Manufacturers experimented with a number of phone types and designs before the smartphone era to see what would stay.
From candy bar phones with clicking dial pads to more complex flip phones and sliders to phones with complete QWERTY keyboards, there’s something for everyone.
But it was the flip phone that captured the hearts of consumers back then: small enough to put in your pocket but extendable to give you extra functions. Samsung has been hard at work developing the next generation of mobile device, one that combines the power of today’s smartphone with the portability and aesthetics of a flip phone.
Samsung has finally struck the mark with the debut of the Galaxy Z FIip3 5G this year, with consumers and tech fans praising the device’s inventiveness, technological maturity, durability, and style. The Galaxy Z FIip3 5G was named one of “The 100 Best Inventions of 2021” by TIME Magazine, joining the year’s most breakthrough creations from throughout the world — an achievement Samsung has accomplished after three generations of foldable innovation. The flip phone era has been reborn, complete with all of the current smartphone’s advances, thanks to a lot of hard work.

“For the past few years, manufacturers have been trying to merge the functionality of smartphones with the portability of a ’00s-era flip phone—with results that were middling at best. But with the Galaxy Z FIip3, Samsung finally seems to have nailed it. The Z Flip is as compact as devices from two decades ago, only instead of a tiny display and physical dial pad, you get a vibrant 6.7-in. display, with another screen on the front cover so you can easily read messages or screen calls when it’s closed.”

So you can spend more time immersed in your favourite stories, games, or video calls. The Galaxy Z Flip3 and Z Fold3 are the first foldable phones with an IPX8 water resistance grade, making them even more practical.
