LG Flip Phone Wine Smart Combines the Familiarity of a Folder Phone with an Easy-To-Use Touchscreen

The new sleek LG hybrid smartphone Wine Smart is designed especially for a generation of users who are more accustomed to the feel of flip ― also known as folder or clamshell ― phones. The LG Wine Smart combines the familiarity of a folder phone with an easy-to-use touchscreen and the connectivity and power of a smartphone. Thanks to the positive response to the original Wine Smart introduced in Korea last year, LG optimized the latest model with more advanced multimedia features to make the transition from feature phone to smartphone as seamless as possible.

The new LG Wine Smart is powered by Android Lollipop 5.1.1 to run the latest apps. The new LG Wine Smart for flip phone fans comes with a large physical 3×4 numeric keypad for easy and accurate typing and hotkeys that provide instant access to frequently used features such as phone dialer, address book, text messages or camera. Larger-than-normal icons take full advantage of the 3×3 home screen layout on the crisp 3.2-inch HVGA display. LG’s Safety Care feature can be set to automatically transmit emergency alerts and real-time location to pre-selected contacts whenever the user needs immediate assistance.

Originally announced in the domestic Korean market as LG Gentle, the all-new LG Wine Smart will make its international debut later this month in target countries including France, Italy, Poland, Spain, Kazakhstan, Japan and the United Kingdom.Prices and carrier details will be announced locally at the time of launch.
