The story of Blackberry so far has been from grace to grace to carpet grass. They’ve gone from being one of the largest competitor to certain death and then reborn. They’ve had it very rough and this time around, they are gradually bouncing back to life.
Blackberry Keyone is their latest smartphone announced during the Mobile World Congress this year, and will be officially be available for US and Canada beginning from May 31st while pre-order begins from May 18th.
The BlackBerry KEYone comes with the signature QWERTY keypad slider below the device, which also embeds a fingerprint sensor on the space-bar as well as capacitive touch on the entire keyboard for scrolling. Talking about the specifications, the smartphone sports a 4.5-inch full-HD (1620x1080 pixels) IPS display with a pixel density of 433ppi and Corning Gorilla Glass 4 protection. The all-new BlackBerry KEYone is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 octa-core processor clocked at 2GHz, coupled with 3GB of RAM and an Adreno 506 GPU.
