LG Gentle: a flip to the past with 3.2 inch display and 1GB RAM
A decade ago, flip phones were still the trend and many people were crazy for one. As time flies and smart phones with touch screen are more and more advanced, the appearance of flip phones lessen and lessen. However, to many people, the flip phones are still the best experience ever with a communicating device. LG, the company that hails from Korea, revives the almost dying form of mobile phones by releasing LG Gentle.
LG Gentle – Lg’s new project which targets the older customers much more reminiscent of things from the past decade – is completely an innovation. With the design of the past, LG Gentle gives many memories about the once crazed flip phones.
LG Gentle gives a very nostalgic feeling of the past
Apart from the flip design, LG Gentle also has decent specs as it is actually a smart phone. The device has a 3.2 inch display with the resolution of 320 x 480 p, which is very good considering its flip form. Snapdragon 210 quad core 1.1GHz processor and a 1GB RAM power up the device. Moreover, with 4GB internal storage and microSd support, LG Gentle is appealing enough to most people.
To give it a more realistic touch of current smart phones, Android 5. 1 Lollipop is the operating system. The user interface and app store from Google Play will keep you entertained at all times. Moreover, LG Gentle has a main camera of 3MP, no flash though, and a VGA front camera. It houses a battery of 1700mAh, which is great for a flip phone.
The phone supports 4G LTE, WiFi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, GPS and many more. Weighing around 143g, this is perfect for a flip phone.
However, the phone is currently only available in Korea for purchase. It seems you can only get this with $120 if you live there.
