Might look the same, but ergonomically, it's perfect. Most phone manufacturers know people don't want sharp corners; my old Nokia 3330/3310/3210 all had rounded corners.

My point still stands: can you imagine a world where companies patented shapes? Can you imagine what we'd be using now if Microsoft patented overlaying windows. What if Coca-Cola managed to patent the typical 2l bottle shape?
