Personally, the exterior look of the next iPhone is not a big deal to me and I don't care if the display is curved or not. What I want is for iOS 11 to be a runaway smash hit. The look of the iPhone may attract, but iOS determines who stays with it.

I do not want to have a curved display, what benefits would it confer ?

Possibly preventing people from accidentally muting or hanging up during a phone call...

Yes. I have done that a few times, but not enough to be a problem for me, unlike some others I know.

My "species"? What the heck?!? Please explain.

A small jest.. and a question,how do you hold/grip your phone , my hands are capable of easily avoiding any buttons, after all you know they're there.
I wondered if an alien hand might not be able to.

The few times I've accidentally muted or hung up a call was not while holding the phone like I typically hold it, but when I had the phone propped between my shoulder and face while doing something else with my hands. Maybe a curved display "might" have prevented me from muting or hanging up. Again, I'm not lobbying for a curved display, but was only answering the question you posted above about what would be the benefit of having a curved display.
