The upcoming BlackBerry 10.2 update will introduce a raft of new features including support for lock-screen notifications, so you’ll always know what type of message you’ve received and who it’s from.
As you can see from the screenshot below, the option to set up lock-screen previews for text messages, emails and other apps is located in settings. The leaked image comes via CrackBerry who sourced it from Flip4Bytes.
BB10.2 will also bring with it support for Android Jelly Bean applications and games – BB10.1 only supports Android 2.3 at present. These are just two of the confirmed features of the update but there’ll no doubt be more once it arrives in Q3.
‘All the great features that were previously available in Gingerbread will continue to be supported, as well as some specific Jelly Bean OS features such as Fragments, embedded fragments, animation framework and hardware acceleration. Keep in mind this is the first beta release, and there will bound to be some bugs as we work our way towards the gold release later in the summer,’ said BlackBerry on its Dev Blog.
Not much else is known about the BB10.2 update at time of writing although reports suggest it could be quite a significant bump for the ever-evolving platform.
BlackBerry 10.2 beta is now in the hands of developers and should see a release sometime in Q3. We may even see it launched alongside some brand new hardware like the rumoured Z10-successor, the BlackBerry A10.
