Ahead of the launch, BlackBerry has teased the launch of two smartphones, showing off features such as rear-mounted fingerprint sensor and dual rear cameras.
The two upcoming smartphones – BlackBerry Evolve and BlackBerry Evolve X will be sold by Optiemus Infracom, which has licensing rights for BlackBerry-branded smartphones in India, and other South Asian countries.
However, according to media reports, the smartphones will not come with a physical keyboard.

However, no details on the pricing and availability have been leaked and can be expected at the event.
Optiemus has sent out an invite for an upcoming smartphone launch in India. According to the company, the launch is scheduled for August 2 from 11 AM onwards.
Last month, BlackBerry KEY2 was launched in India late last month at a price of Rs. 42,990 sporting a 4.5-inch full-HD panel with a physical QWERTY keyboard on the bottom, Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 SoC, a dual rear camera setup with two 12-megapixel sensors, and a fingerprint sensor placed on the spacebar key. The phone had gone on sale exclusively via Amazon India from July 3.
