The wait finally comes to an end for BlackBerry fans. When the company showed off its upcoming flagship earlier this year it said that the formal announcement will take place in September. At the time no concrete date for the event was given. Today though it has been confirmed via the official BlackBerry blogs that the event for the announcement of BlackBerry Passport has been scheduled for September 24th.
BlackBerry’s previous flagships, the Z10 and Q10, were unveiled back in January 2013. The event was conducted in six cities around the globe. This time around the company is cutting down on venues. The invite-only event will take place in Toronto, London and Dubai on September 24th.
