DisplayMate: Samsung Galaxy S9 Beats iPhone X With 'Best Performing Smartphone Display'

[john123]

Um... you do realize you have totally obscured the fact the S9 has huge a$$ top and bottom chins that you hide in your pic? seriously.. why the focus on a mm of bezel when you have so much of the top and bottom chopped off screen wise?

Um... you do realize you have responded to a post made over 6 months ago?

Also it’s a matter of personal preference. I for one prefer clean lines. Not enough to change OS, mind you, but I do prefer Samsung’s design.

So if my reply is somehow dated and not relevant to this day’s designs (which visually have not changed) why are you replying? I prefer maximum screen size with no chin.

I didn’t say it wasn’t relevant. I simply find it amusing.

Next time you buy something, let me know. I’ll come over with my Dremel and cut a chunk out of the middle of it. Just think of how woot you’ll be. No chins!

Wish I could say the same.

As for the Dremel... sure as long as next time you buy something I paint big black bands across it and say “dig those clean lines”

My point on the original post was it was misleading at best, disingenuous at worst and you join in

You seem embarrassed about replying to a 6 month post and then being called on it. It’s ok. We all make mistakes.

I agree to your proposal. I like bands. Here in the real world we call it “trim.” It’s on everything from cars to appliances to cabinets. It’s aetherically pleasing, sometimes serves a purpose, and has been part of design for hundreds and hundreds of years. Even as I type this on my phone, I see a band of plain pixels around the whole screen. Below the bottom row of keys on the keyboard? Check. Above the menu bar at the top? Check. What a waste, m i rite?

Embarrassed? Not at all... thank you. I am impressed with your ability to twist. Trim is one thing, Chin is another, blah blah, I dont think this discussion has anywhere to go. It is an old debate, in that I agree.
