BlackBerry fans turned to other phones as they could not connect with the company’s outdated operating system. However, TCL, a Chinese company is now using BlackBerry’s licensed name to manufacture and distribute BlackBerry phones. TCL is also responsible for operating the Alcatel brand.

BlackBerry will continue to work as a software organisation and will work in collusion with TCL to deliver a high caliber Android phone. TCL is currently working on phones that will range from affordable entry-level phones to premium phones and we assume that the ‘Mercury’ will be part  the upper echelon. ‘Mercury’ is currently the project name for the device and the official name will be confirmed on the day of the announcement.
