Canadians, do you have June 7th marked off on your calendars?
This is the date that BlackBerry Mobile (TCL Communication) will reveal the successor to the BlackBerry KEYone, the BlackBerry KEY2. The Android-powered smartphone will once again bring back the physical QWERTY keyboard and is also rumoured to feature a 4.5-inch 1080 x 1620 pixel display, a Snapdragon 660 processor, dual rear-camera setup, with 12-megapixel and 8-megapixel sensors, 6GB of RAM, and 64GB of internal storage.
A new teaser video shows off the design, confirms the dual-camera, and shows off anew keyboard button that might be used for two-factor authentication, quick-access to multitasking or a possible app launcher.
