Samsung started experimenting with its curved “edge” display with the Note line last year. The company released a variation of the Note 4 with one curved edge and said that the product was a limited edition concept. Just a few months later, the company expanded this experimental feature to its flagship Galaxy S line. This time, though, the company put curved glass on both sides of the display.
Now it sounds like that change could make its way to the next Note edge. The Korea Herald cites Roh Tae-moon, executive vice president of Samsung’s product strategy team, as saying there’s a possibility that Samsung could bring the dual-edge display to the Galaxy Note.
This isn’t all that surprising. First impressions of the Galaxy S6 edge have been extremely positive. During his hands-on time with the devices, Daniel was impressed by the S6 edge’s “ subtle, seductive curved screen.” While he describes the more mainstream S6 as a “sight to behold,” the S6 edge feels like something brand new and Daniel says “holding the S6 edge is revelatory.”
What will be more interesting is if Samsung brings some of the design elements of the S6 to the Note. It seems unlikely, given the Galaxy Note is beautiful in its own right, but the metal and glass construction of the S6 edge certainly flows well with the curved edges.
