It is a simple design choice, some will like it and some won't. Oh shock, there is quite a few people deciding not to buy an Oasis because it is asymmetric left to right instead of up and down. If they say it is ugly, who am I to tell them: But do you own one?
I don't think I'm being defensive. At least, I wasn't meaning to be. I ask because looking at images, yeah the bezels! But when you actually handle the thing, it's quite different. I had the same problem with an old phone I had, the Sharp Aquos. The chin looked enormous when looked at online. But when you actually handle one, it's a different story.
