The most recent BlackBerry telephone has arrived and it has a physical console.
TCL, the Chinese hardware organization that makes BlackBerry telephones, on Thursday reported another premium cell phone called the BlackBerry Key2, which includes a double camera, an about edge-to-edge show, and, obviously, a console.
The BlackBerry Key2 is planned to be a refresh to a year ago’s BlackBerry KeyOne, and there are some updated specs and highlights. The camera is better, the console is greater, and it’s more slender and lighter than a year ago’s model.
The BlackBerry Key2 comes in all-black …
It has a 4.5-inch LCD display above a full physical keyboard.
The BlackBerry Key2 has a larger screen than its predecessor. The “forehead” of the phone is now 25% smaller, and the device has a nearly edge-to-edge display.
The BlackBerry Key2 has an aluminum frame and a “soft touch” back, which should make it easier to grip.
There’s a new key on the keyboard, too: the Speed Key, which is located next to the “symbol” button.
The Speed Key is a dedicated shortcut key that lets you quickly switch to a different app. To use it, hold down the Speed Key and press the letter you assigned to an app — like “I” for Instagram or “T” for Twitter.
The keyboard’s space bar is also a fingerprint sensor.
The BlackBerry Key2 has a 12-megapixel dual camera on the back. The camera has portrait mode, optical zoom, and multi-frame capture.
The camera also has Google Lens built in, which means you can use Google’s visual search engine without having to download a separate app.
There’s also an 8-megapixel camera on the front. The phone’s screen can be used as a selfie flash.
There are two storage options: 64-GB or 128-GB.
The BlackBerry Key 2 has USB-C charging. It may seem like there’s no headphone jack …
But that’s because it’s on the top of the phone
The BlackBerry Key2 will start at $649 and be available for preorder in seven countries including the US — starting later this month.
