Onward Mobility, a company that is supposed to release a new BlackBerry model, updated its official website on January 6, 2022. "I'm not dead," he said, stating that he would bring it to market.
There was no long-awaited additional information. It is said that various delays occurred in 2021.
This time, we only stated that the product launch plan is continuing, and although there is almost no mention of the product content, it suggests that the ban on information will be lifted in the future for launch.
OnwardMobility has stated that it will launch a 5G-compatible BlackBerry in the first half of 2021 in partnership with BlackBerry and FIH Mobile, but it has not been able to launch in 2021 for a long time.
The Canadian company BlackBerry (formerly RIM) is a pioneer in introducing smartphones originating from messaging terminals equipped with QWERTY keyboards for a long time, but in 2016 BlackBerry withdrew from in-house production of terminals.
After that, TCL manufactured, designed and sold the BlackBerry Key series that adopted Android OS, but withdrew. The second work, Key2, boasts the best feeling of keystrokes and has strong fans including the author.
According to information from Onward Mobility, the aircraft is a 5G smartphone that uses Android OS and is also equipped with a physical QWERTY keyboard. Since the newly updated statement describes it as an "ultra-safe 5G enterprise smartphone," it seems that it also assumes high security for corporations.
According to the information so far, it is planned to be launched in the Western market as well as in the Asian market.
By the way, BlackBerry OS ended support on January 4, 2022. In order to save the physical QWERTY terminal "refugees", we have just put it on the market at an early stage.
