Galaxy S8 may ditch flat screen

Only a curved screen version of the Galaxy Note 7 was released, and the flagship S range could follow suit.

Samsung Mobile President Dong-jin Koh told The Korea Herald, "Samsung has considered that it would make the edge display the identity of the Galaxy S smartphone lineup." Some are taking this to mean that Samsung could soon move away from flat-screened smartphones.

However, before that can happen, Koh believes that Samsung needs to provide different user experiences through the Edge screen.
