Rumors are rumors, they may or may not be true, but there are a large number of users who do like to be aware of all the information related to their favorite brand or the next terminal they plan to acquire. While it is true that the rumors surrounding the iPhone 8 are still far from being confirmed, since its launch is scheduled for a year, September 2017, the rumors surrounding the Galaxy S8, are more credible, taking into account that its presentation is expected within the framework of the Mobile World Congress to be held in Barcelona at the end of February next year.
A few days ago we talked about the Mi Mix, the new Xiaomi terminal that offered us, according to the render it presented, a screen that covers almost the entire front of the terminal, but that really is not the case, it already has frames, although very thin , they are not really as Xiaomi had advertised. Samsung for a couple of years, is offering the Edge variant, a terminal with curved glass on both sides, curve that could extend to the upper part of the terminal and thus be able to obtain a screen ratio of 90%.
Currently the average screen ratio in most terminals is close to 80%, but everything seems to indicate that in the coming year this ratio will expand considerably and the Samsung S8 seems to be one of the first terminals to reach the market, actually offering a screen without frames on the sides and on the top of the screen, something that Xiaomi almost achieved with the Mi Mix. This information is extracted from the statements of one of the engineers of the Samsung display division in which claims that the Korean company will launch a terminal with a panel that will maintain a 90% aspect ratio on the front next year.
