Painful Edges!

Sharp corners hurt! I have the Note20 for more than 3 years and I love it. Now that it's old and the battery nearly exploded, I still wanted to buy from Samsung because of the pens. As an architect I find the pen super useful. So I bought the new Galaxy S24 Ultra and omg, THE EDGES HURT! Seriously why Samsung, why? I understand that the design might be more elegant but don't you care about the user's experience at all? I am very disappointed, I cannot even hold it in my hand so I sent it back.

If the edges are really hurting you, you can get a case that has rounded edges if you get a phone like the s24 u again

Respect to you and your opinion @Joannabbas, but I always put a wallet case on my devices (I currently own a wallet case covered S23 Ultra), which makes them soft and cushioned and very pleasant to hold. This makes my devices more bulky of course, but I have no problem sliding them in to my pockets or even using them one handed. You have the right to reject any phone you are not comfortable using though, and I hope you do end up with a device that suits you well.

I use the Spigen Rugged Armour Case on my phone @Joannabbas which is very minimal. 

Not because of the issues you raise but to add grip and some drop protection.

The advice I offer is my own and does not represent Samsung’s position.

Don't find they 'hurt' at all bit of a dramatic over statement not that bad

I'm using a Ringke Silicone case and a screen protector from the same brand without any issues. If you're using a tempered glass screen protector, there might be a gap between the glass and the case. You might want to consider switching to a softer screen protector.

100% disagree, one handed without a case, coming from a rounded phone, they hurt.  I actually get a big line along my hand/finger from the weight of the phone after a few minutes of use.  Disagree is fine but let's not say someone is being "dramatic" simply because the experience is different.  Not helpful at all in the conversation.

100% agree, for some people it hurts and other people need to accept that, it's weird not to. Just got an S24 Ultra as I'm not rich enough to get an S25 ultra and am currently on the hunt for a rounded corner case. After hours of research it appears you need to file down a case yourself as no one really does one 😞
