Work had me procure flips and folds for QA. I got to briefly and test drive them before I handed them over.

I expected to flip to be useless in the fold to be drool worthy for having a mini tablet sized screen

I carried the fold for a few days, having screens even in candy bar mode meant that I was constantly worried about scratching it and it just had fingerprints everywhere all the time

It was uncomfortable to unfold it, and the aspect ratio was wrong for a lot of applications and websites.

The flip however folded up into a clamshell and fit right in my pocket like old days.

For the price, there's no way in hell I'm buying either but... Having a cell phone easily fitting in a pocket's pretty fucking cool

For the price

The Motorola razr is about the same price as any non flippable flagship
