BlackBerry has finally introduced its Key2 smartphone in India a month after its global launch. The Key2 is the company’s KEYone successor boasting an enhanced physical QWERTY keyboard with larger keys for convenient typing, and it is also BlackBerry’s first to sports dual rear-facing camera.
The Key2 is also powered by the newer faster Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 chipset compared to Snapdragon 625 that powered its predecessor. To cap it all, the phone packed a slightly larger battery. Although it runs Android 8.1 Oreo, BlackBerry promised to release Android P for the device.
