Hi, I'm really frustrated about the Samsung s8 curved screen and before buying the s8 I was always a Sony guy. My question is if the screen is curved on the edges? How the screen protectors are working on it? I don't want to buy a curved screen cellphone again. To much random touch.
Thank you and sorry for my bad English.

I have yet to receive mine but from what I've read the screen is curved and is a pain to get to work with the screen protectors that are available on day 1. The first reviews have started to come and they all seem to be 1 star on Amazon: either you get a product that sticks well but is visibly and annoyingly smaller than the screen, or something that peels off on its own at the borders...

That's very disappointing as I can't imagine using a phone without a screen protector these days. If anyone found a good solution, please come forward!

I confirm the phone edges are just a little curved at the sides, so no like samsung edges, no random touch etc but that's enough for tempered glass screen protectors to don't stick perfectly at the sides (even if I bought a protection smaller than the phone front panel, which is covering only the real screen area) so it looks bad from an aesthetic point of view. damned edged screens hate them! nevertheless apart from this I am loving this phone so far, got it yesterday! :good::eek:
