BlackBerry Krypton leak shows carbon fiber-patterned back

A new BlackBerry smartphone has been rumoured for a few months already. And now we get a sneak peek of what’s being dubbed as the BlackBerry Krypton. The latest leak shows a carbon fiber-patterned rear with a camera sensor and single LED flash (unlike the KEYone which had a dual LED flash, as you see in the picture above). It’ll supposedly be the successor to the DTEK50/60 with its 16:9 1,920 x 1,080 resolution full screen display, Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 or 626 processor, 4GB of RAM, and a sizeable 4,000mAh battery. As a nod to its name, it’ll supposedly have an IP67 rating.

A fingerprint reader is integrated into the home button and it’ll supposedly house all its buttons (including the Convenience Key on the same side). Its speaker, USB Type-C port, and 3.5mm audio jack will supposedly all be placed at the bottom. The BlackBerry Krypton is rumoured to be coming out next month for US$499 (around CA$615).
