Thin bezels are available everywhere (Chinese brands). Sony has awesome technology and samsung is going ga ga over bezels. Wow samsung i appreciate your courage. Going for XZP that has classy design. S8 looks ugly and cheap, you cheated me samsung, XZP is my next after S5,S6 and S7.

                      The only thing that can be seen is same on this page as any other sony page.
                      You and every other sony fan go out of their way to say sony is the almighty superior in every way to every other device and nothing else is worthy. And don't you dare mention an other device or admit a factual fault of sony. That would be the end of the world. In some ways it's worse than apple pages

No other brands copy sony design because it is as ugly as f***. Sometimes the ugliest stand out of the crowd. Also, Iphone is much better to hold in hand.

It feels unique and distinctive in the hand because all other phones is built almost exactly the same as an iPhone. That's why Sony is the only handset that can actually stand out of the crowd.
