CES 2018 is underway and along with great innovations, there are also new versions of well-known devices. We told you about the arrival of Blackberry Motion in the US, as Keyone gets a Bronze version. We already reviewed the original unit, then had a hands-on with the Black option. Now brace for a quick hands-on glance of the BlackBerry Keyone Bronze Edition.
BlackBerry Keyone Bronze Edition vs. the regular silver version
Changes to the Keyone are purely aesthetic, the hardware stays the same, so no need to go over the benchmarks and complex data once again.
The parts that used to be in silver or black color, now have a
bronze hue. The new version might look like the old one at some images,
but we assure you, it's quite different in person. Because of the
physical keyboard and the new color, the Keyone still has a unique vibe
and will keep standing out among other 2017 smartphones.
BlackBerry Keyone Bronze Edition in all its glory
The bronze version will arrive in the EU, Middle East, and Asia. TCL
Communications, the parent company of BlackBerry, told us that the
Keyone has proven itself successful in these regions, and the company is
giving the new color choice to its growing user base. Surprisingly for
the manufacturer, the phone was a success in Germany and its BYOD
environment.
BlackBerry Keyone Bronze Edition
The BlackBerry Keyone has been on the shelves for 9 months now. TCL
said that the most successful markets were the UK, parts of EMEA, and
Canada, but the last one is not getting the Bronze version, for now. TCL
also revealed some numbers about the user base of the Keyone - about
50% of the customers are enterprise users, most of them switching from
iPhone solely because of the physical keyboard.
