Blackberry KEY2 LE (KEY2 Lite) details

Buy For

Decent configuration
Good cameras

Beware of

Small display

Verdict

The Blackberry KEY2 Lite comes with a physical qwerty keypad which is very rare now. With the decent features it has been provided with, it is likely to get a good response from the users. The cameras also come with good features that can render good photography experience. However, the latest trend demands bigger display which can give great visual experience and this might fail to fulfil that. So, if budget is not an issue for you, this might turn out to be a great buy.

3.5/5

BlackBerry KEY2 LE review: a keyboard that comes with a smartphone

Our two cents on BlackBerry s latest smartphone, the KEY2 LE

Oct 18 2018 By Prateek Pandey

PROS

Physical keyboard
Long-lasting battery life
Excellent security features

CONS

Sub-par cameras
Scaling issues in some apps and games
Average performance

Verdict

Despite everything, I feel that the BlackBerry KEY2 LE is a solid smartphone albeit, caters to a niche group of users. Now, if you like playing intensive games like PUBG, then you`ll be better off with smartphones like the OnePlus 6 or the ASUS Zenfone 5Z (review). If you`re an avid photographer looking for a cost-effective smartphone with excellent cameras, then the Xiaomi Mi A2 (review) would be better suited to you.However, if you want a device with top-notch security features akin to an impenetrable fortress, long-lasting battery life, and a physical keyboard, then the KEY2 LE might be it. That is, if you cannot afford the BlackBerry KEY2.
