    Well SoC is one of the first things complimenting the premium definition.
    So you say. I beg to differ.

    A BMW M2 is a premium vehicle, but has nowhere near the performance of the M6.

    Likewise the KEYᵒⁿᵉ is a premium handset but there are many devices with more horsepower.

    Well I don't think this analogy is stable.

    A BMW is premium because of its brand value in the first place. Then comes the way its motors structured and of course the rear wheel drive system.

    The design and the materials used inside of the car is much better than other brands.

    For smartphone market, BlackBerry uses the same materials as other OEMs, has worse screen/display (LCD vs AMOLED), has worse SoC, has worse camera and has the same OS.

    What is better in BlackBerry handsets? Security and battery life? So instead of being an M2 (one of the fastest cars in its class) it becomes a hybrid Prius.

    845. I really doubt that. Doesn't quite line with what Singh has been saying in the interviews. It would be too ambitious to do that anyway.

    The render looks like new Vodafone Smart X9 built by TCL. Who knows? Change the glass back with grippy KEYone back and make the edges matte aluminum and we are good to go?

    If this site is credible.

    https://m.gadgetsnow.com/mobile-phones/Blackberry-Ghost

    The Blackberry Ghost mobile features a 6.0" (15.24 cm) display with a screen resolution of 1440 x 2960 pixels and runs on Android v8.0 (Oreo) operating system. The device is powered by Octa core, 2 GHz, Cortex A53 processor paired with 6 GB of RAM. As far as the battery is concerned it has 3500 mAh. Over that, as far as the rear camera is concerned this mobile has a 13 MP camera Exmor-RS CMOS Sensor supporting a resolution of 4128 x 3096 Pixels and the front snapper is powered by a Exmor-RS CMOS Sensor. Other sensors include Light sensor, Proximity sensor, Accelerometer, Compass, Gyroscope. So, does it have a fingerprint sensor? Yes, it does. For graphical performance that can make games run smoothly, this phone has got a Adreno 506 GPU. On board storage is at 64 GB with the option to expand the memory by Yes Up to 256 GB.

    Amoled QHD display with SD 625 doesn't make sense. So probably fake.
    That's fake news, no official news on spec released here.

    A little worried about the build quality.
    Lets see.

    To what posts were you responding? Writing single word replies without quoting makes your posts a bit incoherent.
