Back in 1996, Motorola brought around a revolution in the world of phones and started a storm — to be more precise, it created what is notably known as the first flip phone, the StarTAC series of ‘clamshell-style wearable’ phones.
The rage died down a few years later but was followed up with something equally interesting. In 2008, Nokia started toying around with foldable phones — bringing out the Nokia 6600 Fold, which again was known to be a clamshell-style device.
