Live Images of the BlackBerry Torch 2 Running OS 7 Leak

30 May, 2011, 9:48 am IST | by Ashish Koshy | Smartphones

RIM is back in the spotlight this week with their handset being caught on pictures and a video. Those of you following BlackBerry news might have already been used to the pre-release images of their smartphones. Anyway, coming to the pictures, the Torch 2 has been caught on some really clear pictures this time.

The sensor is NOT a camera

From what sources say, the handset will be running on BlackBerry OS 7, although about a month back the Torch 2 was said to be running OS 6.1, but let’s leave that for RIM to decide. The device uses both touch and a QWERTY keyboard as input interface. Check out the images of the Torch 2.

Apart from the pictures there’s a video as well, but somehow it's acting pretty funny. You can still have a look at the video from this link. Also, from what these guys say, the Torch 2 apparently has a sensor in the front and that shouldn’t be mistaken for a front facing camera.
