While we’ve heard plenty of rumours about an Android-powered BlackBerry smartphone called the Venice over the last few weeks, but we’ve yet to see an actual physical BlackBerry Venice – until today. Thanks to an extensive leak out of Vietnam, the BlackBerry Venice has had a series of photos taken from all angles of a device, even showing off the clearly Android operating system that’s running on the device. Check out the photos below:
This is our first real opportunity to see how the slide-out physical QWERTY keyboard fits in with the rumoured 5.4-inch touchscreen display, and for the most part, it looks pretty good. What’s interesting about the software running on the device is that it looks remarkably clean looking – while it’s likely too early to say much, but the BlackBerry Venice looks to be running something quite close to stock Android, though they have made some changes to the multitasking window, for better or worse. We’ve still no word on when we can expect this device to be revealed, but now that we’ve seen one in the flesh, I think we can agree that the BlackBerry Venice is actually looking quite intriguing.
