Leaked BlackBerry Venice render Shows How The upcoming Android Slider Will Look Like.
It is no surprise that BlackBerry is working on a
slider device that packs a dual edged display. This
is the same great display that we’ve seen on the
Samsung Galaxy S6 and for obvious reasons, it
immediately piqued our interest in the device.
More importantly, it is believed that this will be the
first Android running handset from the company
that has historically stuck to their roots and
marched on with various iterations of the not so
stunning BlackBerry OS.
With today’s leak, it appears that the Android
running handset might not be all that far off. Evan
Blass ( @evleaks) has a stellar reputation when it
comes to device leaks and today’s render gives us
our first proper glance at the handset. The phone
is believed to incorporate a slide out keyboard
which is something unheard of on a modern
Android handset. We can see a microUSB
connector at the bottom as well as a 3.5mm audio
jack in addition to what appears a rather gigantic
speaker grille.
The render ties in quite well with the single
glimpse of the handset that we caught way back
at MWC. Back then, the handset was running
BlackBerry OS 10 but today’s render lends further
credence to rumors that the phone will be powered
by Android and will have Google Apps on board as
well which is a welcome relief to anyone who was
dreading a Fire OS like Android experience. All said
and done, our own sources have confirmed that we
should be hearing a lot more about the handset in
the 3rd Quarter of this year which has just begun.
We sure are intrigued by BlackBerry and their
effort to create what could possibly be the most
unique Android handset at the moment and can’t
wait to get some more official information about
the device.
