If you thought smartphones and tablets ushered in the death of flip phones, you may have thought wrong. LG is bringing old fashion back with a Lollipop-powered flip phone, the LG Gentle, aimed for the South Korean market.

The Gentle features a 3.2-inch 480 x 320 LCD touch display, a 1.1GHz processor, 1GB of RAM, 4GB of internal storage, expandable via a microSD slot, LTE connectivity, and a 1700mAh battery. On the software side of things, it's running Android 5.1.

LG hasn't shared any plans to release the device in anything but the South Korean market, and in all honesty, it probably wouldn't be economical for LG to go any further than that.
