BlackBerry Key2 goes up for pre-order in the US

Vlad, 29 June 2018

The BlackBerry Key2 is the second member of a rather unique family of smartphones with actual physical keyboards - a rare sight in this day and age. The Key2 was announced at the beginning of this month in New York, and starting today you can pre-order one if you're in the US.

Both Amazon and Best Buy have listed it, for the same price: $649.99 unlocked. You can pick between silver and black color versions. The handset will be released on July 13.

If you're not sure whether you should pre-order one or not, take a look at our hands-on review of the BlackBerry Key2. The device comes with a 4.5-inch 1080x1620 touchscreen, a dual 12 MP + 12 MP rear camera setup, an 8 MP selfie snapper, the Snapdragon 660 chipset, 6GB of RAM, 64GB of expandable storage, and a 3,500 mAh battery. It runs Android 8.1 Oreo.

Please dont mislead people, the size of a 6 inch 18.9 screen is about 92-93 cm square. This 4.5 inch 3.2 ratio gives about 60 cm square. When speaking in public please be sure you know what you are telling people.
