Samsung A237 (or SGH-A237), a new flip phone, will be soon offered by AT&T.
The new A237 is an affordable handset that does not come with too many features.
No details of its official specs have been announced yet, nor about its price and release date.
Anyway, there are some pictures of Samsung A237, so we can see that it is a clamshell which resembles lots of other previously-launched Samsung flip phones. It has a small interal display, and a smaller one on the outside, but the number of colors and resolution are not known. Furthermore, the handset also has a photo camera, which probably doesn’t have more than 1.3 Megapixels.
