JAKARTA - The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra may be one of the most powerful phones in the world, but its "boxy" aesthetic design is now reportedly having an unexpected negative impact. A number of long-time users have reported that the sharp 90-degree corner on the flagship phone is slowly starting to "cut" their pants pockets to holes.
This sharp corner design that gives a professional and premium impression turns out to be an aggressive pressure point when the phone is in the pocket of pants, especially on jeans or tight materials.
The report, which is widely discussed on Reddit and Samsung communities, shows photos of the pocket of the pants that are torn right at the corner where the phone's titanium is located. This problem usually does not appear immediately, but is the result of friction over months when users walk or move.
So sharp, many users also complain of discomfort when holding a phone without a case, because the angle often "pierces" the palm of the hand.
This mass complaint seems to have been heard by Samsung, evidenced by the design changes on its successor, the Galaxy S25 Ultra, which now comes with a more rounded corner to improve ergonomics and save users' pockets.
For those of you who are still loyal to using the Galaxy S24 Ultra, experts suggest one of the simplest but effective solutions: use a protective case. The extra layer of the case usually has a more blunt design on the corners, so it can dampen the sharp metal pressure against the pocket fabric.
Otherwise, you may have to prepare to spend extra money not only on mobile installments, but also to buy new pants periodically.
