Rumor: BlackBerry's next flagship will have 5-inch display

According to BGR, BlackBerry is planning one last flagship for 2013, the A10.

The A10 will have a 5-inch SuperAMOLED display, a high-end dual-core processor, 2GB RAM and an updated design that is said to resemble the Galaxy S4, except rounder.



BlackBerry will shy away from quad-core processors again as a way to help conserve battery life for the device.

At launch, BlackBerry is expected to tout gaming capabilities, says the report.

  Consumers have shown that Blackberry really isn't what the people want anymore.

  They just took too long to try to catch up to competitors. They kept making the same old outdated crap compared to the other manufacturers. I think it will take some time for them to regain even a fraction of the market share they have lost (if they ever do)

  Well, they are responsible for the hole they're in. I just hope they continue to try and be better. Last February I was looking for a new phone and I had an S3 and a BB Z10 in my hand; went with the Z10. I love the phone. It's unfortunate that you can't try phones out for a couple of days without being forced to buy because I think a lot of people would like the Z10 if they had it for a few days.
