There are Seven Style of Cell phones
Cell Phones which depend on its functionality or
aesthetic considerations are designed with one of a variety of
different form factors.
Flip
A flip phone from Chinese Wholesaler is composed of two or more sections
that are connected by hinges, allowing the phone to fold or "flip" so as
to become more compact. The phone's speaker and microphone are placed
closer to the operator's ear and mouth, improving usability when flipped
open. The phone can become much smaller and more portable than when it
is opened for use when flipped shut.
Motorola was once owner of a trademark for the term "flip phone",
however the term "flip phone" has become genericized, and used more
frequently than "clamshell" in colloquial speech. Motorola was the
manufacturer of the famed Wholesale Flip Phone.
Slider
A slider phone consists of usually two, however,sometimes more, segments
that slide past each other on rails. Most slider phones have a display
segment which houses the speaker used for calls and the phone's screen,
while another segment contains Quad Band Cell Phone or keyboard and
slides out for use. When these are not in use,the goal of using a
sliding form factor is to allow the operator to take advantage of full
physical quad band or keypads, without sacrificing portability, by
"retracting" them into the phone.
The Siemens SL55 was one of Wholesale Slide Phone. Some phones
have an automatic slider built in which deploys the keypad. Many phones
will "pop out" their keypad segments as soon as the user begins to slide
the phone apart. Unique models are the 2-way slider such as the Nokia
N85 or Nokia N95. The Sony Ericsson W580, a "slider" phone from China
Wholesale.
Bar
Wholesale Bar Phone is in the shape of a
cuboid. It is named because of its resemblance to a candy bar in size
and shape. Bar-type mobile phones normally have the screen and keypad
all on one face. This form factor is widely used by a variety of
manufacturers, such as Sony Ericsson and Nokia. The Samsung SPH-M620 is a
unique take on the bar form factor, offering different devices on
either side of the bar; a phone on one side, and a digital audio player
on the other.
Brick
Although it can be applied to older flip, slider and swivel phones as
well, "Brick" is a term often used to refer to large, outdated bar-type
phones. Large, bulky phones like the Motorola have been displaced by
their newer, smaller counterparts, which provide greater portability
thanks to smaller antennas and slimmer battery packs.
Slate
A slate phone is a subset of the candy bar form that, such as a slate
computer, has minimal buttons, instead relying upon a Wifi Cell Phone and virtual Qwerty Keyboard Cell Phone.
Swivel
A swivel phone consists of usually two, however,sometimes more segments
that swivel past each other about a central axle. Use of the swiveling
form factor has similar goals to that of the slider, but this form
factor is less widely used.
Mixed
Some Blackberry Phone models use both a swivel
and a flip axis, such as the Nokia N90.A version of the slider form
factor, the side slider or QWERTY slider, uses vertical access of the
keyboard on the bottom segment. The side slider form factor is primarily
used to facilitate faster access to the keyboard with both thumbs. It
is convenient very much.
