Is RIM planning to release a BlackBerry slider?

News - By: pdaBlast! Staff - February 26, 2010


Is RIM planning a new (Palm Pre-like) slider? There have been rumors of a slider phone from RIM for a long time, but BGR now reports they have a BlackBerry source that is leaking details about a new slider phone from RIM. They cannot confirm the news so take it with a huge grain of salt, but here it is:


  • It’s a portrait-oriented slider that looks like a Palm Pre in terms of layout.

  • It will run BlackBerry OS 6.0

  • Wi-Fi 802.11n

  • 360×480 resolution

  • Might be a touchscreen device

  • Won't be a Verizon exclusive — it’s supposed to be a GSM/HSPA device.


    The picture here is only an illustration and not a leaked photo of any device. Sorry.
