Following on from the leaked BlackBerry 2011 roadmap, we now have a first-look video of the upcoming BlackBerry Storm 3, codenamed BlackBerry Monaco.
Thanks to the guys over at Crackberry, this is the first time the new BlackBerry smartphone has been caught on camera.
Although the video doesn’t shed more light on this mobile phone’s specifications, the Storm 3 is expected to land with a Qualcomm 1.2GHz processor, BB 6.1 OS, 3.7 inch capacitive display and BlackBerry navigation keys. There will also likely be a 5-megapixel snapper with HD video support and a thin frame measuring just 11.5mm.
The Storm 3 will support Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and NFC technology. In terms of data storage, the handset will come with 4GB of storage which will be expandable up to 32GB.
And as the video does show, there will be the usual functions for entertainment onboard too including a media and music player.
BlackBerry Storm 3 deals are hoped for this summer, probably July or August – and RIM is expected to officially launch this device during BlackBerry World in May.
Do you like the look and sound of this new BlackBerry?
RIM should be unveiling a number of new devices over the coming months. The roadmap leaked last month included a range of new CDMA devices lined up for this year such as the Monaco, Malibu, Montana and Sedona.
The BlackBerry PlayBook tablet was also listed on the roadmap, and was shown off during CES 2011. Described as “professional grade”, the PlayBook faces a competitive market when it lands – with rivals including the iPad, Galaxy Tab, Optimus Pad and XOOM.
We’ll keep you posted on any BlackBerry Storm 3 / Monaco developments. In the meantime, enjoy the video
