If you are in Canada and are a fan of BlackBerry, then you’re probably going to be super happy to know that the company’s latest handset, the KEYone is now available for purchase in the country.
The phone is available for pickup at Rogers, Bell, Bell MTS, SaskTel and Telus (for those with a business account only) for $0 down on contract to $699.99 CAD no-term.
But if you don’t want to do business with a carrier for some reason, keep in mind the unlocked version will be made available. In June, customers will be able to pick it up for $729 CAD.
In case you don’t remember the BlackBerry KEYone comes with a 4.5-inch display with 1620 x 1080 resolution and 434ppi. It’s a mid-range handset so don’t expect a Snapdragon 835 or anything like that. Instead it’s fueled by a Snapdragon 625 in combination with 3GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage (microSD card slot available to expand memory up to 2TB).
On the imaging front, the handset features a main 12-megapixel camera and an 8-megapixel self-portrait shooter. It also bundles a 3,505 mAh battery and ships with Android 7.1 Nougat.
Naturally the main selling point of the KEYone is the keyboard which also doubles as a fingerprint scanner.
