BlackBerry KEY2 receiving the August security patch in North America

George 18 August 2018

BlackBerry Android Firmware updates

A firmware update for the BlackBerry KEY2 is live in North America with users in the US and Canada getting the ABE181 build over the air. The update brings the security patch level up to August 5.

The download is a little short of 400MB, and with security patches normally in double-digit megabytes, there's probably more to this update. Details remain scarce, though.

If you happen to have the phone and the new build, do share in the comments any impressions you might have gathered.
