The Huawei Y7p features thin bezels on all three sides except the bottom which features a noticeable chin, this gives a 90% screen to body ratio to the device. A perfect Punch FullView Display comes with a perfect Punch hole. Otherwise, its appearance would be affected. To end that, Huawei has been working with smartphone camera providers to produce one of the smallest front cameras in the industry.
