Flip Phone with Two 720p Displays and 4GB RAM: Gionee W909
BENGALURU: If one display is not enough for you, you can have two. As expected, Gionee has launched its W909 clamshell Android smartphone in China. Priced at CNY 3,999 (roughly 
41,000), the handset is already up for pre-orders in the country. Its availability details outside China have not yet been mentioned. The device features two 4.2-inch 720p displays, one inside, the other outside. Both screens are expected to be identical IPS panels.
The power of the phone comes from MediaTek Helios P10 chip and comes with 4GB of RAM. This phone also gives you 64GB of internal storage and there’s support for 128GB microSD cards. The device uses Gionee’s Amigo UI on top of Android 5.1 and, features a 16MP rear camera.
It is worth mentioning that the Gionee W909 is also arguably one of the first flip phones in the market to come with a fingerprint sensor, USB Type-C port, and dual touchscreens as well. It sports a metal build and houses some high-end specifications under-the-hood.
On the connectivity front, this new flip phone supports 4G LTE networks, along with Bluetooth v4.0, GPS, Wi-Fi, and USB Type-C connectivity. Powered by a 2530mAh battery, the W909 on paper can deliver up to 29.7 hours of talk time and 408 hours of standby time. It measures 124.1x62.8x16.5mm, weighs 207 grams, and features a fingerprint sensor at the back that can unlock the handset in 0.38 seconds.
Since the Gionee W909 carries a flip phone design, it also has T9 keypad with physical buttons to navigate, launch the camera and more, besides having an on-screen keyboard. It is only available in Rose and Gold color variant.
The last flip phone by a popular tech giant was introduced by Samsung in November last year as it launched the W2016 smartphone in China. The Android-based dual-SIM smartphone features two 3.9-inch Super Amoled touchscreens, both with WXGA (768x1280 pixels) resolution.
