The Samsung SM-G9198, an Android-powered flip phone running a Snapdragon 808 chipset, is now available in China. The device last month was spotted on TEENA up for certification in China, making many of us curious as to what to expect.

Flip phones have gone the way of the dinosaur in many parts of the world. However, they’re still popular devices in various Asian regions, thus Samsung and LG’s willingness to offer Android-powered flip phones in select markets.

Samsung’s SM-G9198 flip phone features dual 3.9-inch 1280 x 768 Super AMOLED displays Snapdragon 808 processor, 2GB of RAM, a 16-megapixel rear camera, a 6-megapixel front camera, and 16GB of expandable storage. It’s also packing a massive 2,020mAh battery, which is said to last just under 200 hours of standby time.

This is no doubt a powerful flip phone, and it’s very unique, given the specifications and the included two displays. However, this isn’t the only flip phone Samsung has brought to the Asian market. In fact, LG launched its own recently as well.
