LG has quickly introduced a follow-up to the Wine Smart. The tech giant has recently revealed the Wine Smart Jazz in South Korea—continuing the smartphone flip phone game. Yup, clamshell phones are making a comeback not just as simple talk-and-text phones but as real smartphones powered by Android.
LG has been releasing a number of flip phones already the past few years and this new Wine Smart Jazz is proof that such design is selling. The first flip style smartphone released last year was the Wine Smart followed by the Ice Cream Smart and the LG Gentle.
The new LG Wine Smart Jazz comes equipped with 3.2-inch screen with 320 x 480 pixel resolution, 1.1GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 210 SoC, Adreno 304 GPU, 4GB internal storage, 1GB RAM, microSD card slot, 3MP main camera, 0.3MP front-facing cam, 4G LTE, and a 1700 mAh battery. Phone runs Android 5.1.1 Lollipop out of the box and will be coming to SKT and KT mobile networks on South Korea.
This is actually an upgraded version of the Wine Smart released by LG U+ a few months ago. The Wine Smart Jazz is the version that’s being released to other mobile carriers with a 242,000 won price tag which is about $205.
