BlackBerry 10.2.1 to Bring Along New BBM Emoticons

Following the official release of the BlackBerry 10.2 OS upgrade several weeks ago, owners of BlackBerry 10 devices are bound to receive some appealing enhancements as part of the next platform upgrade, currently said to be BlackBerry 10.2.1.

The operating system iteration has leaked online recently and it appears to be offering some new BBM emoticons, in addition to various other improvements. As n4bb notes, some of the most notable new additions to the list include rainbow, cheerful clap, pondering, high five, moon, martini, and fingers crossed.

All in all, it appears that BlackBerry 10.2.1 will come to devices as a fairly large update, although it might not be marketed as a major release in the end. Those who would like to get a taste of some of these enhancements can now download the leaked OS 10.2.1.1055 that emerged earlier today, though they should take extra caution when doing so.
