According to All About Samsung, the upcoming Samsung flagship will have tiny bezels, front-facing cameras that poke through the display, a USB-C port and a headphone jack.
A three-judge panel ruled that Samsung copied specific aspects of the iPhone, including the GUI, the bezel and front of the phone along with several key software elements, such as gesturing, bounce-back scrolling and double-tap to zoom.
Google's chiseled away at the bezels up front, as well, helped along by the subtle curvature of the front glass on the left and right side.
LG is said to be prepping an AMOLED screen for its next flagship, Huawei's CEO confirmed its upcoming Mate 10 will have a full-screen display, and there's the 10 year edition iPhone, which looks like it will pack a lot of new features, including infra-red face unlock and an (apparent) bezel-less front screen.
There will reportedly be both a standard Pixel and an XL version, just like there were last year, with thinner bezels up front surrounding a screen with a narrower 2 1 aspect ratio, like the one found on the new Samsung Galaxy S8 and the LG G6.
This means boxier corners and a back cover coloured to match the front bezel.
But the raised bezel on the front is too low, leaving the phone's screen exposed.
Subsequent models (there have been two) have followed the same pleasing shape – sloping edges on the back, wide black or white bezel on the front.
Pros: Good 64-bit PC specification; TV and Blu-ray; lots of ports; Surface Globe software Cons: Price; five stickers on front bezel; styling may not appeal to everyone.
Unbox Therapy has a hands-on video with what it claims is the "space grey" version of the iPad 5, featuring a black front bezel.
