Chances are that most of you grew up with some sort of clamshell cellphone back in the day. Surely these evolved into being the cheap dumb phones that you'll even find in a convenience store, but this is not how the form factor started.
My first ever was the Motorola StarTAC 3000, which at its time was dramatically smaller than any other cellphone in the market. The value proposition: Get the same experience of a large phone when you need it, that you can later close and tuck away when you don't. It's why they were so expensive, it's why the original Motorola RAZR remained the best selling phone for ages, and it's funny how that is the main selling point for the new breed of clamshells today.
This is the new Moto RAZR, Motorola's bet that nostalgia is enough to get customers interested in its phones again, and this is the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip, the company's second modern foldable, and also proof that nostalgia shouldn't be the only reason you launch a clamshell.
It's probably too early to fully say that clamshell smartphones are back, but I get so many questions about these two phones every single day, that it's only fair to tell you now which offering is better. I'm Jaime Rivera with Pocketnow and this is Samsung Galaxy Z Flip vs Moto RAZR, sponsored by Surfshark.
