I have an S6 edge, which has been surprisingly sturdy, much probably because the metallic chassis juts out slightly above the glass in all corners, and it appears to provide a quite reasonable protection. A custom home screen app / loader fixes the most atrocious software issues, and the device is well balance and nicely sized. But yeah, they really should try stop fixing Android by adding crap software and crazy home screen junk.
But, then they made the S7, which looks like if it had somehow accidentally swollen after the design was done. Quite literally as if someone simply increased the thickness of all the interior parts, and thought: -Should we bother to fix the outer bezel so it looks reasonable, and protects this amazing screen masquerading as a phone? Naaah, I'm already late for lunch.
And then the S8. I guess ot went something like this. Hey, look, Apple made a phone without any tactile features whatsoever, it's super easy to drop, and the biggest versions even bends if you sit down with it in your pocket, we must do something similar!!
We have this infinity screen trademark, so lets make a painted bezel that doesn't protect the sceen at all, with no tactile feedback, and oh, did I mention the bezel is painted? It's a premium feature, because of the lack of a clearly visible border, we can make it so the screen will look banged up even before the screen has actually become damage!!
I had some hopes for the S9, that they might have realized that only Apple can make super slippery phones with dubious usability and have everyone rave about how amazing they were. Apparently, they either haven't figured ot out, or we actually now have two phone producers that can sell expensive everyday tools that appear to be made to break.
I don't get it, at all.
