Before you jump straight to the comments to tell me I’m an idiot wishing for the return of an objectively bad feature, I want to make one thing clear.
I’m not calling for the return of curved displays as Samsung popularized.
Instead, I’m looking back on a nearly-defunct feature and wondering, in an age of identical iPhone clones, should we look at our displays again?
Samsung, once the pioneer of curved-screen technology, has completely abandoned the idea.
Most companies that followed in its footsteps, like Honor, have also abandoned the design, with only Motorola remaining as a significant name producing phones with curved displays.
It’s clear that curved displays aren’t coming back anytime soon, but as every phone begins to resemble an iPhone, I think there’s a reasonable case for reconsidering curved displays and what we can learn from them.
