Description

BlackBerry KEY2 is likely to belong to the mid- to high tier and should be powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 processor, coupled with 6GB RAM and 64GB internal memory. The display (maybe 4.5-inch) will have a 1080 x 1620 resolution for an aspect ratio of 3:2. The phone continues to offer an outstanding physical QWERTY keyboard and will come out of the box with Android Oreo pre-installed.

This device is also known as BlackBerry BBF100-2
