A new BlackBerry smartphone code-named ‘Ghost’ has
surfaced online, thanks to @evleaks who also says that the Android smartphone
will have a bezel-less display and will be a premium smartphone. The image
shows a sleek smartphone with a metal frame, cured corners, SIM slot and
antenna cutouts present on the side. It also shows a front-facing camera and an
earpiece above the display.
The phone is said to launch in India soon and will
be made by Optiemus Infracom, who also designed, manufactured and sold last
year’s BlackBerry KEYone in India as well as Nepal, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh.
Even though we had seen BlackBerry smartphones
code-named Athena, Luna, and Uni recently, the new ‘Ghost’ handset is completely new that we
have not heard before, so we don’t have any specifications yet. Looking at the
image, it looks like it will have a large screen with a size of about 6-inches.
Since it will be a premium smartphone, we can expect dual rear cameras and a
powerful processor.
The phone will be released this Summer, which could
be sometime in June or July. The phone is said to feature dual rear cameras
with optical zoom, and low-light enhancement powered by dual rear cameras.
