BlackBerry Q5
 |
BlackBerry Q5 is one of the first attempts of the Canadian company to launch a mid-range device with BB10. Though is not a premium phone, the Q5 doesn’t feel cheap at all. It fits perfectly in the hand though the ring around the phone is a bit slippery. There is a QWERTY keyboard up front and a decent 3.1 inch screen with a resolution of 720 x 720 pixels. This model has almost the same resolution as the premium device Q10, but the colors are a bit washed out while the viewing angle is narrower. Q5 is also taller and slimmer than Q10. The dimensions of this model are 120 x 66 x 10.8 mm and it weighs 120 grams. BlackBerry Q5 is built around a dual-core Snapdragon 4 processor clocked at 1.2 GHz backed by 2 GB of RAM. The phone includes 8 GB of storage and a microSD slot for expansion. Q5 is equipped with a 2 MP camera up front and a 5 MP camera on the rear side. The phone is 4G / LTE capable and it includes WI-FI, Bluetooth, NFC and GPS. Powered by a 2180 mAh battery, the BlackBerry Q5 is available in black, while, red, pink and grey. |
