BlackBerry Hamburg with Snapdragon 615, 3GB RAM spotted on GFX Bench

The BlackBerry Hamburg has now been spotted doing the rounds on benchmark website GFX Bench giving out some key hardware specs of the yet-to-be-announced phone.
As per the listing, the BlackBerry STH100-x (Hamburg) will have a 5.2-inch FullHD screen with a 1920x1080p resolution. It will be powered by a 1.5GHz octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 615 processor with Adreno 405 GPU and 3GB RAM. The phone will have 16GB of internal memory.
On the camera front, the BlackBerry Hamburg will have a 12MP rear camera and an 8MP front-facing camera. The phone will further run Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow.
BlackBerry's other Android phone which is said to be code-named Rome will likely be a high-end phone, like the Priv. The phone is said to include a physical QWERTY keyboard roped in alongside a touch screen display. There is however little information about its specs for now.
On his maiden trip to India, BlackBerry CEO John Chen had squashed all rumours regarding its exit from the hardware space and said that it will launch a phone between Rs 20,000-Rs 26,000 in the country soon enough. The BlackBerry Hamburg could very well be that smartphone.
Chen had admitted that the Priv, the company's current-generation flagship phone was expensive and the lack of more devices backing it up was the reason why it did not do well. At the same time, he stressed that BlackBerry won’t succumb to launching too many phones together, like rival companies have been doing.
