Yesterday we saw a leaked photo of RIM’s new BlackBerry 10 full touchscreen smartphone. Today, we have another photo of the device, which you can see below. This is reported to be the new BlackBerry 10 touchscreen device that will launch in early 2012.
The photo below was posted on Twitter by @TyC4all, who said that this is the ‘first image of the pre-commercial version’ of the handset, so it doesn’t look like this is the final device that will be released.
Design and Features
The BlackBerry 10 full touchscreen smartphone represents a significant shift for RIM, which has traditionally focused on devices with physical keyboards. The sleek design of the BlackBerry 10 is a clear attempt to compete with other high-end smartphones on the market, such as the iPhone and various Android devices. The device appears to have a large, edge-to-edge display, which is a departure from the smaller screens and physical keyboards that BlackBerry devices are known for.
The BlackBerry 10 is expected to come with a range of new features, including a revamped operating system that promises to be more intuitive and user-friendly. Early reports suggest that the device will include advanced multitasking capabilities, a new and improved BlackBerry Messenger (BBM), and a robust app ecosystem. The new OS is also expected to offer enhanced security features, which have always been a hallmark of BlackBerry devices.
Market Expectations
As soon as we get some more information on RIM’s new BlackBerry 10 smartphones, we will let you guys know. We are expecting RIM to launch their first BB10 devices sometime in January, as they have previously said that they would be launching in the first quarter of 2013. This launch is crucial for RIM, as the company has been struggling to maintain its market share in the face of stiff competition from Apple and Android devices.
The success of the BlackBerry 10 could be a turning point for RIM. If the device is well-received, it could help the company regain some of its lost market share and re-establish itself as a major player in the smartphone industry. However, if the device fails to impress, it could spell further trouble for the company.
In addition to the new hardware, RIM is also expected to introduce a range of new services and software updates to complement the BlackBerry 10. These could include cloud-based services, enhanced enterprise solutions, and new multimedia features. The company is also likely to focus on improving the overall user experience, with a particular emphasis on ease of use and seamless integration with other devices and services.
The anticipation surrounding the BlackBerry 10 is palpable, and many industry experts are eager to see how the device will perform in the market. The leaked photos and early reports have certainly generated a lot of buzz, but only time will tell if the BlackBerry 10 can live up to the hype.
