Recently, TCL Communications' Steve Cistulli has been posting some Blackberry KeyONE teasers on the social media site Twitter. This time, it seems pretty clear that the US availability and pricing details for the Blackberry KeyONE will be announced by the company this week.
According to Cantech Letter, Steve Cistulli's tweet considers the Blackberry KeyONE is resting atop a retail box and was already expecting a May 5, 2017, announcement. However, the delay between Blackberry KeyONE's announcement back at MWC 2017 means the device has a lot more competition now than it has had earlier this year.
Blackberry KeyONE's typical audience is not necessarily the same as it is for those other devices even if price points are likely going to wind up fairly similar. The device openly targeted at enterprise clients, as noted by AndroidAndMe.
Meanwhile, Android enthusiasts were interested in dipping their toes in the Blackberry pool that looks likely have been a little put off by the Blackberry KeyONE's costly price and mid-range chipset. However, it can't be denied that the Blackberry KeyONE is one of the most interesting devices that will be released this year. It comes with incredible features which are surprisingly nimble and easy to handle at the same time an eye user-friendly.
