I was just mulling this over as I type this post on a Dell XPS 15 9560.
Samsung just recently announced their latest phone, the Galaxy S8. One of the touted features of this fancy schmancy phone is a nearly bezel-less screen. Dell's XPS line also features a similar engineering feat.
Ideally, we'd like a bezel-less screen to obtain that ever-so-slick design. As far as functionality is concerned, the bezel has done a marvelous job through the ages. What's the obbsession with the removal of the bezel? Is there something deeper about the bezel-less screen? Do we want to escape the feeling of being boxed in? What's life like after bezels? Won't the next bezel-less frontier for the screen be life, the universe, and everything?
