AT&T recently released a brand new clamshell
phone aimed at users who simply don't need a smartphone. Called
Cingular Flip 2, the handset is a rebranded Alcatel Go Flip, and succeeds a Cingular Flip introduced by AT&T
back in 2016.
The AT&T Cingular Flip 2 features a large
physical keypad, a 2.8-inch internal display with 240 x 320 pixels, and a
smaller external screen of unknown resolution - good for peeking at
notifications without flipping the phone open.
The new clamshell is powered by a quad-core Qualcomm
Snapdragon 210 processor, and lets users connect to the internet via both LTE,
and Wi-Fi. Other features include HD Voice, A-GPS, FM Radio, 4 GB of on-board
storage space, microSD card support, and a 1350 mAh battery. There's also a 2
MP camera on board (with 720p video recording).
AT&T is selling the Cingular Flip 2 for US$ 59.99,
though you'll also have to pay a US$ 25 activation fee to use the phone.
