It looks lovely. I'd still prefer no selfie cam over a hole in display though.

the chin is an eyesore, I don't mind having the sides and top as thick as the bottom. so it has universal bezels all around.

Pakalini, 22 Nov 2018still has a chin, try harder.I want a bottom and a top chin. Preferably with any buttons or fingerprint-scanners on. So I can hold that damn thing properly in landscape (taking pics and playing games) without accidentally pressing something!
In fact the only design that I really enjoyed is/was the Honor 8. Which is IMHO the only well executed model of Android phone. It had almost everything and on the right place.

Walter C. Dornez, 21 Nov 2018Yeah I know what you saying. I actually saw something on a ... moreWhich causes even more burn-in, great.
No I want a normal top and bottom chin, so that I can hold this bloody thing without accidentally pressing some crap. Especially when playing games and/or taking photo's. With a normal RGB-colour LED. In fact make it a thick clearly visible one like on the galaxy S5!
At the very least I'd settle for a tiny one like on e.g. honor 8, which sits near or under the earpiece grill but is luckily still well lit.
And IF you really need a substitute then why not something like the gorgeous Nokia's Sleeping Screen? In fact why hasn't there been ANYBODY who ported that one to Android? There I was thinking Android devs were so smart, tsssk tsssk tsssk!

in term of actual monitors( which are in rectangular shape) that cut out is equal to dead pixel cause you have space in display but getting nothing!
