You also get Corning Gorilla Glass 3 protection against scratches and damage, as well as 2.5D curves at the edges for a cleaner look. Although the curves do exist and can be felt, the screen itself sits on a slab just above the main metal body of the phone, thereby negating the effects of the curvature just a bit.
