My first phone was this “dual flip” Samsung U740 (I don’t remember the model number, I just looked up “dual flip”). It could be used like a normal phone when talking, but you could also open it sideways to text and use a QWERTY keyboard. I could easily text without looking, I loved it.

After that I had some moto droid with a slide out keyboard, but it was bigger and less comfortable to use.

Samsung Alias! Pretty cool idea. Not sure how great the execution was though. The Alias 2 that came after it had the same form factor but with e-ink keys

Interesting! I'm not sure how I have never heard of that. It sure looks cool.
