Video shows what BlackBerry 10.3 will look like and new features such as ‘Intelligent Assistant’

Last month, we saw leaked screenshots of BlackBerry 10.3, giving us a glimpse of what the new version of the OS will look like. Now, a new video gives us another sneak peak at the said OS version. It also shows us a number of new features such as “Intelligent Assistant,” a Siri and Cortana-like virtual personal assistant. Hit play to watch the video. Unfortunately, the Intelligent Assistant in the video doesn’t work. So, we have no idea how it works or how it will sound like. It does, however, show us that the feature is there. We’re sure to hear more about the feature in the weeks to come. Wondering how Intelligent Assistant will work? We’ll keep you posted once we know more.

Concept shows how BlackBerry handsets should look like

There are a lot of people out there who believe that BlackBerry is a sinking ship, after losing a lot of market shares to the likes of Samsung and Apple. This makes us wonder if things could have been different if the Canadian firm designed their smartphones differently. Speaking of a different design, CrackBerry forum member Ziro1 has come up with two beautiful designs, showing a touchscreen and QWERTY-sporting BlackBerry handsets. The question is, could the Canadian phone maker have sold more handsets if they looked like this? Here are images of the concept designs: The designer put these designs together by gathering information from other CrackBerry forum members who are also diehard BlackBerry fans. Should BlackBerry do the same and give their fans what they want? Will this allow the Canadian firm to sell more phones? Would you buy a BlackBerry if it looked like these concepts? Let us know what you think through a comment on our Phones LTD Facebook page.

BlackBerry Kopi pictured alongside Q5

Back in September of last year, we came across reports that leaked information on the BlackBerry Kopi, an entry-level handset that run BlackBerry 10.2.1 out of the box. Unfortunately, the Canadian phone maker decided not launch the device. This, however, didn’t stop the device from being leaked. In a new leak, the device was pictured alongside the fellow QWERTY-sporting BlackBerry Q5. Here are the photos: Before the Canadian phone maker decided not to release the BlackBerry Kopi, the handset was believed to be offered as a pocket-friendly smartphone running the latest version of BB10. However, it seems BlackBerry has decided to go a different direction with its entry-level offerings, as it will be launching the affordable Z3 in Indonesia in May. The device is part of BlackBerry’s deal with Foxconn, wherein the Canadian firm provides the software and marketing while the Chinese factory chain handles manufacturing and storage. Do you think deciding not to push through with the Black

Speaking to the news site, Ella said, “I was talking to somebody and I went to put my phone in my pocket and it fell down the drain. “I thought to myself ‘I’m not leaving this’ and I jumped down to get it. “I wasn’t really even stuck, I just need somebody to help lift me out but my mum got all panicky. “When they pulled me out I ran straight home and jumped in the bath. I think it was just water but I wasn’t taking any chances. “I was just laughing the whole time, I have seen the funny side of it. You just have to laugh along with it. “There have been a few nasty comments about me being fat which isn’t nice but I’m trying not to take it to heart.” Joanne, Ella’s mother, said, “I was really worried.

QWERTY-sporting BlackBerry Kopi leaked in new photos

Back in March, we came across leaked photos, showing the casing of the rumoured QWERTY-sporting BlackBerry Kopi. Now we’ve come across leaked photos showing the finished product, courtesy of Viet-speaking Techrum. Here are the photos: In terms of design, the Kopi bears a lot of similarities to the Q5. It sports a 3.2-inch screen, a QWERTY keyboard, and a 2100mAh battery. We’re still not sure on the rest of the specs, but from the looks of things this looks like a new pocket-friendly handset. Although these specs are far from exciting, a budget handset is always welcome. We are yet to find out when the Canadian phone maker plans to lift the lid on this new entry-level smartphone. But since these leaked photos show us the finished product, we reckon it’ll be soon. Interested in the BlackBerry Kopi? Let us know through a comment on our Phones LTD Facebook page.
