Will you choose a phone with an edge next time

No. I'm over the curved screen so next phone i'll be going with no curve. I had the s6 edge plus which i liked with the bigger screen but when i went to the s7 edge, im not in love with it so i think ill be going with the next note that hits the stores. Ive always loved notes.

Only thing it sounds like the next note will have a curved screen as well-will you still buy?

About the only thing I ever used on the edge panel was people edge for when I was waiting for a text from someone. In case people don't know, you set up people in that panel so people are assigned a color. When you turn the phone upside down, if a person calls or texts, the panel will glow with the color so you can easily tell they called or texted.

Otherwise, there is nothing useful about it for me.

Wow, I've never had an Edge device so I didn't know about the colour thing! That's pretty sick! I need to tell my mom! Haha. She doesn't really use the "edge" part of her device but I feel like she'd like to know this.

Hoping the S8 and Note 8 edges are more like the Note 7's less pronounced and steeper edges.

Had the Note 7 from day 1 til 2nd recall and then got the S7E in exchange. I never had issues with accidental touches on the Note 7 at all and I have bunch regularly on the S7E. Some thicker cases help a little bit, but it seems like the N7 had less or zero sensitivity on the edges than the S7E does. Also the more pronounced edge on the S7E makes it tricky to tap the #1 on the far left side of the Google Gboard, which can be frustrating.

I may try out this app that was suggested in this thread to see if that helps at all, but overall I do like the concept of the edge...

I don't use the edge as of now, but since my next phone is going to be the N8, I don't think I will have a choice.
