Earlier there were rumours surrounding a BlackBerry Android smartphone called the Krypton. According to Blass, Krypton was the internal codename for the device and will be launched as BlackBerry Motion.
The BlackBerry Motion is another all-touchscreen handset from the company. As per the partnership, Chinese firm TCL will design and manufacture the device. The device is also said to pack an IP67 rating and up to 26 hours of battery life. The Motion might be a good alternative for business-focused customers.
Unlike the recently-launched KEYone, the new smartphone doesn’t have a physical keyboard. Instead the device will house a huge screen with a home button with a BlackBerry logo embedded. The picture also suggests that the smartphone will have the 3.5mm audio jack.
