The benefit of a larger screen from these last millimeters is non-existent.

I might not be explaining it as well as I want to

Thank you oh mighty one, you opened my eyes. Now I know that bezels are about appearance and my understanding that bezeled phones are bricks is all psychological.
Heck the understanding that I need new pants if I buy those bezeled phones is psychological too, my pockets should finally *learn* that bezels are about psychology and that they do not take any actual physical dimension.
Thank you for clearing that up.

For me it means performance. It means that the device has as much innovative, latest features inside as possible within reasonable limits (20" display would be too much forinstance) less bezels simply make the phone harder to hold while watching something. Its too easy to touch solething accidentally. Flagship does not mean pretty or less bezels. It has no practical value, only usable for posing or status push for wannabes. The real value in a flagship device is how much it enchances yiu as android. And bezels dont do that, instead, they make you just look maybe a bit more retarded.

Ugh, another large rounded edge-to-edge corner that bigger than the UI's status bar. Also, white front body color that would contrasts the black space when playing standardized 16:9 ratio video. This is why i hate nowadays trendy remote-mimic screen ratio.

I have only once dropped my phone and it was something Sony Ericsson and it broke the screen so as it had something 1-2 inch screen it had no protection for the screen anyways. It's all about how lucky your drop will be

I use the 4G connection cause the FM Radio is pausing sound time to time and it's annoying. I dont know whats the problem with it but well who cares i have 15GB of internet to use per month and it's more then enough what i need.

The Meizu E3 and Pro 6 Plus are good options at mid range now but with the lack of LTE B20 band. Their actual phones for the Global market aren't as good. At least for me, all of them lacks some LTE band here, some features demanded here, etc. Curiously the M6 Note was one of the best affordable phones with a good camera for its price available globally, although without FM Radio, something common at affordable phones, but now it's dated.
Aside, they are still stuck in Nougat and once they change to Oreo, probably like now, spend years stagnant with that version.

indoean, 16 Jul 2018not sure which part of the world you come from codeplayer, ... moreI remember that people gave so much vitriol to Sony over bezels not too long ago. We just look at threads about past Sony devices (especially threads on the Z series, sheesh).

If meizu could make a smartphone with ip67 at least, that would be great
