Foldable flip phones are an overly complicated solution to a nonexistent problem.

They solve the same problems as the original folding phones. They allow you to keep you phone in your slacks or skirt pocket without destroying the look of your outfit or the screen of your phone.

Slab phones are a disaster for pocket-ability. Yes you can shove it in your back pocket where it looks like ass, breaks your ass when you sit down, and breaks the screen or the phone itself if you sit down in the wrong way or on the wrong thing.

Folding phones solve those problems.
