The front panel has a curved display, and it’s surrounded by a thin bezel, while there’s a centered hole for the front camera sensor. Under the panel is an optical fingerprint reader. At the frame is the volume rocker and power button, and as expected, there’s no 3.5mm headphone jack. The USB-C port sits close to the speaker grill at the button, with the second speaker is close to the IR Blaster. The device is available in Gray, Blue, Purple, and Green.
