TCL Launches Flip Phones for Prepaid Verizon, T-Mobile Plans

TCL Mobile’s Flip Pro is available on Verizon Prepaid ($69), and the Alcatel Go Flip 4 is available on T-Mobile ($4 a month for 24 months) and Metro by T-Mobile ($99), TCL emailed Thursday. Both phones are based on the Linux-based KaiOS 3.0 mobile operating system, which can navigate Google apps including Gmail, Maps and Search. An external 1.44-inch display gives users a preview of who’s calling without having to open the phone, said the company. Battery life starts at 14 days on standby.
