Samsung has launched a new flip-phone with dual screen, created to Korea's elderly people.

Samsung launched its Master range of flip-phones for the elderly in May, and now the company is just about ready with a follow-up.

The new Master Dual's biggest new feature is, unsurprisingly, the addition of a 2.2-inch display above the clamshell that complements the 3-incher that's tucked inside.

In every other respect, its pretty much a basic device, with 3-megapixel primary camera, GPS and 2G radios.

On the upside, it does have a peace-of-mind feature if you're concerned about your folks, since the phone will alert relatives if it hasn't been used in a set period of time.

If you're in Korea and have 300,300 won in your back pocket (around $280) then you can grab one of these from your local branch of SK Telecom.
