BlackBerry today showed off the Passport Silver Edition, a refined version of its wide-screen smartphone.
The Silver Edition has a reinforced stainless steel frame to improve strength and help with antenna performance. The design was updated with rounded corners, a slimmer profile, and a diamond pattern soft-touch back plate to improve its appeal and usability.
Most other features of the phone remain unchanged. The phone has a 1440 by 1440 pixel 4.5-inch screen, 2.2GHz quad-core Snapdragon 801 processor, 13-megapixel camera, and a massive 3,450mAh battery. The device runs BlackBerry OS 10.3.2.
BlackBerry is selling the Passport Silver Edition in North America beginning today via its web site. The phone costs $549.
