I wonder is it possible to have 50% smooth shading and 50% flat shading in blender cycles, applied to an created mesh?

enter image description here enter image description here

The 1st image has a smooth shading on it and the 2nd has flat shading , is it possible to have 50% smooth shading and 50% flat shading? or 30% smooth and 70% flat?

You can choose which parts of your model are flat or smooth shaded from the W specials menu. Make a selection of faces and choose Shade Smooth or Shade Flat depending on what you want to achieve.

    $\begingroup$ Just to clarify you can set smooth or flat shading per face, but there is no middle ground, it is either one or the other. $\endgroup$

Yes it is posible to create this as an effect. Apply a smooth shade to the material then add 2 sub surf modifiers like the image below.note how the sub surf modifiers are set
