That could well be but the quality is nowhere near as nice....... The curved CRT is the best!

You should see my LaCie Electron Blue 22 CRT computer monitor, it has 22" flat aperture grille CRT. Absolutely glorious, higher than HD resolution, the pinnacle of CRT IMHO

I think that flat CRTs started with computers, less picture distortions, good for graphics.
Then it became a sales gimmick
