BlackBerry 'Krypton' now named 'Motion' surfaced online

BlackBerry has been secretly working on a smartphone which was earlier codenamed Krypton. The smartphone will be allegedly named as BlackBerry Motion and will be launched sometime in October 2017. We now have the image of the smartphone giving us an idea of what it will look like, thanks to tipster Evan Blass. The biggest change with the upcoming Motion is the missing physical keyboard found on the Blackberry KeyOne. The lack of keyboard will give more room for the display which means a larger display as compared to the KeyOne.

The alleged BlackBerry Motion will have a USB Type-C for charging and data syncing and will have a 3.5mm audio jack for using audio output. The leaked images suggest that the phone might have a home button at the front with BlackBerry logo embedded into it. It is also speculated that the home button will also enact as a fingerprint scanner. As per the image, the smartphone will have four buttons on the side which include Volume up, Volume down, Power button and a Convenience key which can be assigned for any task.
