With the recent images leaked online, photos show what a BlackBerry Hub would look like when running on Android.

The upcoming device is seen in one image depicting the upcoming smartphone as it would appear with a closed QWERTY slider, with another render showing Android icons on the handset's home screen, including an icon for Google Play Store.

The inside build of the phone's rear camera hints the 18MP shooter may include a phase detection AF, and it is expected to use optical image stabilization (OIS), just like the BlackBerry Passport.

The BlackBerry Venice will also be supporting Chromecast, as seen on another render, and will possibly feature a stainless steel frame, and a glass weave pattern the BlackBerry Z30 also carries.

BlackBerry hasn't released much information on the phone's specifications, except that it will sport a 5.4-inch capacitive touchscreen with a Quad HD1440 x 2560 display resolution under a curved glass screen.

The Venice will be equipped with a Snapdragon 808 SoC, a hexa-core processor, an Adreno 418 GPU, 3GB of RAM under the hood, and a 5MP front-facing camera.

It is expected to be available through T-Mobile and AT&T by November this year, and with other carriers in the weeks following its launch.
