“Reincarnation of BlackBerry” to Get an Update: Improved Version of Titan 2 Smartphone with Physical QWERTY Keyboard Announced
In the summer of 2025, the Chinese company Unihertz Nostalgia at the max: Titan 2 square smartphone with physical QWERTY keyboard inspired by BlackBerry classics is unveiled, which is clearly inspired by the iconic BlackBerry — as indicated by its form factor and physical QWERTY keyboard.
Now the manufacturer has announced its improved version.
What is known
The upgraded smartphone will be called Titan 2 Elite — and that’s all that is currently known about the novelty. Judging by the presented image, the model will have rounded corners and, probably, a thinner body — the current model’s thickness is 11 mm.

Let’s recall the main characteristics of Titan 2:
- square 4.5″ display with a resolution of 1440×1440 pixels and a refresh rate of 120 Hz;
