It seems like BlackBerry is gearing up for its comeback pretty soon. The company hinted at this last year when it became part of Onward Mobility, which is a mobile security company from the US. Now, the company starting to reach out again to build public interest.

According to a new report, Onward Mobility could be ready to develop new 5G smartphones this year. Interestingly, the company's announcement isn't an actual product launch. Instead, it has started a "Pre-Commitment Program" to engage with users and gauge the level of interest for its smartphones.

Those who subscribe to this mailing list will get dibs on updates about the company's new products and details on their features. Also, they can influence the development of features and functionality in upcoming BlackBerry devices. Finally, they will get to pre-order and receive new smartphones ahead of the general public. But like last year's announcement, this one promises much but doesn't offer any detail on products.

Onward Mobility could still be gauging how much it should invest into smartphones, as it is a highly competitive market. So the question becomes: Can BlackBerry make a successful comeback? Let us know what you think on that topic, and stay tuned to TechNave for more updates about this.
