I get it why foldable phones are a thing, it’s like having a normal size phone and a small tablet in one and it’s easier to work on fodable devices than regular phones. But why are flip phones a thing?

    cellphones are designed with the microwave radio transmitter facing the back to minimize electromagnetic radiation from nuking the users. a foldable or clamshell design ends up nuking the owners.

      Do you think radio is harmful? Radio waves are way lower in energy than microwaves so there won’t be much nuking going on regardless of phone design and if you believe radio waves are harmful I have some bad news for you regarding the radio waves that saturate the planet from literally every corner of the universe.
