  • BlackBerry Ghost Pro With Thin Bezels And No Keyboard To Launch In India

    BlackBerry Ghost Pro With Thin Bezels And No Keyboard To Launch In India

    BlackBerry, once a giant in the mobile industry has gradually lost control and relevance. With the rise of Android and iOS, BlackBerry OS couldn’t keep up with their advancements. Hence, the company, for the past couple of years, has been making Android-powered smartphones. Now, the BlackBerry Ghost with thin bezels and no physical keyboard has shown up online. The Ghost and Ghost Pro will launch in India before the rest of the world.

    Evan Blass, a popular leaker posted an image of the BlackBerry Ghost Pro on Twitter. BlackBerry has already launched the Motion, a touchscreen-only device. However, the BlackBerry Ghost and Ghost Pro will be the first devices with an 18:9 aspect ratio.

    There are three organisations that have the license to build BlackBerry-branded smartphones. While TCL/BlackBerry and BB Merah Putih have released BlackBerry handsets, Optiemus Infracom hasn’t. It now looks like Optiemus Infracom will finally release its own take on a “BB” smartphone and it could be the most exciting one yet.

    While BlackBerry certainly has a market where users prefer physical keyboards, it isn’t that prominent. The industry has widely adopted the 18:9 aspect ratio and it is time BlackBerry does so, too. The upcoming Ghost and Ghost Pro will also have the proprietary BlackBerry security features.

    It’ll be interesting to see if the company incorporates gesture-based navigation system as well. BlackBerryOS featured gesture-based navigation system long before the iPhone X was launched.

    BlackBerry has launched a few interesting smartphones since moving to Android OS. Devices like the KEYone with a full-sized keyboard was a great prospect for people who still craved for a physical keyboard but, also wanted an Android smartphone. The company has also launched touchscreen-only devices like the Motion. However, people found the device to be lacking anything extra for it to be a success.

    So far, the smartphone maker has stuck to an older design but, things could change soon. There are three organisations that have the license to build BlackBerry-branded smartphones. While TCL/BlackBerry and BB Merah Putih have released BlackBerry handsets, Optiemus Infracom hasn’t. It now looks like Optiemus Infracom will finally release its own take on a “BB” smartphone and it could be the most exciting one yet.

    Leak

    Evan Blass, a famous leaker has posted an image of the BlackBerry Ghost. He also mentions that the Ghost will be launched in India, without mention any other details. According to the image, the Ghost will have an 18:9 aspect ratio and thin bezels. There is only one image that Evan Blass has posted and no other details about the build and camera have been revealed.

    Conclusion

    While BlackBerry was one of the most sought-after smartphone brands back in the day, things have certainly changed. The company has released a few interesting devices but, never hit the ground running. Maybe, a new design, stock OS and the company’s own security features will spark an interest in the Ghost. Also, it would be interesting if the company names it the Ghost.
