    Never been a fan as it makes the phone incredibly fragile... Everyone drops their phone at some stage so it's almost a guaranteed expensive problem. Better to get a solid flat screen with an OtterBox.

      True, it's an expensive repair. Even though flat screen phones are prone to the same risk, protecting them is simple.

      My oneplus 7 pro fell down more than i can count. One time it fell when i was chasing my dog, one time it fell from the second floor balcony, and worst, fell from my bike when i was riding, albeit not so fast. and i got the frame scratched and dented. The back and the front somehow always survive. Neither cracked or scratched. Finally got the back cracked in early 2024 because when i was working, i accidentally brushed a japanese handsaw to the top left side of the back and it cracked.
      So no. Curved screen ain't fragile. And because the sides are usually mare with mistouch prevention in mind, i have less mistouch in my oneplus 7 pro than my other flat screen phones

    Hey about the screen replacement, I have doubts. I have a nearly 6-year-old mobile Galaxy A7 but I broke the screen recently, The original display costs a minimum of 5800rs, and the duplicate costs 2700rs so will it be worth choosing the original? What do you think

    Is it difficult to mount a curve display phone in a gorilla tripod or in helmet for vlogging?

    • @TheHopelessGeek
      @TheHopelessGeek  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Well, it's a little nerve racking to mount any phone on a helmet, because some of these phones are quite heavy these days.😅 It's best to get a light weight action camera around 5K for this purpose.
      As for mounting on a tripod, it works, but I use a screwing adapter, like this to ensure a good grip without over tightening. amzn.to/3Y9hP49

      Well, technically, all phones are treated to withstand minor falls and bumps. But it's difficult to say objectively. Based on my experience though, motorola phones have a better track record of durability and after-sale service for repairs.

      Screen durability is a confusing thing. It might survive a seemingly fatal fall, or get cracked from a minor incident. It's always best to not take the risk and have either a screen protector or a grippy case. Using a skin will also help improve your grip.

    Should i buy a curved screen i will use it atleast for 4 years or should i go for flat screen? would curved bezels affect when it is kept in a mobile holder? The premiumness of cuved screen is main factor that i upgrade.if not what is the best solution for protection of cuved screen?

    • @TheHopelessGeek
      @TheHopelessGeek  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Curved screens are difficult to protect and keep inside accessories. They're only good for a smooth feel and a borderless look.
      There won't be any issues with a standard phone holder, as these phones have a strong enough frame on the sides, albeit covered with an edge screen.
      If you travel a lot and tend to use your phone outdoors more often, it may be better to get a flat screen one.

Since then no curved displays as a personal device, used them in the showroom and never got one. Finally it's disappearing. I am sad now. Didn't get to experience it. 😂

  • @tuna5287
    @tuna5287 14 วันที่ผ่านมา

    I have used both types for a long time. The flat look better when the phone's display is off. It is aesthetically pleasing. But when the phone's display is on, the flat feel like we are looking down to the display and the picture is stuck inside. For curved, the display seem to pop out and a floating above the screen thus enhancing the visual quality. For the protective quality, it's hard to judge. Personally I prefer the curved one.

    • @TheHopelessGeek
      @TheHopelessGeek  14 วันที่ผ่านมา

    I have a curved display phone and i am just glad that everytime i dropped it is when it had back cover because i had dropped it tonnes of times. Once even while trying to catching my phone as it was freefalling i accidently hit it and even increased its momentum. the loudness of the contact of my phone and the concrete surface was frightening. I was scared to even pick it up and i was amazed to see only a few cracks on the protector only and the screen was fine. If is didnot had the back cover i would have lost the screen as well as the back of my phone as its also glass.
    SO, WHOEVER IS READING THIS AND HAS A CURVED DISPLAY OR A GLASS BACK, TRUST ME ''(THICK )BACK COVER SAVES LIVES!''.
    Also, i kinda regret having a curved screen as i continously have to live in the fear of breaking it and going broke to repair it. and also its not like its some extra useful feature (i find it compeletly gimmick). I bought the curved one as at that time it was the one with best performance within my budget.

      Curved screens don't cause ay such problems. If you like the phone, you can go for it. You'll have to get used to the slightly different in-hand feel of these phones. That's all.🙂👍🏻

    I am Off the video topic but what are the non round/full corners of phones (like they used to 10+ years ago) called?
    And what are the current ones (corner is rounded) called?
    Googling tells me about curved display when i describe them,but they arent..

      I don't recall there being a standard term for the display corners. I remember labelling them simply as "Squared-off corners" and "Rounded corners"

      Maybe they're using lower grade aluminium. Because 6000 series one, which they call "aircraft grade" is very strong. It's the same material Apple used in the iPhone 6s Plus to prevent the bending issue faced by the previous 6 Plus model

    Premium materials? glass and aluminum are not premium materials. When it comes to curved dis[plays I think they look tacky on top of being less functional

    • @TheHopelessGeek
      @TheHopelessGeek  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      6 years ago, aluminum and glass was as premium as they get in a phone. We still use similar designs today, just with stainless steel or titanium and stronger glass.
      And yes, the curved displays don't add much to the functionality.

    • @clownavenger0
      @clownavenger0 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yeah its the same materials we use to hold soft drinks before throwing them in the recycling bin. Its just marketing buzz words. @@TheHopelessGeek

    • @TheHopelessGeek
      @TheHopelessGeek  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thickness of the material matters. Soft drink cans are nowhere near as thick as a phone's frame.
      And, on a side note, aircrafts use the same material, too. They use the same grade aluminum there. It's not a "buzzword" if what they've said is exactly what's in your hands.😂
      An example of a buzzword is Apple's "sapphire crystal glass". Testing shows that it's just a thin layer and nothing close to that of original purity. But the 6000 series aluminum used in most phones is literally just that.

      @@TheHopelessGeek yeah planes are soda cans with wings that have jet engines bolted to them. It's the same when it comes to rockets. The difference being aluminum is used in those applications due to its low weight. It's used in phones because it's cheap

      @TheHopelessGeek  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Correct. It's cheap, and easy to machine, making it accessible for many. It suffices for the durability needs of a handheld device. If it's good enough for rocketships, it's certainly fine for a phone. 🙂

      I agree that it isn't anything practical. But it feels super smooth when you use edge gestures. Also, when viewing from the front, the side bezels disappear, making it look nice for watching content.
