BlackBerry KEY2 LE 64 GB / 4 GB

The BlackBerry brand promotes its own philosophy to the masses — the manufacturer's mobile devices stand out from their peers by having a physical QWERTY keyboard on board. The novelty of the autumn season of 2018 in the face of the BlackBerry KEY2 LE smartphone is just one of them.

QWERTY keyboard

The physical keyboard is much more convenient to use for typing than the on-screen one. In addition, it is possible to assign a quick launch of applications to each of its keys or set the dialing number of someone from the contact book. An equally curious detail hides a gap combined with a fingerprint scanner.

IPS screen

Despite the fact that the keyboard "eats" part of the front panel of the case, there is a lot of space left for the screen. It stretches 4.5" diagonally and has a 3:2 aspect ratio. The picture is displayed in an atypical resolution of 1620x1080 pixels — a kind of vertically truncated FullHD format.

Balanced hardware

The smartphone works under the control of the “underhood hardware” consisting of an 8-core Snapdragon 636 chip, 4 GB of RAM and Adreno 509 graphics. Nimble responsiveness is also facilitated by the almost “naked” Android 8.1 OS with a minimum of intervention in the system by the manufacturer.

Fully developed

The photographic side of the issue is the lot of the paired main camera with 13 and 5 MP modules. The assets of the first have optics with f / 2.2 aperture, and its characteristics provide the possibility of recording 4K videos. The front camera of the model is traditionally simpler — the sensor on the front panel shoots at a resolution of 8 MP. Other "chips" BlackBerry KEY2 LE — a programmable key on the right side, an NFC chip as part of communication modules and a rubberized back cover for a more tenacious grip of the smartphone in your hand. The device is the best solution for those who cannot imagine availability without correspondence in messengers, communication in social networks and are accustomed to taking a bunch of notes on the go.
