[VIDEO & PICS] Hands-on: BlackBerry Q5

Recently announced BlackBerry Q5 is going to be the next generation entry model smartphone running the new Blackberry 10 operating system. With plotting itself to legacy Curve series segment, this mid-tier rocker is more powerful than one’s expectation. We are very impressed with the built quality. Also it’s performance isn’t downgraded in comparison to Z10 & Q10. You will still get the same fluid gesture based non-laggy BlackBerry 10 experience. Watch the attached video fore more.
