BlackBerry's Android comeback with a new identity
The iconic BlackBerry Classic just got a modern reboot as the Zinwa Q25.
It keeps the old-school physical keyboard, square 720x720 touchscreen, and signature LED light, but now runs Android with upgraded internals: a MediaTek Helio G99 chip, 12GB of LPDDR4X RAM, and 256GB of UFS 2.x storage.
Specs of the new BlackBerry Classic
The Q25 looks almost identical to the original Classic but packs in a 50MP rear camera, 8MP selfie cam, NFC support, USB-C charging, headphone jack, and a 3,000mAh battery.
It supports all global 4G LTE bands and ships with Android 13 plus regular security updates.
Price and availability
The Zinwa Q25 is priced at $400; if you already have an old Classic shell, there's a $300 conversion kit.
Zinwa also plans to revive other BlackBerry favorites like the KEYone and Passport soon—so if you miss those tactile keys but want today's tech inside, this could be your moment.
