The top notch of the Oppo A3 bears the front camera and the light sensor. This top notch & bottom bezel act as the only perturbation to the attractive bezel-less display. With this bezel-less display stretched to 82.5% screen-to-body ratio, the screen can be touched from the top most portion all the way down to the base. What an ecstasy!
