Japanese consumer technology company Sharp has gone ahead and unveiled an innovative new smartphone concept that is truly riveting and unique in that it is completely free of a bezel. Dubbed 'Corner R', this particular concept phone was exhibited to a stunned audience at the CEATECH 2016 exhibition currently ongoing in Japan.
While the Sharp Corner R isn't the company's first bezel-free device, what makes it such an eye-catching device is the fact that its design also includes a curved display and rounded edges that give the phone a wonderfully curvaceous look and feel. Elsewhere, the device promises Full HD resolution, which is a handy bonus given that the display covers nearly 90 percent of the screen itself.
This smartphone concept looks forward to a future where displays take up larger proportions of devices, giving phone users more screen real estate and more overall value.
