This sounds interesting, so I will hang on to my old phone (which is starting to fall apart) a little longer and see what Santa brings us on August 29th. However, I don't see what good it would do to make such a big device curved rather than flat? The original Nexus phone was curved because it fits your face when you make calls, but this one will rarely be used to make calls without a headphone. And for other uses (browsing, reading, e-mail, etc) a curved phone would be more of a handicap than a good thing.

Looks like Samsung is the new leader when it come to innovation. I'm liking this new model.

The only reason that they make room for a battery at all is that the device still has to work. They will calculate what they need for say 8 hours on time and then, the case will shrink around that battery! |

Could this be the new Galaxy Note 2? It certainly looks sexy although I think practicality dictates that some bezel is necessary! |

But such a device will be too difficult to use without any additional case. Unless, Samsung has invented a technology by which the phone can differentiate between the actions of just holding it and actually passing some instruction like opening an app or scrolling a page.
