YOGYAKARTA The old folding cellphone has been eyed again by Gen Z. The unique phone trend re-emerged after several TikTok social media users made videos showing folding cell phones.

One of the influencers who enlivened the old HP trend was musician Camila Cabello. Through a video he uploaded on his social media, Camilia Cabello was seen using a TCL-branded foldable phone and had taken some styles while holding an old phone and uploading it on her personal Twitter account, @Camila_Cabello.

The same thing was done by actress Dove Cameron, who appears to be using a 90s Matrix foldable phone. He deliberately used the phone to reduce cell phone exposure and reduce the use of social media which had a bad effect on him.

Cameron assessed that social media was disturbing him and to avoid the annoyance he turned to an old foldable cellphone. Cameron's move to a foldable old phone for his personal health was followed by another Gen Z. This is where the old phone trend resurfaced in the era of sophisticated mobile phones with various luxury features.

Old foldable phones have indeed been popular. Even in Indonesia, many old foldable phones can still be found on the market. Although the technology applied is very far behind, the unique old foldable phone shape could be one of the entertaining collectibles.

In the 2000s there were many foldable phones such as flips, clampshells, and so on. But the foldable phone trend is starting to be abandoned today. Although some companies again present folding types like the Samsung Z Fold, or Apple, which is likely to launch two folding iPhone models in 2023, the older foldable phone is still favored because of its special shape. Here are some cellphones that deserve to be used as collectibles.

The Motorola Razr V3 was launched in 2004 and had gained success in 2006 because at that time the units sold reached 50 million units. The Motorola Razr V3 is also considered an inspiring trendsetter fashion phone. This phone has an internal memory of 5.5 MB. This phone also has two cameras, namely the front and rear cameras. The Lazr V3 motorola can be a collection phone that deserves it.

Samsung also has many flip phone phones in the past, one of which is the Gusto 3 type. This phone is a little more modern because it has a TFT screen with a thick screen color. In addition, the phone has a fairly accurate web browser and GPS navigation. Equipped with a 1.3 megapixel camera and camera player, Samsung Gusto 3 could be one of your old collections of cellphones.

You should consider Nokia 6800 as part of the collection because the shape of this phone is very unique and different from other foldable phones. The flip on this phone is located on a keypad so that when the phone is opened, the keypad will change its qwerty format. The phone, which was released in 2003, has a screen resolution of 128 x 128 pixels but is not equipped with a camera.
