Sneak-peek at BlackBerry’s next Phone

 

 

For those of you that thought BlackBerry was In Justin Timberlake’s Voice Dead and gone, well think again because rumour has it that BlackBerry is preparing to launch a new mid-range phone.

It’s called the BlackBerry Motion, and while other smartphones (copy iPhone) are going the “bezel-less” route, the bezel on this Blackberry is huge!

Although, it’s not really that important for a business-oriented device, but the BlackBerry Motion will look dated compared to many of the Androids that came out this year.

The phone (originally codenamed Krypton) is rumored to be a mid-ranger, with a Snapdragon 625 or 626 CPU, 4GB of RAM, a full HD display, IP67 water- and dust-resistance, a fingerprint sensor built into the home button, and a generous 4,000mAh battery.

The leaked press render also shows that the Motion will have a USB-C connector and a headphone jack, which is becoming a rare sight these days.

BlackBerry, who has China’s TLC building their phones for them, has experienced somewhat of a resurgence since it launched the well-received BlackBerry KEYone in the spring.
