Tecno's New Concept May Be The First Truly Bezel

Chinese smartphone manufacturer Tecno is set to showcase a new concept device at IFA 2026 that features a zero-millimeter bezel display. The company claims this design, achieved through advanced internal stacking, will provide a more immersive viewing experience.
Why it matters
This development represents a potential shift in smartphone design language as manufacturers compete to maximize screen-to-body ratios in a saturated market.
It's not the first company to claim it killed the smartphone bezel.
Tecno Tecno, a Chinese phone maker that adores a concept project or two, is bringing its latest tech showcase to IFA 2026. This time around, it's not a super-thin modular smartphone , or a pop-out portrait lens.
Instead, it's resurrecting the race towards a bezel-less smartphone display. It claims its new concept features an "industry-first" zero-millimeter border. As the company notes, ultra-narrow bezels have become standard on flagship phones, with the latest devices from Apple and Samsung typically circling 90 percent screen coverage, while phones from Xiaomi and Honor reach 95 percent with hidden cameras and razor-thin edges.
