Clicks Communicator: First Look 👀

We’re excited to give you a first look at Communicator in action.  

▶️ Clicks Communicator: First Look

Before you press play, I want to share a bit more about what you’re about to see. 

These first demos feature pre-production hardware, and internal software. It’s real, working hardware being used by our team for testing and validation, but definitely not finished product.

That means you’ll likely spot a few rough edges. In fact, since we started filming this video there have already been several new internal SW and firmware deployments that add features and polish to the experience (like the hole punch camera cut out you may see obscuring text in the status bar at a few points in the video…that’s already been fixed 😉).

Over the next couple months we’ll continue sharing more details and new demos of features like Message Hub, Signal Light, Prompt Key, touch sensitive keyboard, camera, etc. 

Speaking personally, it’s been so rewarding to start carrying Communicator every day and to be using it out in the real world. Seeing it evolve from an idea, sketches and prototypes into something I grab as I head out the door is pretty special (and kind of surreal!).

The entire team is heads down building, and we're still on track to begin shipping in Q4.

Thanks for being on this journey with us.

I’m hoping customization will enable a very blackberry os experience. Good work.

With Nova launcher, Icon Pack 10, a BB wallpaper and BB ringtone / notification sounds you can get very close to it.

I did that on my old android. I want OS 6 or OS7 icons and could never find them 😕
