Lenovo Z5 sketch suggests that it could be the world's first fully bezel-less smartphone

Lenovo is reportedly working on a fully bezel-less smartphone to break away from the new trend of shipping smartphones with a notch. It will be called the Z5.

It was Lenovo’s Vice President Chang Cheng who took to Chinese social media website Weibo to share a concept sketch of a phone with no bezels. According to Cheng, Lenovo has made four major technological breakthroughs and patented as many as 18 technologies to come up with the Lenovo Z5. He did not mention anything much but this sketch also arrives a day after Cheng posted another teaser of the phone, revealing a portion of the phone, which hinted that the company could settle for a notch. The new sketch confirms that it will be a fully bezel-less smartphone, however. [caption id=“attachment_4467001” align=“alignnone” width=“970”] Teaser shared by Chang Cheng on the Lenovo Z5.

According to a report by GSMArena, Cheng will be making an official announcement about the Lenovo Z5 on 14 June, which is when we can expect to have more answers after the smartphone.
