Samsung’s love affair with the flip phone continues up to
this day in some parts of the world. In fact, a new flip phone just passed
TENAA, the telecomm equipment center in China.
The phone which currently runs by the name SM-W2106 is quite
a powerhouse with an octa-core processor, 3GB of RAM and 64GB of storage.
According to the paperwork, the phone will have two 3.9-inch screens (1280 x
768 pixels in terms of resolution) on both sides of the flip segment.
In the camera department, the phone has an 8MP sensor at the
back and a front-facing 5MP snapper. As a flip phone, the device will of course
sport a T9 keypad.
We don’t have much information yet with regards to other
features of the phone but we’ll likely see the device announce initially in
China or Korea.
UPDATE:
The W2016 just got official after the phone appeared on Samsung China's official website. The innards will be composed of an Exynos 7420 chip with 3GB of RAM and 64GB of storage. In contrast to earlier reports, the phone will have a 16MP camera at the back and a 5MP selfie snapper.
Battery is rated at 2000mAh battery and is expected to sell for a jaw-dropping $1,565. The phone will be offered in two color options: grey and gold, and will only be offered (at least initially in China via China Mobile).
