i 100% agree with you

foldable phones are not fixing it we need to bring back flip phones and sliding phones as well!

According to the phone companies it's cheaper to make all phones look like the same rectangle. That's why we're probably never gonna see phones with as much personality and detail between each model as the old ones had. Even new flip phones suffer from the same simple design syndrome. Cell phones have taken the step from being cool accessories you could express yourself with to just being boring necessities...

I got myself a catS22 flip. Closest thing to a "modern" flip phone i could find. they're were some eastern phones, but whether or not they could work on american cell services was questinable
