Samsung working on new flip phone with a few impressive specs
According to Forbes, Samsung has redesigned its premium smartphones and split its smartphone and phablet release into two, all in one year. Samsung chose to not to ignore these Flip phones and has given them a a go.
Stars such as Rihanna and Vogue’s Anna Wintour have been pictured with the gadgets in recent months – and tech analysts Gartner predict there could be a comeback in Western Europe soon.
The smartphone was officially introduced in China and carries model number “SM-J3109”.
If a flip phone is something you’ve been craving then panic not, because Samsung’s holding nothing back with its foray into the past.
It is very much possible that Samsung may make certain changes to its Marshmallow update rollout plan, as we have seen with this new updated roadmap.
Design wise, it essentially looks like a flip version of the Galaxy S6, made with glass and metal.
Samsung W2016 boasts an impressive 16-megapixel rear-facing camera that features autofocus, OIS (optical image stabilization), f/1.9 aperture, LED flash and 4K video recording.
The company appears to be working on a full-on flip phone, early images and specs of which were discovered by SamMobile.
As for detailed specifications, the Galaxy J3 features a 5-inch HD (720×1280 pixels) Super Amoled display. Japan alone had a skyrocketing demand for this phone type reaching 10.6 million units shipped just a year ago. Everyone is wondering what the Galaxy S7 will have to offer its new users, and this is what is known about the Samsung Galaxy S7 Release Date, Specs, and Rumors.
The Samsung SM-W2016 though doesn’t support a QUERTY keyboard instead it uses a retro T9 style keypad below the inner screen. The other reason is that many celebrities are starting to adopt flip phones again because they can’t be hacked like smartphones can.
Recently LG revealed its flip phone called the LG Wine Smart, which features a 3.2-inch colour touchscreen and runs on Android Lollipop 5.1.
