Once synonymous with cutting edge phone technology, BlackBerry is now a name rarely mentioned in the world of smartphones. However, could that all be about to change? OnwardMobility, the new owner of BlackBerry, has announced that we will be seeing a new BlackBerry 5G handset arrive at some point in 2021.

There hasn't been much information released about this upcoming BlackBerry smartphone, but we do know that it will have a classic BlackBerry QWERTY keyboard and will use 5G technology.
