Check out BlackBerry's first Android smartphone, Venice, in all it's leaked video glory

This leaked video for BlackBerry's first Android smartphone will rekindle your fire for the exclusive club.

BlackBerry is expected to release it's first Android smartphone in November, but leaks and rumours surrounding the device have been plenty. But now, you can take a look at the phone in detail thanks to a leaked video from YouTube Channel Baka Mobile.

The BlackBerry Venice, as it's called, appears to be running Android Lollipop, with a few additions like tap-to-wake, and a BlackBerry shortcut alongside Google Now's hold press shortcut. The phone also has a slide out QWERTY keyboard from the bottom of the device, that uses a sensor to let you scroll the screen by swiping on the keypad itself.

The power button is on the left spine of the  device while the volume rockers are on the right, with a smart action key housed in between them. On the bottom is the micro USB port and the 3.5mm jack, while the top of the phone houses the micro SD card and the SIM tray. Also of note is that the entire width of the phone, between the bottom of the display and the edge of the handset is the speaker grill.

 

As for the hardware specs on the BlackBerry Venice, those are still under wraps, but it's been rumoured the device will have a 5.4-inch qHD display. Maximise the video below, and the presenter's hand is almost to scale, which suggests that tidbit at least is on point. Also rumoured is a 64-bit Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 with 3GB RAM, an 18MP rear camera (with the dual-tone LED flash in the video), and a 5MP front cam.
