BlackBerry KEY2 Dual Camera.

Skip to main content



When most of us thought that BlackBerry was out of the game, we were clearly wrong. The BlackBerry KEY2 has just been launched on the success of the KEYone, its predecessor that was released April of 2017. 

BlackBerry’s high-flying market are in for a treat.
According to Alain Lejeune, BlackBerry’s global general manager, the brand has released at least two new smartphone . within the year. Here’s what we have uncovered about the first new device.

Design
The BlackBerry KEY2 remains traditional with its physical QWERTY keyboard, albeit pushed to the bottom of the handset. The keys are noticeably matte and slightly larger than the KEYone keys. The screen is noticeably extended, resulting from the top bezel being slimmer. The screen size will remain the same as the KEYone screen, however it has a 4.5-inch, 1080×1620-pixel screen on this one. The BlackBerry options remain to be the only slim handset with a physical keyboard that doesn’t compromise on the screen size.
While the BlackBerry KEYone was more rounded along the edges, the  images of the BlackBerry KEY2 show that it has more defined edges in its rectangular shape. Similar to the KEYone, the KEY2 has  a Type-C USB port, capacitive keys, and a 3.5mm audio jack.
The rear of the device also looks to be equipped with soft-touch plastic covered in dimples for easy grip.

Specifications
Out of the box, the handset runs on Android 8.1 Oreo. Unlike the KEYone, which had the Snapdragon 625 chipset, the KEY2 is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 660  paired with either a 6 GB RAM or a 4 GB RAM.
It has a dual-band 2.4GHz and 5GHz Wi-Fi. The battery is a minimum of 3,500 mAh.

New features
The BlackBerry KEY2 has a dual-lens camera on its rear panel. This is an exciting new feature as the KEYone only has a single lens unit. The new dual camera is rumored to have 12 MP and 8 MP lenses with impressive dual-toned LED flash. Although BlackBerry is not really known for great cameras, this rumored new feature would certainly be quite the improvement.

Price
Thee KEY2 is predicted to start at around $600. This is a bit more expensive than the BlackBerry KEYone, which sold for $549 when it first debuted.
