| Probably, one of the most well known phones the Motorola StarTAC was a great phone in its time. This was the first true flip phone that utilized both sides of the clam shell design. When the phone is opened up the speaker is at the top of half of the phone and the main section of the phone contains everything else. When you first look at this phone, and I mean to look even at the very first StarTAC it’s hard to believe that a phone this small was out in 1996. Many different StarTAC models came out over the year improving small features over time. Until recently these phones have been sold new in Korea where they were on the market for a longer period than the States. | |
