Canadian smartphone manufacturer BlackBerry is getting ready to release a new smartphone on the market, they are calling it Passport. It should be announced sometimes next month.
If someone told me last year that BalckBerry would still be alive and not only alive but also getting ready to release a new smartphone, I wouldn't believed it. Let's face it almost nobody would believe it. Even after all that financial trouble they are still here. Don't get me wrong financial troubles are still there but the company didn't sell into pieces as analyst expected, so give the Canadians some credit for that.
New smartphone isn't officially announced, these are still just leaks and rumors. Design you see on the photo could be the final design but it could get some changes before the launch. Smartphone will have 4.5 inches display with Gorilla Glass 3 protection. Procesor will be Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 Quad-core 2.26 GHz with 3 GB RAM. Internal storage will be 32 GB and microSD card slot up to 64 GB. Camera on the back will be 13 MP and on the front 2 MP. Operating system is BlackBerry OS 10.3.
Looks like Canadians still have faith in their BlackBerry OS, they haven't switched to Android or Windows Phone for their operating systems, who knows they may even surprise us all. As far as the specifications this isn't a bad phone, actually its a pretty good one and the design is also nice. Of course this doesn't mean that the smarphone will have market success, there were a lot of smartphones out there with great hardware and design that failed to become popular on the market.
Could this smartphone be a turning point for the company, well that isn't likely. But hey the fact that they are still alive and in business is a miracle on it's own so don't rule them out just yet.
