Do flip phones solve that? It's just as big when open, the flip part is just so it fits nicer in your pocket.
Yeah that lost me too. Many standard phones have a much smaller footprint than the flip phones once they're open, and imo a hinged portion that moves when pressure is applied makes it easier to drop, not more difficult. Like with where my fingers are on the back of my phone now, if I move them I could push the top portion closed if it were a flip phone.
