Yes, it's a wide angle lens with the following very nice properties:
16mm-50mm equivalent focal length (to 35mm full frame) due to m4/3 2x
Constant f/4 throughout the entire focal range

Is this a wide-angle lens? Quite a short range and not a very wide aperture, but quite expensive

It's kind of weird that you are hiding half the fact. It does equivalent to 16 mm to 50 mm ff focal length, at the same time, about f/8 aperture to a full frame.
is the same reason why you don't think your phone's F/1.6 aperture is that impressive.
Full frame and micro 4/3rds have different aspect ratios. In fact, we should thank them for providing this as supplementary information to make an educated purchase.

No, it cannot be used in that way (and wouldn't be useful even if it could).

No time machine obviously, but a price point for comparison. I bought the 40-150mm reconditioned from Olympus direct for $500 in January. Other than the box that said "reconditioned", you would never know it wasn't new. Might be worth a search if that size interests you.

Good deals on brand new.

Not looking for either of these right now, although I think the 40-150 could be an interesting choice for ski photography. Plenty of light for f4 and you can take wider shots on your iPhone…but the iPhone can't deliver anywhere near as good zoomed in action shots.

Too bad it doesn't have sync IS though.

They didn't leave, they were acquired by OM Digital Solutions who continues to produce their products.
