The Galaxy Note 6 has been in the rumor mill quite a lot in recent weeks, and a recent rumor suggested Samsung is testing two variants of its next phablet flagship. One with a flat display, and another with a curved display. Basically, it looks like it could be a return to 2014, when Samsung launched the Galaxy Note Edge alongside the Galaxy Note 4. But at this point, it would be logical to assume that should the Note 6 come with a curved display, it will have curves at both sides of the screen like Samsung's Galaxy S edge smartphones.
But a look at our comments section tells us that the idea of a curved Galaxy Note 6 isn't very exciting for some. From being unable to use the S Pen properly on the edges to the edge display being just a gimmick without many use cases, not everyone is keen on the idea of a curved display on the best phablet lineup in the market. Of course, none of that would matter if Samsung went for a direct sequel to the Galaxy Note Edge, with a curve on just one side of the screen. That curve would be bigger, and as a result, offer more functionality without taking anything away from the main display.
Samsung is reportedly undecided on whether it will launch the flat or curved model of the Note 6, and with the divided opinion we have seen on what could come to pass, we decided to put the question to our readers. What do you think folks? Would you like to see a curved Galaxy Note 6, or do you think Samsung should stick to a traditional flat display? Let us know your thoughts in the comments and through the poll below!
Update: The poll results are in, and an overwhelming 47 percent of voters think Samsung should stick to a flat display for its next Note flagship. A fair section of our readers (35 percent of the voters) want those curves that can be seen on the Galaxy S edge lineup, and surprisingly, not many think Samsung should repeat the form factor of the Galaxy Note Edge.
