BlackBerry is a particular sort of cellular producer because it depends totally on its proprietary system which nonetheless has its fan base regardless that it has grow to be smaller through the years after Android-based smartphones appeared available on the market. However, on the finish of 2015 the corporate launched its first Android-powered handset referred to as the BlackBerry PRIV, which was a premium smartphone sporting an AMOLED show that has diagonal of 5.four inches and a QHD decision of 2560 x 1440. Furthermore, the BlackBerry PRIV is powered by a Qualcomm made Snapdragon 808 processor, which is poaired with Three GB of RAM, and consists of 32 GB of native storage.
Again then there have been some rumors claiming that the corporate will launch a number of different smartphone this yr, and as time handed the rumors have develop into increasingly more plausible. A few days in the past, the BlackBerry Hamburg aka Neon telephone was listed on the FCC web site, giving us some info in regards to the terminal. We all know that BlackBerry has some connections with Chinese language producer TLC, and judging by the specs of the upcoming BlackBerry Neon, it appears to be some type of reworked Alcatel Idol four which means that the smartphone doesn’t include a keyboard and can rely solely on the touchscreen.
At this time we’ve going to speak about one other BlackBerry branded handset which popped up on Geekbench 3 and it’s listed as BlackBerry Rome. Whereas the BlackBerry PRIV and the BlackBerry Neon go by the mannequin numbers STV100-1 and STH100-2, the BlackBerry Rome goes beneath STV100-Three. In response to the itemizing, the telephone could have an built-in bodily keyboard and a SoC consisting of six CPU cores, which is analogous to the one of many PRIV, however plainly it’s inferior judging by the benchmark scores.
The BlackBerry Neon is powered by a Snapdragon octa-core 600 collection processor (which is perhaps both 615 or 617) which incorporates low efficiency ARM Cortex-A53 cores. The BlackBerry Rome then again, could also be based mostly across the Snapdragon 650 which consists of a quad-core ARM CortexA53s clocked at a velocity of 1.four GHz, and a excessive efficiency twin core cluster Cortex-A72 operating at a most frequency of 1.eight GHz. Nonetheless, we now have to take into accounts the likelihood that the benchmark to be inaccurate and the smartphone may be underpinned by a special processor in any case. Regardless of the chip, the Rome will embrace Three GB of RAM, and will probably be operating Android 6.zero.1 Marshmallow out of the field.
At this level, there are not any additional particulars in regards to the upcoming handset that shall be launched by BlackBerry within the following months like worth tags, colours, when precisely will they be introduced and when will they grow to be out there for buy. Nevertheless, we’re positive that the knowledge will floor ultimately, and when that occurs we’ll inform you all about it as nicely.
