No more flat screen Samsung Galaxy S in future?
Samsung also launched its Note 7 with only one variant with dual curved edge display.
Samsung for the past couple of years has been launching its flagship Galaxy smartphones in two variants. One sporting a flat screen, while the other one having a dual curved edge display. It came as a surprise when the latter proved to be more popular even after being priced higher than the regular variant.
According a report by SamMobile, Samsung will only be producing the curved display Galaxy S handsets.
Samsung’s mobile chief Dong-jin Koh said “Samsung has considered that it would make the edge display as the identity of the Galaxy S smartphone lineup.”
This doesn’t comes as a guarantee that the company will ditch the flat screen model of the phone, but it’s evident that the company can launch the next flagship with only one variant, as they did with the Galaxy Note 7.
If market response is positive, perhaps Samsung might go down with the curved screen design for Galaxy S8 next year, but this is just pure speculation at this moment.
