But now it's oh so impossible to live with a 2 mm bezel and people rather buy phones with defective screens (that's what we we used to call screens with big patches that would always stay black).

Another benefit of the 2 mm bezels, aside from not getting a defective screen from the factory, seems to be an actual front firing stereo speaker setup instead of the garbage "hybrid" that others use (even in "flagships") with the front-firing earpiece and downward-firing speaker.

    Another Android, another big phone, nothing new yet again...

      Tech nerds and amateur photographers wish for larger image sensors and thinner bezels.

      Normal people like the QoL features but can't justify the price for the number of software updates.

      Artists either use or want to use it, often as a key part of a workflow involving real cameras, but an acceptable stand in since it has S-cinetone (and hopefully S-LOG 3 soon.. fingers crossed)

          Anonymous, 11 May 2025You want 8 Elite 3 when 8 Elite 2 is not out yet. Wow !! I can wait for 8e3 released coz we don't need to buy new phone every year. But I don't want to pay high price for a phone that the chip will be outdate in 4 months.

It's just to boost sales... since the Snapdragon 888, phones have enough power to handle 95% of daily tasks... Search YouTube for phones with processors from 5 years ago that outperform devices with the 8 Elite 1 and you'll be amazed.
