The foldable for the foldable-curious.
Nubia Flip 5G's only real job was to make the clamshell form factor affordable, and at $499 it did — undercutting Samsung and Motorola by hundreds. The dated chip, tiny cover screen and missing IP rating are the price of that entry. If you want the flip experience without the flip premium, it is the cheapest door in.
