Using 18MP Camera, Blackberry Mercury Ready To Release End Of The Month
Although the last few years sales are not as successful as before, but that does not mean BlackBerry stop innovating. This is evident from their plans to release a BlackBerry Mercury or DTEK70 series. The release was reportedly just a matter of time.
Based on the information obtained, the blackberry has been distributing invitations to several companies. The Canadian-based company is also mentioned will introduce their latest product, BlackBerry Mercury. Although in the press conference invitation was not mentioned about the name and number of the handset model.
On the invitation that has been circulating mentioned that the BlackBerry will hold a press event that will be held on 25 February, held in Barcelona, this event itself will reportedly begin at 19:00 local time. In the invitation was also visible last phone owned by BlackBerry. (Also read: BlackBerry Priv Will Be Released at a Price of 12 Million?)
BlackBerry Mercury itself is rumored to be offering pretty good specs, such as 4.5-inch wide screen, octa-core chipset Snapdragon 625 is embedded in it will compete with chipset graphics series Adreno 506 and 3GB of RAM. BlackBerry Mercury also will eventually have a main camera with 18 megapixel resolution and selfie camera of 8 megapixels, according to information obtained therein will be the same sensor with Google Pixel and Google Pixel XL.
Not only that, this latest BlackBerry smartphone will also be powered with a battery capacity of 3400 mAh, physical QWERTY keyboard is still there at the bottom of the screen, fingerprint sensor was also not forgotten implanted therein.
For the issue of pricing and specifications more complete about the BlackBerry Mercury itself is likely to start unfolding on 25 February.
With all the security issues and the latest push to go away from apps, BlackBerry made a mistake with going to the Android platform and abandoning BB10. But, since they were never good at marketing, they wouldn't have figured out a way to get back without making the sacrifice.
My Passport will most likely be my last BlackBerry phone. I can't see the point of paying US$500 for a phone that will last 2 years. The phone as it is now, will probably be dead within a decade.
