BlackBerry announces the Classic with physical keyboard and trackpad, coming later this year

by John_A

As part of BlackBerry’s festivities at Mobile World Congress, CEO John Chen announced a pair of new devices. In addition to the Z3 (Jakarta), Chen also stated that a new QWERTY device called the Classic (aka Q20) is in the works, and will be coming out sometime later this year alongside an update to BES12. We don’t know much about the device at this point, but Chen tells us that it’ll feature the “tool belt,” which means you can expect to see the traditional BlackBerry trackpad and function keys frequently seen on the company’s older smartphones. We’ll update you as we hear more.
