Debate: Curved vs Flat displays?

Flat displays all day every day and exclusively. Any curved display phone is a hard pass. So many great devices are ruined by the glare, decreased usability, and increased fragility of curved displays.

Accidentally touched havent been a thing in years. You're just parroting what you heard about curved screens when they came out years ago.

All of my most recent phones have had curved screens. I don't really have a preference but what do want is a phone with curved sides so that it doesn't dig into your hands. I'm looking at you iPhone

Yes I like sony's take on bezels vs the chunky bezels in the pixel 7 with a hole punch too. If only sonys were so expensive.

Bring back the waterfall display.

Flat all the way. Curved screens make interacting with the screen edges difficult and often distort images that reach the edge. They make screen protectors difficult to put on and stay in place without peeling. They also reduce the effectiveness of a case by leaving the edge exposed.

The digging into the hands thing is pretty bogus unless you do not have a case, otherwise it is just a matter of picking the right case.

The new Nubia Z50 Ultra is an absolutely beautiful looking piece of tech. However, flat screen... well... actually 2.5D as they say. Just not sure I want to trade in my ultra-curved Axon for something so flat. I know the bezels are minimal on the Z50, but compared to the Axon, they're much more noticeable. I think the road to bezel-less, for me, began with the first Xiaomi Mi Mix. Three sides almost perfectly bezel-less. Everything packed in the bottom bezel. For a selfie, you had to turn the phone upside down! LOL! We've come a long way...

I have to agree with others here. I've had a bunch of curved/waterfall displays... never dropped or cracked a single one. And as someone else mentioned, the iPhones are all flat... TRY and find an iPhone without a cracked screen. Few and far between. I will admit, the back panel of the Axon 40 Ultra is silly slippery. But, I have the stock clear case on it, and the grip is tight and solid. Zero slippage. Haven't dropped it yet... even while drinking! LOL!

I like the curvature on my S23 Ultra but it is not a make or break issue with me. I didn't care for some of the earlier implementations of the curved screen as the curvature was more accentuated and took away a little to much working screen area. I always use a case and never use a screen protector (not much of a need for them these days unless you are chronically careless with your phone) which I think to some degree would mitigates any negative comfort issues to either a curved or flat screen edge.

Give me Flat screens or give me death!
