Hands-on Video Galaxy S24 Ultra Demonstrates How Samsung Fully Embraced Flat Screen

The rumored Galaxy S24 Ultra video is only 17 seconds long, but it reveals just enough of the phone to give us an idea of what we may expect. Honestly, there are no surprises. The design has been leaked several times, and we know that this time around, Samsung has decided to forego curves in favor of a flat display.

Unlike Samsung's previous Ultra flagships, which have curved screens, the Galaxy S24 Ultra features a fully flat screen. Now, while this may appear to be a downgrade, it actually looks much better in person.

WCCFTech’s Furqan Shahid recently received the Redmagic 9 Pro, which has a fully flat 6.8-inch screen that looks fantastic. There is no color warping around the borders, and the entire screen provides a smooth experience. Furthermore, he believes flatter screens should provide better overall protection, making it easier to install tempered glass without the risk of liquid adhesive leaking out over time.

It is true that Samsung pioneered curved screens, but now that the firm is switching, we should be ready to make the leap. Fans can't wait to see how Samsung justifies this decision when the Galaxy S24 Ultra is officially released on January 17. You can expect a lot more information in the following days, and we'll keep you updated.
