What is a Flip Phone ?

The Flip Phone, or Clamshell Phone as it was first more appropriately named, is a Mobile Phone which is in two or more sections which fold via a hinge.   When the clamshell is open, the phone is ready for use.   The interface components are displayed on the inside of the clamshell, which offers more surface area than when the device is closed.   The components such as keys and display are protected when the clamshell is closed, and it is less long or wide, making the phone easier to carry around.   A disadvantage of the clamshell design is that the connecting hinge is prone to fatigue or failure.

What is a Slide Phone ?

The Slide Phone, or Slider Phone as it is also called, uses the concept of the clamshell, or flip phone, to create additional surface area for the keys and display by having two sections one of which slides into and out of the other.   Whilst offering a smaller protected area thus protecting only some of the components, this design is generally thought to be more robust than the clamshell.
