In October we told you that Blackberry Motion, the brand's new mobile, would not have the physical keyboard that has characterized the mobiles of this company throughout its history. With this substantial change, the company intends to regain lost ground and adapt definitively to an audience that has already seen fully touch screens, without buttons, an indispensable tool in their day-to-day life.
However, the flagship of the technology has not reached all markets equally and that could have its repercussions if we take into account that since its arrival until now, most of its competitors have stepped on the accelerator coinciding with campaigns such as Black. Friday or Christmas. A few hours ago the official arrival of this phablet in Europe was confirmed. Below we will tell you more about it and we will try to see the context in which it will have to take action.
For sale in 28 countries
What has attracted the most attention to this device in recent hours, has not been its arrival in Europe, since 2017 late, was already on sale in UK and Holland. The highlight has been that since yesterday according to GSMArena, it is already possible to find this model in almost the entire Old Continent, including Spain. In addition, the device will not come alone and will be accompanied by a accessories series like a screen protector and a small case. However, as we will see now, there will be a small nuance when it comes to its acquisition.
The most significant of Blackberry Motion
As we said at the beginning, this support dispenses with the physical keyboard that has become the claim of the firm since its inception. Its most outstanding features are the following: 5,5 inches with resolution FHD, aluminum frame, scratch-resistant diagonal, a rear camera of 12 Mpx and a front camera of 8. In the performance section we see a Snapdragon 625 processor that reaches peaks of 2 Ghz, a 4 GB RAM and an initial memory of 32 expandable up to 400. The operating system is nougat and it is IP 67 certified, which, in theory, makes the phablet resistant to submersions to a depth of one meter.
Where to buy it
Blackberry Motion is for sale on the company's website. As we said before, it is accompanied by a series of objects and its price will be around $469. Do you think this is an adequate figure if we take into account its benefits? To this amount, another sum must be added for shipping costs that can range between 6,56 and 13,75 euros depending on the country to which the shipment is made. Do you think that the company will be able to compete strongly in the high-end range or is this model better prepared for the lower segments?
