ZTE Libero Flip looks like the first truly affordable clamshell foldable


The device has been launched in Japan and is priced at $420.

It is dubbed ZTE Liberi Flip — a clamshell phone priced at $420 and even cheaper if pre-ordered, making it only $265 (via The Verge). The large display can be bent to 90 degrees, which brings additional functionality like the ability to take photos, making it a viewfinder, eliminating the need for a separate tripod (again, quite similar to what we have seen on the Galaxy Z Flip 5). While several rumors have pointed at Samsung already in the works to bring in an affordable book style and clamshell foldable phones, nothing concrete about it is available yet.
