| Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles
available from Wikipedia or other free sources online.The flip or
clamshell is an electronics form factor which is in two or more sections
that fold via a hinge. When the clamshell is open, the device is ready
for use. The interface components are kept inside the clamshell, which
offers more surface area than when the device is closed. Interface
components such as keys and display are protected when the clamshell is
closed, and it is less long or wide, making the device easier to carry
around. A disadvantage of the clamshell design is the connecting hinge,
which is prone to fatigue or failure. The clamshell form factor is most
closely associated with the mobile phone market, as Motorola used to
have a trademark on the term "flip phone",but the term "flip phone" has
become genericized to be used more frequently than "Clamshell" in
colloquial speech. The design is also used on some landline phones,
particularly cordless phones. Other devices using the flip form include
laptop computers, subnotebooks, the Game Boy Advance SP and the Nintendo
DS, though these are less frequently described as "flip" or "clamshell"
compared to cellular phones. |
