Blackberry Key2 to arrive with 4GB RAM and Dual Cam
Ahead of the launching date June 7, the company has released a video teaser that showcases some of the Blackberry Key2 specs. (Click HERE to watch). The teaser starts with the company’s logo and a new soft-grip pattern on the rear. It appears that this grippy decoration will be embellished all over the back of the phone as we see the same pattern around a dual camera goes along with a dual-LED flash. Next, we can see a full arrangement of physical buttons on the right side of the phone. From there, we see a closeup of the keyboard, which features a new button whose function we haven’t figured out yet.
It includes a 3 x 3 grid of dots symbol, which leads us to think of various functions. Perhaps a single press of the key can show you the App drawer; while a long-press might work for a shortcut to the BlackBerry Hub. Besides, this device preview is very much in line with the TENAA filing we saw a few weeks ago of the BlackBerry Athena. If that’s what the case, we already got hold of its specs for you. Regarding the display, BlackBerry Athena specs include a 4.5-inch IPS LCD with a resolution of 1620 x 1080 pixels.
Meanwhile, as per the listing, this phone gets power from the Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 chipset with Adreno 512 GPU, along with 4GB RAM and 64GB ROM (expandable up to 256GB). Besides that, the upcoming BlackBerry handset runs on Android 8.1 Oreo as the operating system. Moreover, in terms of the optics, the BlackBerry Athena camera system packs a dual 12MP + 8MP snapper on the back with phase detection autofocus and dual-LED dual-tone flash. Besides that, the front-facing shooter sports 8MP with an aperture of f/2.0. Lastly, this device rocks a non-removable Li-Ion 3360mAh battery box.
