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

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.

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.
