Mobile devices boasting of the slimmest bezels are often referring only to the left and right sides of the screen. The upper bezel can usually also be shrunk to a similar thinness but most manufacturers use one side bezel for cramming in all the requisite supporting circuitry, to keep the screen as thin as possible. Furthermore, on a smartphone, it is desirable to have some upper and lower front bezel space for speakers, microphones, cameras, and various sensors.
Japan Display Inc. (JDI) has just announced a new type of display which it dubs a 'Full Active Display'. This new display has slim bezels to all four sides of the screen. The first JDI product using its new Full Active Display technology is a 5.5-inch Full-HD LCD display for smartphones.
