      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

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

        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.

    Honestly speaking, I don’t want a thinner phone with a thinner bezel. My current Note 10 is unusable without a case, because it’s like a stick of butter. It is so incredibly difficult to hold, and the curved display really is not helping it at all

    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

    I think small bezels are really annoying. When you put a case that has a lip around the edges it’s really problematic when you need to tap something on the edges of the screen. Plus I keep accidentally touching screen when holding the phone.

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

    Lol I remember the release of the iPhone X where the world was amazed by the thinness of the bezels. Those were still thicker than the bezels on the Galaxy S8.

      yeah, but the s8,s9 had thick top and bottom bezels instead of the notch+uniformly thin bezels on the iphone

    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.

    I’m on a Galaxy S7’edge’ that I really need to migrate away from. I don’t want the foldable, and I’m not into iphones. How good/bad is the Galaxy S24 in this situation?
