Hey everyone,

I hope you're all doing well. I'm currently in the market for a new phone and I'm leaning towards getting a flip phone for a change. I appreciate the simplicity and nostalgia they offer, but I'm a bit out of the loop when it comes to the best options available these days.

I wanted to reach out to this knowledgeable community and ask for your recommendations. Which flip phone do you think is the best to buy right now? I'm looking for a good balance between modern features and the classic flip design.

I've heard about models like the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip, Motorola Razr, and Nokia 2720 Flip, but I'd love to hear from those who have hands-on experience with these phones or any other suggestions you might have.

If you could share your insights, pros and cons, and any personal experiences you've had with flip phones, I'd greatly appreciate it. Your input will be incredibly helpful for me in making an informed decision.

Thank you in advance for your help! Looking forward to your recommendations and advice.

Check this guy's YT channel, it is pretty much dedicated to flip phones/dumb phones.

He is also actually knowledgeable about Android stuff (ADB, sideloading, etc)
