It appears there’s a successor to Samsung’s quirky W789 “Hennessy” handset on the way. Chinese certification authority TENAA has published images and other details of the unannounced Samsung “SM-W2014” — another Asia-bound flip phone from the Korean manufacturer. The device, which looks a lot like earlier Samsung forays into the world of “smart” flip phones, packs the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 CPU, 2GB of RAM and dual 3.67-inch, WVGA (480×800) SuperAMOLED screens. There’s also a 13-megapixel rear camera and 2-megapixel front-facer, and interestingly it’s reportedly running the latest Android 4.3 Jelly Bean.
Flip phones won’t be making a comeback in the West anytime soon, and as such we wouldn’t expect to see the W2014 outside of China. Nevertheless, we’re left wondering what exactly a flip phone is going to do with all that horsepower.
