I get what you mean, but with flip phones I meant phones like the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip or Moto Razr phones.
Those are still foldables. I definitely thought that by "flip phone" you meant dumb-phones.
They're different sorts of foldables. Hence Samsung calling one of theirs "Fold" and the other "Flip" (because the latter is the same form factor as older clamshell designs).
Yeah, under Flip Phone I understand those things that were popular right before Smartphones became common
To me a flip phone is a phone that can be folded but the screen is not part of the hinge. Whereas "foldable" refers to a screen that can be folded.
