I'm getting the itch to get a new phone. Not because I need one, but I love trying out different form factors and seeing what works and doesn't in the mobile space.

I really loved my Nokia 6xx series of windows phone. If the battery wasn't so terrible, the NextBit Robin would have been one of my favorites.

I am feeling really drawn to the Moto Razr Ultra just to see how a clamshell phone feels.

If anyone has other "quirky" phones that I should look at, let me know

@evs The Razr is a very nice phone. I had one for a while before I traded it in for my Samsung Fold 7 (which is also very nice).

@digitalsnow Oh good to know.

Any reason you swapped from clamshell to book fold?

I can;t see myself using such a wide device. I have been trying to be on my phone less and less, so the clamshell seemed like a nice way to get a little more than the notifications without letting myself get lost in the sauce

@evs I just wanted to try both. The Fold is actually thinner that people think (the front screen, I mean. It’s not super wide) and the inner screen is nice sometimes.

@digitalsnow Oh nice! Now I'll need to see which one is more affordable on Swappa or eBay

Does the Fold do wireless charging? That is one thing I am surprisingly missing on my CMF Pro 2. I had to get a case with QI2 magnets in it so I could have it in my eye line when driving for maps

@evs It does not, unless you have a MagSafe case.
