TCL Stop Making BlackBerry Phones

TCL Communications is the party responsible for making modern types of BlackBerry phones, such as KEYone (or KEY smartphone series) since 2016. Even though Android phone products that produce are good enough, sales are considered insufficient to offset aspects of business revenue.

That is why in the latest news, TCL Communication decided to stop making BlackBerry smartphones. This is provided in the BlackBerry Twitter account. Officially, they will stop selling BlackBerry-branded smartphones on August 31, 2022.

As per the announcement, it is still unclear whether the device will receive device approval or not for the deadline. Smartphones will continue to get customer service and warranty service until August 31, 2022. So, you have enough time to move to a new smartphone.

It is unclear whether BlackBerry will choose another partner to help return their smartphone. What is clear, they currently have a niche for Android-based smartphones that have physical keyboard keys. For Blackberry fanatics, this is bad news.
