Business opportunity for people that don’t like the new bezels

[glenthompson]

If you’re one of the people that don’t like the new light colored bezels, here is a business opportunity for you. Make dark wraps for the bezels in the color you want. Precision cut film should do the job well. Like the wraps that some use on their MacBooks.

Hey good idea @glenthompson , my wife can make & sell vinyl stickers and vinyl edges that will cover the chin & bezels to any color you like.

She makes tons of mugs, cups, shirts, water bottles with custom logos and artwork on her Cricut machine.

What's the benefits of black bezels?

I suppose, people have been used to black bezels for many years from many different manufacturers including Apple devices so it's hard to switch to a new color.

What's the benefits of black bezels?

There are none that I know of. Some people seem to be obsessed with black bezels for some reason, but the only study anybody has been able to find on the topic shows that when people are surveyed about their computer screen without knowing what the study is about, the glossy black bezels were the least liked.
