The phone runs BlackBerry OS 10.3 out of the box and brings in improved support for Android apps through Amazon Appstore and boasts a physical QWERTY keyboard that also doubles up as a trackpad area to perform gestures, scrolling etc.

BlackBerry Passport will sell for Rs. 49,990 and will be on pre-order today at Amazon India for Rs. 5,000. Consumers pre-ordering the device will also get 5,000 Jet Airways miles.
