BlackBerry has officially announced the DTEK60, latest flagship Android smartphone from the company. If you have been keeping an eye on the Canadian company over the past few months, then you definitely know about the leaked renders, followed by a full specs reveal on the official website, all topped off by a weird pre-release pre-order campaign in Canada.
The DTEK60 features a metal-framed body with a dual-glass finish – one on the back and one on the front. This already makes it considerably more appealing than the DTEK50. The rest of the specs only further that notion. The DTEK60 is equipped with a 5.5-inch QHD panel and is powered by a Snapdragon 820 SoC with 4GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage. In terms of camera, it features a 21MP rear unit and an 8MP front shooter. A 3,000mAh battery is there to keep the lights on. The device also comes with a fingerprint sensor, USB Type-C port and a programmable button on the side.
