Ulefone’s been talking about the Future for a while. The company is naturally kicked about getting this phone on the market thanks to it having near-zero bezel.
Ulefone is using that fact to promote the phone as a ‘bezel-less’ one. While we’ve hardly had a chance to see the phone in its full glory in the past, we can thankfully gawk at these pictures of the Future that Andi took today at MWC.

Ulefone Future: How bezel-less?
While most such claims in the past have been a sham, Ulefone seem to have actually put some engineering in to making the Future as bezel-less as possible.
Gizchina News of the week
A little narrow black line on the edges can be noticed, but that doesn’t seem like too bad a start for 2016.
We should probably expect some more bezel-less phones — perhaps from larger brands — later this year. As for the Ulefone Future, it should hit the market very soon. It isn’t just the bezels (or the lack of them) that the Future is interesting for; the phone is also one of the first ‘export brand’ Chinese devices to have a fingerprint sensor on the edge.
nice, can you guys get an info on the BQ aquaris x5 plus, the snap dragon 652 pop architechture integrating the RAM.. are all 652s like this? would like to see it
yup
Seems that you don’t really know what PoP is. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Package_on_package
it’s something that everybody has been doing for ages and the RAM is not integrated.
A newer solution that we might see soon at some key SoC players is fan-out wafer level packaging (FOWLP). Apple is assumed to be using TSMC’s InFO (their branding for FOWLP) in the next iphone,likely just the RAM on top of the SoC.

It’s a budget solution to what AMD and soon Nvidia are doing in high end GPUs with interposers and TSV.

hey i was just reading what BQ said about the chipset “dual channel pop” to be exact
http://www.bq.com/es/aquaris-x5-plus (use google to translate the page)
As i said everybody has been using PoP for a long time- more or less 10 years now. it really isn’t anything worth mentioning.
oh i am ignorant to specifics of chips, well i guess ill put this down as another lesson for the day 🙂 maybe i should venture into learning about chips deeply next, gsmarena,gizchina,youtube doesnt feed me enough phone info need to make the next step to feed my lust
