Yeah on the topic of phones I'm less concerned about the bezel being thin. I'm pretty whatever about it. So long as they don't wrap the display around the edge like some Androids, I don't really care.

But I use the iPad Pro as a drawing device and when you draw on a piece of paper, it's pretty impractical to draw to the edge. Same is true with a digital device. You need a bit of margin and in this case that's the bezel. Having an edge to edge display for an iPad isn't doing people any favors. It's just some dumb bullet point for a keynote. I didn't buy a 12.9 iPad for the small footprint. I'd buy a bigger one if they made it.

I really do think the bezels on the current models is about as slim as is practical in terms of using these things to draw.
