flat vs. curved: Unofficial renders show the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra next to the iPhone 15 Ultra

The technological community is in constant expectation for the advances in the most outstanding mobile devices of Samsung and Apple. Rumors and leaks have been circulating around the future models of both companies, and the leak of these rendered images of the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra next to the iPhone 15 Ultra increase the excitement.

The image shared by @UniverseIce (via TechRadar) allows a visual comparison between the Galaxy S24 Ultra and the iPhone 15 Ultra in terms of design and display.

According to the rumors, the Galaxy S24 Ultra will feature a flatter screen compared to its predecessor, the Galaxy S23 Ultra. In contrast, it is expected that iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Ultra models opt for slightly curved screen edges.

This change in screen design will also influence the dimensions of the devices. The width of the Galaxy S24 Ultra, according to these leaks, will increase compared to its predecessor, suggesting a shift towards a slightly wider device.

What do the designs of these mobiles imply?

Design changes often come with compromises, and in this case, the choice between curved edges and a flat screen involves a balance between aesthetics and usability. Although curved edges are often visually appealing, they can make it difficult to grip the device.

It is important to note that personal preferences play a key role in this choice. For example, @UniverseIce seems not to be a big fan of the move to flatter edges on the Galaxy S24 Ultra, considering it a throwback to older models.

Despite these exciting leaks, enthusiasts will have to wait before they can compare the actual models. It is expected that Galaxy S24 phones to be released in January or February, while new iPhone models are expected to debut in the next month.
