Like some "fans" say the government saves the country's economy, but in reality, their citizens don't feel so. It end up with fans playing trends and fooling the real user.

            Everyone forgot about one thing. Most people are primitive so they record videos in vertical orientation. 18:9 screen means even more narrow, thus even more annoying videos will be everywhere on the internet.

              You're delusional bro. It's pointless to deny the facts and reaffirm yourself because you wasted your money on Note 8. Accidental touch happens more often, especially if you play games and you grip along the phone edges. Also happens when you mapped the volume buttons and try to use them while gaming. Or when you try to use the phone one hand.

All newer Samsung phones are worse.

                  I've owned the note7 for a month before i had to return it. No accidental touches there. I own a month and a half old note8 now. Woopee dee, still no accidental touches. The edges on the note8 are the same as those on the s8 and s8+.

                                So.
                                Why not phone \manufacturers bring phone with 16:9 aspect ratio and reduce the bezels of the phone on all 4 sides.
                                If you add the number of people polled for 16:9 aspect and also for " i care for thin bezels", then it comes to this majority of 2/3rd of the people polled.

                                i hope year 2018 will be the trend for this.

                                      18:9 is just stupid! :/
                                      for some one like me who have habit of reading on phone a 1:1 is prefect and after that 3:2/4:3 is best and after that will be 16:9(which in my opinion is best for media) and why the hell companies are going for 18:9/2:1?
