The buzz around BlackBerry A10, company's upcoming all-touch smartphone, has intensified over
the last week. First we saw partial specs being leaked, followed by a purported picture of the smartphone. Now, we seem to have hit the jackpot, as someone has posted what seems like an internal BlackBerry slide detailing all specifications of the phone.
The slide, posted at the forums of BlackBerry-focussed website CrackBerry.com, reveal that the BlackBerry A10 will come with a 5-inch OLED display that will sport a resolution of 720x1280 pixels, translating to 295 pixels per inch. It is said to be powered by a 1.7GHz dual-core Qualcomm MSM8960 Pro CPU alongside a quad-core GPU and 2GB RAM.
The smartphone will reportedly come with 16GB internal storage, with an option to add another 64GB via microSD card. The slide says BlackBerry A10 will feature an 8.0-megapixel rear camera and a 2.0-megapixel front shooter. Connectivity options will include Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n, NFC, Micro-USB, Micro HDMI, and DLNA.
The phone will include a host of sensors including ambient light, proximity, accelerometer, gyroscope, magnetometer, and altimeter. It is said to be powered by a 2,800mAh battery and sport 140.7 x 72 x 9.4mm dimensions. The phone will supposedly come in two variants, with the Verizon (CDMA) variant being 9.7mm thick.
BlackBerry A10 will reportedly run on the yet to be released version 10.2 of the BlackBerry OS.
Earlier on Tuesday, BlackBerry launched the Q5 in India. The QWERTY BlackBerry Q5 comes with a 3.1-inch display and carries a price tag of Rs. 24,999.
