While on Tuesday we heard BlackBerry might join hands with Samsung for its first Android-based handset, a new report indicates the firm is experimenting with the OS on different devices. Another report also tips the specifications of the rumoured first Android Lollipop-based smartphone, a slider smartphone codenamed Venice that was shown off that MWC running BB10.

According to a Twitter post by a BlackBerry developer named @WhiteSharkIT on Wednesday, a BlackBerry Passport smartphone is seen running Android 5.1.0.2055 Lollipop, with an image of the 'About phone' page revealing the version number. The handset model is seen as BlackBerry Passport SQW-ANDS, with the last letters thought to signify the Android version of the smartphone. Unfortunately, the developer has mentioned no other information about the smartphone.

Meanwhile, in another report coming from the N4BB website, the recently rumoured Android-based BlackBerry slider smartphone aka Venice is being said to sport a 5.4-inch QHD (1440x2560 pixels) display, a 1.8GHz hexa-core 64-bit Snapdragon 808 SoC, 3GB of RAM, an 18-megapixel rear camera, and a 5-megapixel front-facing camera. The report claims BlackBerry will launch the smartphone by November this year.

Earlier this week, BlackBerry was reported to be working on an Android smartphone, as tipped by Russian blogger, Eldar Murtazin. He'd hinted at Samsung and BlackBerry partnering to launch an Android smartphone that's replete with BlackBerry's trusted enterprise services. Murtazin had said the firm was going to use its BlackBerry Venice slider smartphone, unveiled at MWC, as the base of its first Android smartphone.

The BlackBerry Venice slider features a dual-edge display, and is very similar in fact to the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge, even in terms of the specifications revealed thus far - a 5.1-inch 2K (QHD) resolution dual-edge display, octa-core processor, and a camera combination of 16-megapixel (rear) and 5-megapixels (front).

The two smartphone makers have partnered together on various projects, and even denied reports about a $7.5 billion acquisition of BlackBerry by Samsung.

Nothing Phone 2: There's something in marketing gimmick

Nothing Phone 2 Squabble: Nothing priced its first phone (Nothing Phone) at 32,000 on July 12, 2022. The phone was distinct because to its glyph light feature and distinctive operating system. Nothing has also developed Nothing EAR (TWS), a Landon-based firm that has sold over 1 million units worldwide as of the end of 2022. Here is our whole Nothing Phone 2 review. Carl Pei, CEO of Nothing Nothing Technology Limited (stylized as NOTHING), has introduced Nothing Phone 2, and people are discussing his marketing techniques rather than his products. They implement a twofold embargo for artists; it appears that they are encouraging influencers to engage in dark marketing. Mr. Rakesh, alias Gyan Therapy, made a video opposing the embargo while everyone else was busy fluffing it.  So, following the contentious embargo, I've discovered two major reasons to avoid Nothing Phone 2: 1. Expensive Pricing: The Nothing Phone 2 costs roughly 45,000 INR, which is 5,000 INR higher than the Oneplus

Poco X5 pro Durability test : Worst phone of 2023

So, Poco has finally launched its X5PRO. There is no doubt that device has some mind-blowing specs at this price, like a 6.67" 120hz AMOLED display with 1B Dolby Vision support, the Snapdragon 778G, and a 108MP camera, but companies always degrade the physical quality of phones when they offer something like this. Either you get a good heart or beautiful looks; if someone is offering you both, they will definitely charge flagship level price.
