To recap
The most impressive foldable to date comes in the form of a clamshell. The reimagination of the Razr some 15 years after the original isn’t just a play on nostalgia, though, it’s a fully formed flip phone with flexible OLED screen, along with a second Quick View display to the front. The camera and battery life may be questionable though – we’ll have to wait and see.
