TCL launched the BlackBerry KEY2 last week, packing a number of features that are firsts for any BlackBerry smartphone. While the 64Gb models were quickly available for pre-ordering, the 128Gb model is now available to pre-order in China.
The 128GB BlackBerry KEY² will sell for ¥4499, while the 64GB model is priced at ¥3999.
Running the latest Android 8.1 Oreo operating system, the BlackBerry KEY2 is the first ever BlackBerry smartphone to feature a dual-rear camera. It also includes the introduction of Speed Key, a universal shortcut key that now makes it possible to instantly access the apps, contacts and functions you use most from anywhere on your device at any time.
The BlackBerry KEY² represents a clear step forward in the KEY product series, bringing together premium materials and refined details in this all-new BlackBerry smartphone. Starting with an elegant Series 7 aluminum frame for added durability, this continuous frame design offers a cleaner look and feel while increasing strength. The soft touch back has been updated as well with a new diamond pattern that adds to the premium design while also adding more grip and comfort.
The BlackBerry KEY² offers up to two days battery life, 6GB of memory and in both 64GB and 128GB storage variants – with both offering expandable storage MicroSD support, making this the most advanced BlackBerry smartphone ever.
The BlackBerry KEY² is available to pre-order now from JD.com.
