In it quest to make a more appealing device Panasonic has gone after Xiaomi to launch a cheaper Mi Mix lookalike called Eluga C. The phone has three side bezel-less design with a large bottom bezel, this accommodates a physical home key embedded with a fingerprint sensor on top.
A thin mesh opening at the top abode the earpiece but the top bezel is too thin for another hardware to fit in, so the front camera (8MP) and the common sensors (proximity and ambient light) has been moved to the all-welcoming bezel below the screen at the bottom right, just exactly as found on first and second generation Xiaomi’s Mi Mix. This new design element substantially increase the screen-to-body ratio to an astounding 84.6%, something Panasonic has never been able to achieve until now.
