Blackberry decided to save the best for the last at the MWC 2015. After the company announced the Blackberry Leap; the company decided to tease a Blackberry Slider smartphone which has a Dual curved display which wraps around the side like the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge and has a slide out keyboard.

The smartphone is referred to as ‘the Slider’ internally and front the viewing perspective looks like the combination of a the Blackberry Passport and Leap smartphones. The keyboard can be slide down when needed just like the Blackberry Torch series. There are also rumours it could run Android.
Like the company did with the Classic before it went official, no word has been provided on specs, features or any time frame for the smartphone to launch. The Blackberry Slider has so far generated so many positive reviews, which only points to the fact that the company’s road to full recovery is no far off.
Blackberry also announced that the classic smartphone would be getting more colour options – Bronze, White and Blue has been added to join the only available Black model. The company also has a high end device in partnership with Porsche Design which codenamed Keian, in memory of Keian Blundell (the son of a crackberry community writer which passed away last year).
