Author’s Opinion

The Blackberry KEY2 Lite comes with a physical qwerty keypad which is very rare now. With the decent features it has been provided with, it is likely to get a good response from the Blackberry fans. The cameras also come with good features that can render good photography experience.

However, the latest trend demands a bigger display (some with Notch) which can give great visual experience and this might fail to fulfil that.

Overall, this phone has decent specification but price-to-specification is just not satisfied. If you are blackberry fan and still wants QWERTY physical keypad on your smartphone, you can go for it.
