Is thin bezels a thing that anyone, outside handset reviewers, actually care about?

[–] holycrap@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

The people tasked with making them smaller care. To the extent that it impacts their paycheck anyway.

If it makes the phone smaller like it did with the iPhone then I’m all for it.

When has a new model iphone been smaller than the previous one? SE models are not what I am talking about.

They didn't make the phone smaller, they made the screen larger.

I've got to ask, who the fuck cares? How is this even news?

Nice. But I'd rather have an SD card slot, headphone jack, and a bigger, removable battery. Seriously, I don't give a fuck otherwise.

Cool more electronic garbage to break easier than the last over priced electronic garbage. Samsung need to focus on making responsible long lasting repairable upgradable devices especially not cheap garbage designed to break as soon as possible

Doesn't impress me much. My bezels have been slim enough at least since note 9.
