AnonD-690382, 08 Aug 2017Why do you say it's from 2013?The front is exactly like a Nexus 6P and those bezels are too big for a modern smartphone.

1. Dear GSM Arena: Not all stereo speakers are created equal. Some manufacturers signal firing loudspeaker's are louder and clearer than other's dual speaker system's and vice versa.
Presently, type C earphones can be purchased online, albeit low grade. Soon enough however, companies great and small will begin selling all sorts of type C headphones, earphones, etc (e.g. volume control accessories). at any number of price ranges. It's inevitable.
Personally, I have owned expensive wired headphones and earphones, as well as others that were not pricey. I am not one with a soft touch. Almost all corded listening devices I have owned broke sooner or later. I have owned a pair of Bluetooth headphone's that were middle of pack price wise. They were surprisingly decent. Never broke. Eventually, the rechargeable battery died out. I happen to like all of the above.
My one complaint with type C corded earphone/headphones (despite the fact that I had a hard time avoiding being rough on them), is that they have to be plugged into the bottom of devices... and I like models which you plug in items at the top of the unit.
2. To the group at large: I am seriously considering getting a new handset in the next 6-9 months. Believe it or not, your comments here have in fact helped me rethink my priorities (and to think this article is primarily about a screen shot or two of the Pixel 2 :-] ) Some say bezels are ugly. Some say they protect from display damage. Some say that bezels hurt speaker quality. Here is another factor to consider: small or bezel free units very well become a higher target for theft ( if they aren't already) because they are newer and can be costly.
Like much in life, these issues have both strengths and weaknesses. And to think, I was going to get a practically bezel free unit because they are "trending". Thanks everyone ^.^ .

Having bezel on the sides makes spurious touches caused by base of thumb touching screen less frequent (I've not yet found a device that reduces those touches to the point where it isn't an annoyance).
Phones don't have to be ergonomic but they should be, and we have metrics for this.

AnonD-510275, 07 Aug 2017People are st*pid these day. I have to say this again and again... bezel less isn't ergonomic.... moreWhat's the point of having bezels if they aren't really there for anything? We know Google can have a moreso bezel less Pixel if the XL rumors are true, so these bezels on the smaller are just a waste of space and don't look good at all. A phone in general isn't ergonomic, so when you weigh the positives of bezel less to negatives of bezel less, no one really cares about the negatives. A larger screen just helps for people that actually use their phones, too.
Google's making it really hard for me to want this phone, tho.
