How is what you see in curved mirrors different from ordinary flat mirrors?

Curved mirrors, such as concave and convex mirrors, distort the reflection of objects due to their curved surface. Concave mirrors can focus light to create real or virtual images, while convex mirrors always produce virtual images that are smaller than the object. In contrast, flat mirrors provide a true reflection of objects without any distortion or magnification.
