Android-powered flip phones are nothing new in the mobile world, with Samsung having launched several such devices in the past. Today we’re mixing things up a bit, though, with a new Android flip from the Life’s Good crew.

The LG Wine Smart is an Android 4.4 KitKat smartphone with a flip phone form factor. The device is targeted at elderly mobile users that are more comfortable with a flip phone design and set of physical buttons rather than a large touchscreen. The Smart Wine also includes a high-powered speaker and an unused phone notification that’ll automatically send out the device’s location information when the phone goes unused for an extended period of time.

In terms of straight-up specs, the LG Wine Smart has the following features to offer:

• 3.5-inch 480x320 LCD screen
• 1.2GHz quad-core processor
• 8-megapixel rear, VGA front cameras
• 4GB of storage
• microSD card slot
• 1GB of RAM
• 4G LTE connectivity
• FM radio
• 1700mAh removable battery
• Android 4.4 KitKat

While the slab form factor is by far the dominant design in the smartphone world, some folks out there still prefer flip phones. That design has been around for quite a while and it’s likely less intimidating to some people than a device that’s all screen.
