After churning around the rumor mill, Samsung has finally made this little thing official. Samsung's newest Android smartphone dubbed as the Samsung W789 (Hennessy) is real and seems like to be sold only in China (as of now). The Chinese Samsung website showcases the device and is probably (I'm pretty sure) Samsung's first ever Flip phone that runs on Android. News about the device being sold in other countries is yet to be known and if this device will be displayed during IFA 2013 in Berlin. Anyway, what is important is that the rumors have been true. With regards to specs, I do not have the full list of it but I will just enumerate them as per the Samsung China website.
The flip phone runs on Android 4.1 Jelly Bean and is powered by a 1.2GHz Quad-core processor. It sports 2 displays that are 3.3" HVGA (480x320) TFT touchscreen LCDs. It also has the usual connectivity found in all Androids like GPS, WiFi, Bluetooth, and a USB 2.0 port. The camera on this phone is a 5MP shooter and as expected from a flip phone an alpha-numeric keypad. As for the battery it has 1500 mAh of it.
