As Samsung’s newest flagship is set to be announced soon, rumors have been floating around that the Korean giant is creating the successor to the Galaxy S5 in two variations, one of which has a curved screen.
The curved-screen variant of the new flagship is reported to be similar to the Galaxy Note Edge smartphone released last year. We all know that the Note Edge’s curved screen functions independently as a placeholder for quick shortcuts and on-screen actions available on the device.
Another variation is set to be made with an all-metal unibody, which might be similar to its Galaxy Alpha and A-series smartphones. This is a huge departure from its current polycarbonate plastic design language that paved the way for the success of its former banner devices such as the Galaxy S3.
Last December, an AnTuTu benchmark of a G925F device sporting 3GB of RAM, a 5.5-inch display with a QHD resolution similar to the LG G3, 32GB of internal storage made the rounds on tech cyberspace. (READ MORE: Is Samsung G925F the new Galaxy S6?)
Samsung is definitely taking a different approach to its flagship devices after decreasing sales and reported losses in 2014, the first in three years. We shall see with that, as the company is set to announce the new flagship at Barcelona’s Mobile World Congress in March.
