Is this BlackBerry's upcoming Android smartphone?

There have been rumours that smartphone maker BlackBerry is working on an Android phone with a “dual curved display” (a la the Galaxy S6 Edge) that slides up to reveal a physical keyboard.

The smartphone is supposedly based on a device originally announced at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona back in March. A low-resolution image of the device being held up on stage had leaked earlier on Twitter.

Now, Evan Blass (aka @evleaks) has posted a high-resolution render of the device, codenamed Venice, on Twitter.

The leaked image seems to confirm the aforementioned display, curved at the sides like the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge. There also seems to be a speaker at the bottom.

Dedicated send and end keys – a staple of previous BlackBerry devices – are nowhere to be seen, presumably because the device is now going to run Android instead of BlackBerry OS 10.
The rumoured slider keyboard is not visible in the leaked image but it is plausible that it is present underneath that screen.

While a Google Play Store icon is not visible, other icons on the screen suggest the device is running an unaltered vanilla version of Android. This would mean full compatibilty with a broad selection of apps from Android's Play Store.

Last month, Reuters had reported that BlackBerry would make the switch to Android. If the leaked image proves accurate (Blass has a long history of posting accurate leaks), it might well be coming soon.

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.
