The iPhone X might not have the highest screen-to-body ratio

The iPhone X might have an edge-to-edge Super Retina display, but it is unlikely to have the highest screen-to-body ratio of any phone in the industry as claimed by KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo. 

GSMArena took the time and effort to do the calculations and compared the iPhone X against two recently announced bezel-lesss phones, the LG V30 and Xiaomi Mi Mix 2. We also obtained the screen-to-body ratios of the Samsung Galaxy S8, S8+ and Galaxy Note8 from Forbes.

Device Screen-to-body ratio
Apple iPhone X 81.49%
LG V30 83.24%
Xiaomi Mi Mix 2  82.63%
Samsung Galaxy S8 83.60%
Samsung Galaxy S8+ 84.00%
Samsung Galaxy Note8 83.20%

Assuming the numbers calculated by these publications are accurate, the iPhone X actually has the lowest screen-to-body ratio among the phones compared. The 6.2-inch Galaxy S8+ currently has the highest screen-to-body ratio of 84%.

But does this even matter? Let us know in the comments below.
