Samsung recently announced the GT-B9120 smartphone in China. What’s interesting about this particular device is that it combines the classic flip phone form factor with a modern mobile operating system in Android. When the clamshell hardware is closed, it looks like any other Android handset with a touchscreen display on the front and capacitive buttons along the bottom. However, when you pry the phone open, it’s like traveling back in time when the numeric keypad and secondary display are suddenly revealed. The GT-B9120 sports dual 3.5-inch WVGA (480×800) touchscreen AMOLED displays (inside and outside), a Qualcomm MSM8260 1.2GHz dual-core processor, 5 megapixel rear camera, 1.3 megapixel front-facing camera, 1GB of RAM, 16GB of internal storage, HSPA/WiFi connectivity, GPS, Bluetooth, and Android 2.3 Gingerbread. Unfortunately, there’s still no word on pricing or availability for folks in China. It’s unlikely that we’ll ever see this come stateside.
