Galaxy S6 gets rendered in cases based on actual dimensions

Just a couple of hours or so after a leak showed us the alleged schematics of the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S6, now we get some new renders of the device. These are showing it inside cases designed by Verus, a company which claims that the following images are based on the actual size measurements of the highly anticipated smartphone. Samsung Galaxy S6 renders So while the design shown here for the handset may not be a 100% accurate representation of the final product, the dimensions and proportions should be. We also assume the curves are accurately portrayed. More Samsung Galaxy S6 renders Of course, as the phone is in a case in all of these renders it's not easy to form an opinion about its design, or its size.

Inforgraph: Actual Screen Size Vs. Bezel

Considering how Nokia haven’t had the best track record when it comes to properly utilizing screen real estate, here’s an interesting infographic showing how each phone compares in terms of actual display to bezel percentage. The Lumia 1520 does pretty good at 71.2%, only a few percentages bellow the LG G2 which has a full width screen with no side bezel; and I must admit the proper space utilization on the 1520 is great, as it keeps the actual phone size to a minimum (well as minimum as possible when you’re dealing with a 6? screen). The Lumia 1320 also fares quite well with an acceptable 70.25, however after that it gets pretty horrible, with the 920 at 60.4% and the 1020 at 59.8% (thank god the Lumia 800 isn’t up there). Hopefully with WP 8.1 and its on screen buttons we’ll see less and less bezel, and more screen utilization; something I’m sure many of you would appreciate (although I fear the toll on durability of devices would take a hit).
