News & Reviews:   Samsung Hennessey

The other rumoured Samsung flip-phone, the Samsung Galaxy Golden has recently been officially released in South Korea. Featuring dual 3.7-inch Super AMOLED screens with a physical keypad the Samsung Galaxy Golden will be sold for KRW790000 (RM2332) which is quite high considering the other tech specs. These tech specs include a 1.7GHz dual-core processor, FM Radio, 8MP camera, a pedometer and various S features. No news when it would be available here in Malaysia or for how much but we're guessing that this could be a Korea only release. However, if you're pining for the flip-phone form factor there's always the Samsung Hennessey.

Offering a device for every niche in the market, Samsung has officially anounced the dual-screen Samsung Hennessey in China, effectively ressurecting the flip-phone or clamshell phone form factor that used to be all the rage (before smartphones hit the scene). The announcement confirms tech specs for the Samsung Hennessey which include:

• 1.2GHz quad-core processor
• 2x 3.3-inch touch displays (320x480 resolution)
• 1GB of RAM
• 5MP rear camera (LED flash)
• Supports dual-SIM + tri-band GSM + dual-band CDMA
• 110.85 x 59.3 x 18.62mm | 208g
• 1500 mAh battery
• Android 4.1 Jelly Bean
