The Galaxy Z Flip series has been around for a few years, reviving the clamshell smartphone form factor popularized by the likes of Motorola, Nokia, and others in the late 1990s and early 2000s.
The Galaxy Z Flip 4 continues in pretty much the same vein as the previous Z Flip phones, offering a pocket-friendly form factor when folded and a smartphone-sized internal screen when folded out. As much as I liked this design, however, there’s a small hurdle in the way of it reaching its true potential as a compact phone.
