Kill the notch: The Samsung Galaxy S10 and the LG G8 rumored to be notch-free

[Redaktion]

All those Samsung and LG fans who can't live with an ugly notched display might have a reason to celebrate once the next generation flagships come out. The reason is that these two brands are supposedly ready to use "sound-emitting displays" that eliminate the need for a front-facing earpiece.

Using the front glass to omit sound is nothing new, it has been on devices since as early as 2014 (Sharp Aquos Crystal). The pop-up selfie camera on the Vivo device is impractical, ugly, and begs for issues. You need space for ambient lighting sensor, for proximity sensor, not to mention LED notifications light.

I would drop the front camera and place all sensors on a side. After all, there are a lot of people who never take selfies..

Vivo bragged 98% screen to body here and as anybody could see that's not the case, I don't know if their PE teacher taught them math or something but this is only marginally better than the MIX2S, nothing groundbreaking.
