BlackBerry’s upcoming Android smartphone has been leaked by none other than BlackBerry itself.

The Canadian technology giant posted all of the details about the new BlackBerry Neon (codename: Hamburg) on its official website, before swiftly taking it down. Fortunately, the information was mirrored over on CrackBerry, and details are still available through a cached version of the BlackBerry website.
Here are some of the images from the site:
