OnwardMobility confirms the death of its 5G BlackBerry
OnwardMobility added, “Please know that this was not a decision that we made lightly or in haste. We share your disappointment in this news and assure you this is not the outcome we worked and hoped for. We are incredibly grateful to the team of seasoned professionals who worked tirelessly on this project and to each and every one of our loyal fans and partners who have supported us throughout this journey.”
TCL produced three BlackBerry models before its license expired early in February 2020. The BlackBerry KEYone appeared, at first blush, to be a step in the right direction and the KEY2 was even better. The two models featured a physical keyboard with the fingerprint scanner integrated with the space bar.
Battery life was outstanding and with Android running the show, users were able to load their favorite apps. The last phone that TCL made under its license with BlackBerry was the KEY2 LE, a less expensive and stripped-down version of the KEY2.
With the decision made by BlackBerry to revoke OnwardMobility’s license, it is apparent that BlackBerry has completely divorced itself from the smartphone industry. So don’t expect to see that 5G BlackBerry you were hoping for. If you want a phone with a physical keyboard, you can look at one of the two Titan models from Unihertz, or you might consider a new or previously used BlackBerry KEY2, both of which you can find on eBay.
