Again and again people confusing bezelless SCREEN and bezelless CASE. If you measuring cases... I have bad news for you - you something missed in your education.

    Mysterious, bezels-less in the dark
    Third version: Apple new in place
    Second v: Samsung was in place but isn't long time
    First version: Legendary Sharp's crystal/aquos series
    I like that, that kind of Sharp in bezels-less! That's all

              So the LG v30 has the thinnest bezel of all. and the thinnest camera fitted bezel. (it's top bezel in x and bottom bezel in mix that houses the camera).

                  With iPhone X Apple won the smartphone war, that phone is very close to perfection, it have great potential to become best selling smartphone ever.

                  When you see the phone in real life the design is so good, photos or videos doesn't make justice for the design and all the small details and materials.

                    Funny thing is pixel 2 xl is bezeless at 76% STB while Xperia Xa1 ultra having gigantic bezels at 76% STB... Review sites though, they do more marketting than the OEMs. Their hypes and brainwashing goes a long way. BTW how can Iphone X win the bezeless war at 83% STB while the S8+ is at 84% STB? Little shame there GSMA... Tailored reviews all the way.

                    Ps. Essential PH1 is at 85% STB, so how is iphone x getting this hype FGS?
                    Don't forget, XA1 ultra is bezeless too.

They couldn't put a FPS under the screen, and decided to go with just Face ID. It's a DEALBREAKER with capital letters. They f...ked it up even more than Sammy with their ill-placed FPS. But at least S. has an FPS.

                          Fusion, 07 Nov 2017My iPhone X makes people turn green with envy and jealousy..You really have to admit, that the ugliest phones in the world are now the iphone 1 to 8, and the second ugliest is i10. There's no other way. It's not a matter of taste. It's just a plain and simple fact.
                          Buyers of 10 will all have to deal with a never-before-seen phenomenon: you get the most expensive phone in the world, and it's also the (2nd) ugliest one. That will cause a complete COGNITIVE DISSONANCE in millions of people.
                          People will be laughing at you, and you won't know why, but you will suspect.

                          Apple robs you. Robs you of the feeling of coolness, robs you of functionalities, robs you of a great design and beauty. Robs you of money.

                          You've obviously never used a great device. Just use a Note for some weeks, and you'll be crying from happiness, you'll be in the clouds all day, you will want to sleep with your precious, perfect diamond! You really just don't know the joys of perfectness, as long as you haven't used a device that is a DELIGHT to look at, yes that's the right word. DELIGHTFUL to use and intoxicating to possess! You will adore it with awe for hours every day!

                          Of course you could also use a number of other devices with much better price/performance than the i10. Use a Huawei, use a HTC, or a Xiaomi!!! You won't regret it! They all have phones that have a much better design as the i10 (let alone the i1-i8s). And they are all capable of all the things u'll be using it with the exact same quality: facebook, email, pics, and making calls.

                          Don't fall prey to Apple, don't be another one of the duped masses.
                          If you bought it, be a man, wake up, aknowledge your ignorance, and sell the device!
                          YOU HAVE OPTIONS!
                          If you want to feel cool, you can have that!
                          If you want a beautiful device, you can have it!
                          If you want full functionality, you can have that as well!

                          You don't have to bow to mediocrity! EDUCATE yourself, and take action!

                              The side bezels could be thinner but Apple wants the phone to match iPhone 8 in size

                                You need some small bezels like the LG V30. Otherwise you may touch the screen accidently.
