Japan was the leader of cool phones until smartphones dominated. I unironically would like a cute modern flip phone today, but the market isn't exactly delivering. There are few flip phones, but they're pretty ugly and seem to be designed to meet the needs of senior citizens.


The current flip phones seem mostly motivated by functionality rather than style, which is not necessarily a bad thing.

Ironically, a plain looking flip phone might attract more attention than cute looking smart phones, because fewer people are sporting flip phones.
