Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra's Sharp Edges Spark User Concerns Over Damage and Discomfort

Reports indicate that the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra's sharp corners have caused damage to users' pockets and clothing. Owners have reported instances ranging from small holes to significant tears in garments.

The issue has been documented extensively on the S24 Ultra subreddit, where users have actively shared their experiences. Further amplifying these concerns, a recent tweet by a Samsung enthusiast highlighted multiple examples of pocket damage specifically attributed to the phone's design.

"Owners have reported instances ranging from small holes to significant tears in garments."

Beyond the visible wear and tear on fabric, some users have also noted a functional drawback: the phone's sharp edges make it less comfortable to hold. This design aspect has been reported to cause discomfort in palms or pinkies during prolonged use.

Samsung Addresses Design in Newer Models

Samsung appears to be proactively addressing this design concern in its newer models. The Galaxy S25 Ultra, released in 2025, features noticeably softer corners, indicating a shift in design philosophy.

Furthermore, leaked renders of the upcoming S26 Ultra suggest an even more significantly rounded design. These leaks also hint at a potential re-design of the S Pen's clicker button, integrating it more seamlessly with the phone's softened contours.
