Cameras are already being placed under the screen e.g. Xiaomi have implemented it and it probably won't be long before it's public.

I personally think it's too far, we should stick to bezels so we can have great hardware for cameras, speakers and screens.

I agree, I think phone industrial design peaked with the iPhone 5S/SE, Nexus 5, and Pixel 1. I'd like that design forever please.

I would love to see a successor to my old, rubberized steel Motorola Milestone with keyboard, but with a larger screen and unlocked bootloader, please. All these modern phones are way too flimsy.

I agree that dedicated hardware is better, but then again I used to think standalone cameras were always going to be better than a phone camera and (while price-for-price it's still true) phone cameras are "good enough" and the best camera is the one you have with you.
