MORE THAN JUST A NOSTALGIA RUSH

This new flip phone created by Samsung is more than just an epic nostalgia rush for anyone who remembers how cool flip phones were back in the day. This is reportedly going to rival the hardware of any current gen smartphone. According to details, this phone is being named the SM-W2016, will have two screens, will have an octa-core 64-bit processor with 3 gigabytes of RAM and 64 gigabytes of hard drive storage. This new flip phone with its reported glass and metal design will apparently be reminiscent of the Galaxy S6. Samsung must have their reasons for deciding to create a phone that has not been popular in a long time. Maybe to give the world a breath of fresh air and give fans of the 90’s and 2000’s a huge nostalgia rush. However, if Samsung can make this new flip phone popular and successful then flip phones could actually make a comeback.
