Let’s hear what the AC forum community has to say.
Over the last couple of years, it seems like every OEM has been on a quest to get rid of phone bezels for good. From notches, hole punches, and even motorized pop-up cameras, we’ve seen a ton of innovation in this space to make displays on phones as big and bezel-free as possible.
As exciting as this has been to watch, it does raise a question — does anyone actually miss the bezels of old?
This is something some of our AC forums members recently started talking about, and this is what they had to say.

Still I feel people are justified in saying Pixel phones don’t have that wow factor when…

The future is no bezels. It’s the way it is. All screen with cameras hidden under them just like finger prints are under right now. It’s where the advancement in technology is going. Has nothing to do with breaking and more sale. Put a case on the phone and it won’t matter if it had a bezel or not.
Things evolve. It is just how the world turns. Phones not going to have bezels for long. Google…
