Modern Smartphone World is heading towards full-screen concept where even the budget phones are giving a full screen to body ratio. Nevertheless, Nokia 7.2 gives pain to us with the big bottom bezel. In the market where even the cheaper devices come with full-screen display, Nokia 7.2 doesn’t match our expectations.
