The bezel will be a celeb death this year

Living on the edge

This year we will see the end of the bezel, or at least phones with very slim ones.

It was a prediction we thought about last year but now the year is upon us we are starting to see rumoured phones that are close to the edge.

Xiaomi seemed to be the ground breaker for this new trend delivering the Mi Mix in 2016 and now everyone is following.

Why do we care? Smaller bezels make the screens just look cooler and more futuristic. They look less like an early iPhone which is more of a plus. You also get a bigger screen which you can use with one hand which means your left is free to smash your workmates iPhone if they are stupid enough to leave it on the desk.
