the public back in June? Well, the phone is now officially available worldwide.
Yes, we know that the handset was already revealed a few months ago, but back
then all we know was that it has a 3.5-inch display a keyboard and an optical
track pad. This time around, the Canadian company has revealed the full specs

There’s also an 8MP camera at the back with LED flash while
