Galaxy Folder 2 flip phone stops by the FCC with 2,000mAh battery

Samsung is probably the only mainstream smartphone manufacturer that’s still making flip phones. We found out a month ago that the company is testing a new flip phone – the Galaxy Folder 2 – and that it’s going to have a 3.8-inch display. Alleged specifications of this handset were later spotted online and now it has stopped by the FCC, the filing documents reveal that this flip phone has a 2,000mAh battery.

The Galaxy Folder 2 (SM-G1600) is expected to have a 3.8-inch 800 x 480 pixel resolution display, a 1.4GHz Qualcomm processor with 2GB RAM and 8GB of internal storage. It may also have an 8-megapixel rear and 5-megapixel front camera. The Galaxy Folder 2 is expected to run Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow straight out of the box.  The FCC pit stop for this device suggests that it may not be long for the handset to break cover after certification is granted. The filing clearly indicates that it has a 2,000mAh battery which should prove enough for a smartphone of this calibre. Samsung has not yet confirmed when the Galaxy Folder 2 is going to be out and how much it’s going to cost but it’s likely that the handset will be launched in China first before it makes its way to South Korea.
