BlackBerry Android phone Image leaks, headed to AT&T

Rumors and reports about BlackBerry launching an Android smartphone have been making some buzz on the internet since a few days. Now @evleaks has revealed new details about BlackBerry's Android smartphone. There will be two Android devices and is coming to US Telecom operator AT&T.

The first device is reportedly called Venice and features a large display with physical QWERTY keyboard that slides out."The Android-powered BlackBerry Venice slider is AT&T-bound," tweeted @evleaks.

Venice was first teased at MWC 2015. It is rumored to feature 5.4-inch qHD display, 1.8GHz Snapdragon 808 processor, 3GB RAM, 18-megapixel rear and 5-megapixel front shooter. It is expected to hit the market in November.

The tweet was followed by another that read "Also this" accompanied by a photo of BlackBerry Passport which runs Android Lollipop. This finding is based on the layout and design of the device. The image shows the lower front half of BlackBerry Passport running Android and we can see the typical Android navigation buttons on the screen - Back, Home and Multi-Windows on the screen. This points towards that BlackBerry is going to offer an Android version of BlackBerry passport too.

BlackBerry is yet to confirm the existence of the Android device. However, last month BlackBerry CEO John Chen said that the company would make an Android handset only if it could make it secure enough.
