BlackBerry’s Priv slider might use Sony’s IMX230 sensor for the camera

blackberry_priv_front_derstandard_hands_onWe’re all waiting on BlackBerry’s last-ditch effort at the smartphone market to actually become available, but until then we’re just going to have to work with leaks and rumors about what the company is planning to do with their QWERTY slider phone.

We know BlackBerry is taking the camera seriously, as that’s one of the biggest selling points of smartphones today, whether or not its primarily designed for business or personal use. Some earlier rumors suggested BlackBerry would be shipping the Priv with an 18 megapixel shooter, but now it’s likely that they’ll be using Sony’s IMX230 sensor with a 21 megapixel resolution. This is the same sensor that Motorola’s Moto X Style uses, for those keeping up at home.

There’s still a lot of mystery surrounding this device, and BlackBerry has a lot to lose if it doesn’t end up being a fantastic phone.
