“Full touch” devices will have a 768 x 1280-pixel screen, while Qwerty flavour is 720 x 720.
After yesterday's news that RIM will release two phones in early 2013 (one touch, one Qwerty), comes more details about those phones.
The first BlackBerry 10 “full touch” device will come with a 768 x 1280 resolution screen, while their Qwerty handset will be 720 x 720 pixels.
And that seems to be the way things are going to be from hereon in. There will be two types of BlackBerries:
Full touch devices: 720 x 1280 (16:9)
Keyboard devices: 720 x 720 (1:1)
This standardisation is useful news for developers, as it will allow them to plan well ahead of time, safe in the knowledge that products will display on future devices.
