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

[-] holycrap@lemm.ee 14 points 11 months ago

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

I happen to like having the edges of my fingers or hand touch the screen inadvertently every time I pick up my phone. Bonus points if it's unlocked and something unintended happens as a result.

As a small phone enjoyer, I do! The thinner the bezels, the better the screen to body ratio is. It also looks better imo

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.

The iPhone 15 is smaller than the 14 series with the same size screen.

Marketers gotta market something, I guess.
