écran tactile bord à bord
Explanation:
In this ref., it relates to a tablet — and there are plenty of examples from other manufacturers:

Acer Aspire V5 122P-42154G32nbb Bleu, 11.6" HD Tactile | Top Achat

https://www.topachat.com/.../detail2_cat_est_ordinateurs_pui...

Here is another ref., which although still a marketing-slanted text, refers to the perhaps better known iPhone (still no French manufacturers around!), and this time, it does actually explain what the term means, thereby drawing the clear parallel with the EN source text here.

Dix ans après le premier iPhone, Apple annonce l'iPhone X - Europe1

www.europe1.fr › Accueil › technologies

14 sept. 2017 - Le bouton d'accueil, présent depuis le premier iPhone, s'éclipse au profit d'un large écran tactile bord à bord recouvrant la quasi-totalité de la face avant. Seule une petite bande, dans laquelle sont logées les capteurs (caméras, ect…) est encore présente en haut de l'écran. iPhoneX2. L'écran, lui aussi, ...

Another ref. in the source langauge that explains the concept in a related application:

Sporteer Velocity V150 Universal Armband for: Amazon.in: Electronics

https://www.amazon.in/Sporteer...Armband.../dp/B01CDWH15O

FULL ACCESS TO PHONE SCREEN WHILE RUNNING: Armband touch screen extends to the edges of the armband case, allowing full access to your phone screen, music controls and apps; ARMBAND IS DESIGNED BY RUNNERS IN THE USA: Other armband features include a full frontal touch screen, locking zippers to ...

Est ce que l'on trouve dans les docs en français de manière générale (intégral ou complet me semblent facultatifs)... dont il est clair que la plupart sont des traductions plus ou moins réussies de l'anglais.

disagree  Tony M: The key point here is not that the screen is 'frontal' (unlikely to be on the back!) but that it is 'FULL-frontal' — i.e. the WHOLE of the front of the device is touch-sensitive (virtually no edges). Supposed selling point for recent devices

disagree  Tony M: Misses out the all-important 'full-frontal', and also, 'sensible' is not the accepted term for this sort of technology.

neutral  Platary (X): Un genre de référence d'un site marchand qui ne fait pas plus autorité qu'un autre ?
26 mins
  -> The term is marketing hype, often left in EN in FR sources; it is hardly a technical term likely to be found elsewhere; it is very likely that the source text is also from a merchant site; and AFAIK no FR mfr. makes such things yet.
disagree  GILLES MEUNIER: bord à bord ne traduit pas full frontal
34 mins
  -> Oh but yes it does! It is 'the whole of the front' Please see added ref. above.
agree  FX Fraipont (X): "Some people are moonstruck over the possibility of slender bezels, a full-frontal touch screen and a disappearing home button." http://time.com/4934673/iphone-8-price/ - The screen is usually "frontal", innit? No use putting it at the back...
1 hr
  -> Thanks, F-X! Yes, of course!
disagree  mchd: simples commentaires d'utilisateurs et/ou arguments marketing sur un site marchand
10 hrs
  -> There are very many such examples that are not user comments; and this is indeed the equivalent term used in FR, whether you like it or not.
agree  Sébastien Renard: En lisant "bord à bord", je comprends clairement que l'écran occupe toute la surface de l'appareil.
