BlackBerry to launch full touchscreen smartphone in October
NEW DELHI: Canadian smartphone maker BlackBerry recently launched its flagship smartphone KEYOne in India at Rs 39,990. Now, it seems that it is working on another Android smartphone with full touchscreen.
According to a report by Engadget, BlackBerry is working on a full touchscreen Android smartphone which will be launched in October. The news was confirmed by TCL's Francois Mahieu. For those unaware, TCL Communications got exclusive licence to manufacture and sell 'BlackBerry' branded smartphones last year.
The report further suggests that the upcoming BlackBerry smartphone will come with IP67 rating which will make the device water and dust resistant. Along with this, the smartphone will also be backed by a battery which promises to offer 26 hours of backup. The smartphone will also come with all the security features found in KEYOne, DTEK60 and DTEK50.
Earlier this month, BlackBerry launched its KEYOne smartphone in India at Rs 39,990. The device has a 4.5-inch scratch resistant IPS display with full-HD. The Android 7.1 Nougat-based smartphone is powered by a mid-range processor, the Qualcomm Snapdragon 625, clubbed with 4GB RAM and Adreno 506 GPU. It comes with 64GB inbuilt storage, which can be expanded via a microSD card up to 2TB. The US version comes with 3GB RAM and 32GB inbuilt storage.
It sports a 12MP Sony IMX378 sensor, which is said to be the same as that in Google Pixel smartphones. The BlackBerry KEYOne Limited Edition Black is powered by a 3505mAh non-removable battery, which is claimed to be the largest ever battery capacity in a BlackBerry smartphone.
