Today, CEO Peter Franklin confirmed that his company is on track to do just that. The company will follow the same design the BlackBerry phones have. The phones will be easy to recognize – they will have that classic BlackBerry hardware keyboard. They will be all modern on the inside, however, and will support 5G networks.

Currently, OnwardMobility is working with Foxconn to develop the first models. Initially, these devices will launch in North America and Europe. Later, it will be expanded to the Asian market as well. However, the exact time frame is not known yet.
