Smartphones with the highest screen to body ratio have their own charisma. They look delicate and give a premium look. The race to produce phones with a huge display and the highest body ratio started back in 2018, and we have witnessed tons of models ever since boasting the feature.
However, no manufacturer has still been able to produce a commercial unit with a 100% screen to body ratio, though there are concept devices and a few worth mentioning efforts from one or two phone makers but nothing practical so far for the consumers. Even the latest Galaxy S21 series doesn’t compete with the topper in this area although, Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G gets a maximum screen to body ratio.
Still, we maintain a list of the latest smartphones with the highest screen to body ratio so that those who are passionate about huge displays could find them in one place.
Although you can find a comprehensive list at the bottom of this article, here, we have chosen the top 3 smartphones with the highest screen to body ratio in each category. These phones are the latest in their respective categories.
Huawei Mate 40 Pro/Pro +
Huawei Mate series is once again among those phones which don’t feature Google mobile services (GMS), but this does not make it a strong reason to expel it from our list of smartphones with the highest screen to body ratio. Mate 40 Pro and Pro+ both boast a 6.76 inches huge display that translates into 94.1% screen to body ratio, highest among all the latest flagships so far in 2021. Although like always, there is a more expensive Porsche design in the series that is not different in the display specs.
These phones offer 1344 x 2772 px screen resolution (456 ppi) and an 18.5:9 aspect ratio.
Additionally, the Mate 40 Pro+ sports Kirin 9000 under the hood, 12GB of RAM, and 256GB of internal storage.
Samsung Galaxy A51 5G UW
At mid-range, we find Samsung Galaxy A51 5G UW as the smartphone with the highest screen to body ratio in our list. Although the device launched in the mid of 2020, it still holds the number 1 spot in this category unless another contender overthrows it.
The device is coming with a 6.5 inches Super AMOLED screen of 1080 x 2400p resolution and 405ppi. The screen to body ratio reaches 87.5%, which easily crosses the closest rival Infinix Zero 8 (86.8% ratio). The display is additionally protected by gorilla glass, whereas the rear is just plastic.
This mid-range phone is equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon 765G, 6GB RAM, and 128GB internal storage. There is a quad-camera setup on the rear side with a 48MP sensor leading them all; on the front, it offers a 32MP selfie camera.
Samsung Galaxy A12
Our third category belongs to budget phones, where we have Samsung Galaxy A12 once again on top of everyone. With an 85.8% screen to body ratio, Samsung once again comfortably crushes the immediate rival, which is Motorola Moto G Stylus 2021, in our list.
Unfortunately, the 6.5 inches display offers an HD display (720x1600p) and 264ppi density. There is a Mediatek Helio P35 chipset running the show. There are 3GB, 4GB, and 6GB RAM variants depending upon the region.

Where is Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra with 91.7% ?
Why there is no, Lenovo, here?
Decent information. A five to 7 inch phone is I think enough for me. I wonder if there is a ten inch phone out there. Even if there isn’t one yet , i wonder how we gonna place it in our pockets after all we mostly keep our phones in pockets?
