Why do anime characters only have flip phones in modern anime

why do anime characters only have flip phones in modern anime

Apple is foreign
Its never good to advertise gaijin pig products even if it ends up being unrealistic
So even if 99% of japs have iphones anime will keep the flip phones, deal with it

Because Koreans and Japanese prefer physical buttons. (I personally want slider phones to come back)
If you think their flip phones have worse characteristics than modern smartphones you are wrong.

Because most source material is old as fuck and when it started, flip phones were still popular.

Because flip phones are great.

It changes with the times.

Because you don't watch many anime.

...

it's funny because literally 9/10 in japan uses Iphones

It's either flip or iPhone, shit even dragon maiden uses iPhone

Why does OP think that pre-2010's anime is a representative of modern anime?

Are you a Keit-ai meme spammer?

Because they are probably drug dealers

That's from seiren, 2017

Source material.

For example take 'Index'
Toma uses a flip phone because that's what he used in the source material.
While satan uses a smartphone because they never specified what she uses and hence could use a up to date model in the anime.

fpbp

I dunno, something to do with marketing?

What is this flip phone are you talking about?

user do you realize that seiren is set in 2003?

Flip phones are great, that's why.

Because the people who make anime are in their 40s

Girlish number had smartphones. You are probably looking at some modern anime with old source material.

Don't forget about Kuroko's "phone."

Japan still uses Pentium II with windows 2000 installed, so they'll still use flip phones.

>Kamen Rider OOO shilled iPhones and iPads
>also had some good moments with footage of the villains being put on Youtube and them lamenting how humans have got crafty over the last thousand years or so

The phone is ten times bigger than her hand

Its not only Apple who are producing smartphones user

Search "Gara-Kei" my friend

Japanese people made a fashion out of flip phones and even now that smartphones are like 99.5% of the phone sales, they think it's fashionable.

I prefer flip phones to any other kind of phone. They are cute and let me contact another dimensions.

Because smartphones only recently became popular in Japan and it's still relatively common to see them.

Them being flip phones, I mean.

because smartphones are ugly as sin

what the fuck is that? a thermometer?

flip phones have more comedy potential
also cute girls can attach cute charms to them and stuff

it's a pager

>9/10 using apple products

two nukes weren't enough.

KEIT-AI the animation's MCs use iphone.
