If you thought the only way to get a high-end smartphone with a keyboard was to buy a BlackBerry, you were right – until now. London-based F(x)tec aims to bring back the best of yesterday’s technology, and its first smartphone, the Pro1, does that with a modern twist. The old: a five-row, 64-key QWERTY keyboard and a sliding hinge that props up the screen at an ergonomic 155 degrees. The new: Android Pie on a 6-inch AMOLED. The 😬: a two-generations-old Snapdragon 835 processor and a price starting “around $649.” The F(x)tec Pro1 is up for pre-order now, with expected shipping in July. Join me for a Pro 1 hands-on from MWC 2019 in Barcelona!
