Flip phone out of nowhere

LG has released a flip-phone of their own out of nowhere. And no, this isn’t their equivalent to Samsung’s Galaxy Flip Z – it’s actually and old-school flip phone popularized during the aughts.

The flip phone has a 2.8-inch QVGA primary screen a 0.9-inch monochrome panel for notifications for texts and calls. There’s a 2-megapixel primary camera here, and LG has included an AI voice service as well as a quick-dial button on the back.

This is a relatively simple feature phone though, despite being powered by Snapdragon 210 SoC paired with 1GB of RAM and 8GB of onboard storage.

It’s rather pricey, retailing for KRW198,000 or around 8.2K in our currency.
