I don't actually mean a drink containing phone (although that would be a fun idea), but just curved like a flask, which are curved to fit against the body. Phones have gotten big and the flat slabs have become very visibly obvious in the pocket, which looks kind of silly to me. A slight curve would help a lot to make them less conspicuous and probably feel a little more comfortable in the pocket as well (iPhone Air + curve would be the ultimate). It might also feel more comfortable in the hand.
Possible downsides:
More possibility for damage if say it was sat on--but maybe good engineering can mitigate this.
Rocking if trying to touch the screen while the phone is lying on a table--but maybe if the phone has a small flat area on its back, it might be enough to keep it from most rocking.
Apparently Samsung made this with the Galaxy Round. But apparently only released in Korea for some reason. Anyone happen know more information on it and why it was discontinued?
