Nice work! If I may say, though, I don't think there's any real demand for a curved screen. It also makes it hard to pack components internally.
 
3D is a passing fad. A stupid passing fad, that will be the butt of many jokes in ten years time. And the source of much embarrassment for the early adopters. :rolleyes:

You say that now, but just watch. If Apple does it you'll all be clamoring about how "innovative" they are.

I agree, although 3d looks a bit tacky and childish on other devices. I think there is enough room to use this feature in a more spectaculair and professional manor and one of the few who can achieve and deliver this...is simply Apple.
 
Pops for the nice render, at least you can use the software. Shame the actual phone design itself is lacking. Seriously, how can people think they are doing good work simply by copying what Apple have already done?!
 
nice work! I'm not criticizing the rendering just the probability of the design. If you have seen the reviews for the xperia arc they all say that with the curve design its terrible to hold.
 
Why would you want a curved screen? Looks bad.

I don't think it looks bad necessarily, it just looks very fake, which it is. Only one of the photos is showing a curve, and it is so slight you can barely tell. I can't imagine what such a slight curve would add to the design appeal. If you can barely tell it is curving, then there is no point to having it.
 
Not too keen on the curved screen but nice attempt.

Think people are a bit harsh marking down your post.

This isn't school, give the guy a break.
 
Looks just like the curved glass on my Nexus S. I love the phone, don't care for the curved glass. Why Apple wants to copy that is beyond me.

I prefer the flat glass on the my tiny iPhone 4.
