Before the advent of smartphones, clamshell phones, as they were commonly called, made up a significant part of device sales on the market. Rare was the company that did not have a telephone of this type. Motorola was one of the companies that was most successful in the market with the Motorola Razr V3, a true best seller due to the small dimensions that the terminal offered us together with the quality of the finishes. But as we all know that time has passed and shell telephones fell into oblivion. Some other Japanese manufacturer has continued to launch this type of terminal only in the Japanese market, a very special market as we all know and where this type of device continues to be in demand.
Samsung has been in a clamshell phone for a while that we've really known little about until today, new images of the terminal have been leaked. This terminal, as we can see in the specifications, will be a mid-range terminal and will be available in black, silver and gold. This device will hit the market with the following specifications:
- 3,8 screen inches
- 800 x 480 pixel resolution.
- 425GHz quad-core Snapdragon 1,4 SoC.
- 2 GB of RAM.
- 16 GB of storage capacity expandable with microSD cards.
- 1.950 mAh battery.
- 8 mpx rear cameras and 5 mpx front cameras.
- Measurements: 122 x 60.2 x 15.5 mm
- Weight: 155 grams.
- Android 6.0.1.
At the moment we know which will be the market where this new shell type terminal will be destined, but most likely it is only intended for the Asian market, where today these types of terminals are still in demand. So if you are a lover of this type of phone, you are going to have to hit your teeth or try to get it through the internet, because there is no news that confirms its possible exit from the Asian market.
