After launching in an unlocked version late last year, the BlackBerry KEY2 LE will soon be available to Verizon customers.
TCL today revealed that the BlackBerry KEY2 LE will launch at Verizon in the coming weeks. There is a catch, though, and that's that the KEY2 LE will be available to Verizon Enterprise and Small Business customers. There's no word yet on how much it'll cost, but the unlocked BlackBerry KEY2 LE sells for $449.99.
As a refresher, the BlackBerry KEY2 LE is meant to be the more affordable version of the standard BlackBerry KEY2. It's packing a 4.5-inch 1620x1080 touchscreen, dual rear camera setup with 13MP and 5MP snappers, and an 8MP front camera. Inside it's got an octa-core Snapdragon 636 processor paired with 4GB of RAM, 64GB of storage, a microSD card slot, dual SIM slots, and a 3000mAh battery. There are USB-C and 3.5mm ports, too.
Of course, there's also a hardware QWERTY keyboard on the BlackBerry KEY2 LE, giving you physical buttons with which to type out your messages. There's a fingerprint reader built into the space bar of the keyboard as well as a Speed Key that'll give you access to your 52 programmable keys without having to return to the home screen.
The BlackBerry KEY2 LE definitely took its time coming to Verizon business customers, but better late than never. If you're an enterprise or small business customer on Verizon that's interested in a BlackBerry KEY2 LE for getting things done, be on the lookout for this device's launch soon.
