    The product designer for this needs to be fired. Anyone who’s held a controller for an extended period of time knows these hard corners will kill your hands.

      Same with any product designer who releases a phone with sharp edges just because it looks clean.

        Phones are a slightly different story. Edges do help grip, and ensure product stability (which is essential on a phone). Additionally their smaller form factor means ergonomics don’t come into play as much as a game controller.

        It doesn’t even look good when they do that… it looks like they couldn’t be bothered.

        I had a phone like that for under a week, sent it back. It was so uncomfortable to hold.
