Flap fully extended. The button at the side center is used to open the flip, among other functions.

Notice how you can see the top of the "Yes" and "No" buttons? Some users managed to press them. Personally, I think that the small round logo and speaker holes mess up the design. And notice the... SCRATCH?!
