What is Infinity Display
Infinity display or Bezel less display is merely a marketing term that coined by Samsung in 2017. The company released this display first time in Galaxy S8 and S8 plus smartphones. Now the company is using it successfully in their upcoming flagship mobile phones like S9 and S9+.
It has an extremely high screen-to-body ratio, which means the bezels are almost non-existent on the phone, making it feel like you’re holding a continuous, single display in hand. It provides for a more immersive experience since the bezels are not there to distract the user.
Apple launched it in iPhone X.
LG launched it in G6 and Q6 series phones with a different name i.e. full vision wide-angle display, having aspect ratio 18:9. [Check LG Q6 Review here]
So if we talk about infinity edge display, then it is not a technology. It is just a marketing term that first time coined by Samsung. Now many smartphone or laptop makers are using this marketing term only to attract users.
