There isn’t much that we don’t already know about Samsung’s new Galaxy Folder 2, after the large number of leaks that appeared over the last month. Still, the handset is finally here, offering up something new for what remains of the flip-phone crowd.

The hardware specifications are nothing to write home about, but modern flip phones have never been about the latest and greatest pieces of tech. The phone does however offer Android Marshmallow out of the box, and comes with a reasonable looking camera configuration.

The Galaxy Folder 2 is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 425 processor and 2GB of RAM. There’s also 16GB of internal storage combined with a microSD card that supports 128GB of additional space. The phone features a 3.8-inch TFT LCD display with a WVGA (800×480) resolution. There’s also a 1950mAh battery, a 5 megapixel front facing camera, and an 8 megapixel rear camera.

It’s highly unlikely that we will see the Galaxy Folder 2 ship outside of China, but the company hasn’t announced any regional or pricing details just yet. Still, would you buy one if you had the chance?
