TCL announces the launch date for the BlackBerry KEYone, physical keyboard and all


We first saw the BlackBerry KEYone back at MWC in all of its QWERTY candybar glory. Running Nougat, it hearkens back to the heyday of Research in Motion, the Canadian firm behind the iconic phones. TCL is actually the manufacturer behind this somewhat anachronistic device. And if you’re one of those people who judges phones based solely on the spec sheet, then you may not be impressed with this one.

Besides just the annoying stylization — they should have stuck with the “Mercury” codename — the KEYone features a 35-key backlit keyboard with capacitive touch for swiping gestures.
