Are you one of the Blackberry phone users once ago? This Blackberry mobile phone was a trend a few years back before Apple’s iOS and Android emerged to the world.

The smartphone will be powered with Android software and tailored for 5G networks. The Blackberry and its developer, OnwardMobility will work with a Foxconn Technology Group to work on the smartphone. According to the joint release, the company stated that the phone is targeted to people who are working remotely.
