In this case it's a simple reason: there are stereo speakers, which means there has to be a speaker at the bottom. That stops the screen from going all the way to the bottom edge.

There's technology to make the sound with the screen. Vivo Apex did it:

And it's not supposed to be as good as actual speakers?

Disc: Googler but don't work on related teams.
