BlackBerry Mercury (rumor)
You should expect an Android-running BlackBerry with a
physical keyboard to show up at some point in the first quarter of next year.
It's apparently codenamed Mercury, and it might be
the mysterious BlackBerry device with the model number BBB100-1. This would make sense seeing as how we
haven't heard of any other BlackBerry handset currently being in development.
It has a 2 GHz octa-core processor made by Qualcomm, 3GB
of RAM, and it runs Android 7.0 Nougat. The SoC used may be the mid-range
Snapdragon 625 based on the CPU core count and clock speed, but this is just
speculation.
The Mercury has been said to come with a 4.5-inch
Full HD touchscreen with 3:2 aspect ratio, a full physical QWERTY keyboard
underneath that, 32GB of storage, an 18 MP main camera, an 8 MP selfie shooter,
and a 3,400 mAh battery.
