BlackBerry is expected to release the the A10, successor of the Z10 later this year, according to a recent report from CNET. The phone leaked in the BlackBerry 10 roadmap recently under the codename Aristo which is rumored to come with a quad-core processor, run on the updated version of the BlackBerry 10 operating system and come with higher-quality design and build.
The A10 would move the full touch Z10 and the Q10 with a QWERTY keboard to the mid-tier. The recently announced Q5 would remain in the entry-level or the more affordable segment, the report says. Sprint Nextel is expected to sell the A10 in November, according to CNET’s sources.”BlackBerry was pressured to unveil the A10 at last month’s BlackBerry Live conference, but the company wasn’t yet ready to make the announcement”, CNET adds.
Earlier this week Berry Flow has got hold of an image of a full-touch BlackBerry 10 device. It might be the high-end A10 or the mid-range BlackBerry Z5 which would join the Q5.
