Blackberry KEYone (Black Edition BBB100-2 4GB RAM 64GB 4G LTE)
Blackberry KEYone (Black Edition BBB100-2 4GB RAM 64GB 4G LTE) is a 2017-released QWERTY Android smartphone. It brings back the iconic design of the Canadian device maker. It features a 35-key Smart Keypad on the front which looks just like a miniature PC keyboard. The keypad allows quick and easy typing for work related operations such as emails and document edits. The physical keypad works well with the UI to auto correct mistakes based on context, predicts words (for flick typing) and personalizes according your preferences as you use it. The handset boasts a compact 4.5-inch scratch resistant IPS LCD with a Full HD resolution. The screen, which comes coated with Corning Gorilla Glass 4, is perfect for one hand usage and is intended for professional use for executives and those who require a smartphone for work related communication.
A great feature of this impressive smartphone is shortcuts. You can easily program each key of the Smart Keypad to be associated with an action, such as pressing B key to open a browser or C to open camera etc. The possibilities are endless and totally customizable based on your requirements. Another noticeable feature is its mammoth 3505mAh rechargeable battery which not only lasts longer than any other BlackBerry battery (owing to its greater capacity), but also allows Quick Charge 3.0 which can give a 50-percent charge in just 36 minutes. BlackBerry has a legendary reputation so far as security features are concerned and the KEYone does not disappoint. It comes with DTEK security monitoring app for best-in-class monthly Android security updates.
The phone runs on a super powerful Octa Core CPU housed on Snapdragon 625 SoC with 2.0GHz processors, 64-bit Adreno 506 GPU and 4GB RAM. 64GB internal storage is provided which has Android OS v7.1 (Nougat) pre-installed with full access to Google Play Store.
