The device seems to be a midrange device with a 5.2-inch FHD display and 3GB of RAM
An unannounced BlackBerry smartphone codenamed ‘Hamburg’ was spotted on GFXBench. As per the listing, the phone has a 5.2-inch Full HD display and is powered by a Snapdragon 615 SoC with 3GB of RAM and an Adreno 405 GPU. It runs Android Marshmallow v6.0.1, and features 12MP and 8MP cameras.
This isn’t the first time the BlackBerry ‘Hamburg’ smartphone has been rumoured. According to a report by Crackberry last month, concept renders of the Hamburg, along with another device called ‘Rome’ were posted by online by Dylan Habkirk. As per Habkirk, renders of the Hamburg were based on “internal device sketches,” while the renders of the Rome were based on some time he spent with the device. The renders suggested that the Hamburg may have a similar form factor as the BlackBerry Z30, while the Rome may feature a physical keyboard. The two devices are tipped to be priced around $449 (approx. Rs. 30,200).
BlackBerry CEO, John Chen has already confirmed the the company will launch two midranged Android smartphones this year. While he did not reveal much about the two devices, he did mention that one of the devices will have a physical keyboard and the other would be an all-touchscreen device.
