First Ever! Samsung launches Flip Phone with Dual Camera!

    For the very first time ever since the introduction of the South Korean Company, Samsung Mobile just launched a Flip Phone with code name as: Samsung SM-G9298!

    From the front aspect, the Samsung SM-G9298 could pass for either Galaxy S8 or Galaxy S7 Edge but this is only possible when you doesn’t flip the phone over.

    It is very surprising to see Flip phone in this 21st century, especially in 2017! That model of phone has long gone since the past years. Anyway, Samsung isn’t backing down.

    Key Features

    *. Display: Two 4.2-inch full HD Super AMOLED display
    *. Battery: 2300mAh battery capacity
    *. RAM: 4GB
    *. Fast Charging: Yes
    *. Fingerprint Scanner: Yes
    *. Processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon 821 processor
    *. Memory: 64GB storage
    *. Camera: 12-megapixel rear camera and 5-megapixel front camera.

    This year’s SM-G9298 also goes by the name “Leader” by the way and considering that not many major companies are still into flip phones, chances are, this could well be the last of its kind. Truth be told, unless Samsung brings out one more in the future.

    Price and Availability
