The BlackBerry KEYone was one of the last year
surprises from BlackBerry. The handset carried a build that took a glimpse of
the company’s past, featuring a QUERTY keyboard and packing a good battery, the
handset was well received by the community.
Despite the fact that the KEYone managed to sell
only 900,000 units around the world, BlackBerry considered it a success. Well,
we should agree with the company, since achieving a nearly 1 million amount of
the shipments is something remarkable for a company that was on the verge of
demise. The KEYone was available in 50 countries and through 110 carriers.
Apparently, the company is aiming to introduce a new
successor to its most successful device since the Android-switch. The first
rumors of KEYone 2 appeared in the last year when some documentation suggesting
that the handset would pack Snapdragon 845 appeared online, but today those
rumors will breathe a new fresh air.
Through two websites, one from Amazon and another
from Skinomi, known skin’s retailer, a set of screen protectors and skins
appeared online and with pricing. Both accessories belong to no other device
than the upcoming BlackBerry KEYone Two. We have a carbon fiber skin, Light
Wood skin, Brushed Steel skin and more.
Sadly, no additional info for the KEYone 2 was
revealed through these leaks. Would be awesome if the screen protectors
described the size of the new panel, considering that the KEYone packs a
4.5-inch display we are curious to see if BlackBerry would employ a big panel
on the KEYone 2. For now, all the speculations remains the same, the KEYone two
should bring a better processor, a bigger battery and more features for the
QUERTY keyboard.
