The phone has a huge 5.99-inch (1440 x 720 pixels) 18:9 FullView 2.5D curved glass display with a screen-to-body ratio of 84.4%. The screen is bright and colors are vibrant, but the pixel density of the phone is just 269 PPI, so it is not sharp compared to a 1080p screen. It also has Corning Gorilla Glass 3 protection. Even though there is a small bezel below the screen, the phone doesn’t have capacitive touch buttons and has on-screen buttons.
