My current phone has thin bezels, i pick it up and touch the yt video playing and it skips to the next video all the time. I have to turn the phone off so if I move my phone I dont interrupt the current video.

I'd rather have a more functional phone than thin pretty bezels. I also buy phones with sdcards and headphone amps/jacks.

Bezel-less design is such a dumb status symbol, up there with glass backs and other UX fails for pointless aesthetics.
It's important to nail the tech if they want to be ready for the next evolution of smartphones (AR glasses)

Bezel-less is very nice, but you have to build the proper software to take advantage, Android is just plain and simple bad, Tizen is even worse

This backward step + employees being mad reminds me of the Exynos drama (killed on purpose to promote Qualcomm -- anti competitive market in the US)
