"By adding key features like Google Assistant, the GO FLIP 3 and SMARTFLIP remind us that flip phones are not a relic of the past, but continue to serve as a viable and essential mobile device that keeps millions of people connected with their friends and family."

Google at Your Service

With the touch of a button, you can activate Google Assistant, a voice-enabled service that allows you to get things done quickly. On the Alcatel GO FLIP 3 and SMARTFLIP, this includes tasks like making calls, dictating texts, opening apps, searching for directions and managing several other tasks just by using your voice. You can also watch YouTube videos and access Google Maps using a convenient shortcut.
