 2017 is the year of edge-to-edge display as we see manufacturers from Xiaomi to Samsung embracing the new aspect ratio of 18:9. With narrower bezels, not only are elements home button and navigation buttons removed, but such displays also take a user’s viewing and engaging experience a notch higher. If you are a fan of bigger displays with thinner bezels, here is our list of top smartphones which boast the newer display design, and are priced under Rs 40,000.

OnePlus 5T
