Bb10 Blackberry OS was ahead of its time, I am still rocking blackberry z10, they lacked proper marketing and proper pricing. They dropped the price too late

i dropped them like a bad habit when their network went down and left me without a phone. bought an iphone 4 the next day.

I carry a BB 9220 or 9320 with me everyday as a back up phone. Their start is lightning fast and when I struggle to use my Samsung display in direct sunlight my Blackberry comes to rescue. Nowadays they only do calls and texting, yes. But I will carry one forever. Any Blackberry, even the most low end model, is an excellent phone.

It was NOT a consumer phone. It did business stuff (Calls, Text, E-mail) to an acceptable degree and that was it. They couldn't even be bothered to fix or improve on the simplest of things. A big one for me was the lack of a lock screen or easy way to prevent accidental button presses without the case that covered the keys or setting up a passcode. The recessed "lock" button had to be held down for a few seconds until the screen faded to black. Then the phone was "locked" until ANY notification would unlock it automatically leaving it open for accidental button presses.

Maybe it’s just me, but I’d go back to a blackberry keyboard any day. If you had one, I’m sure you agree that no tech today beats the feeling of scrolling down that touchpad and the feeling of those keys. It was beautiful! Add the notification light too 😭😭😭❤️

Its not just you. This glass keyboard thing is horrible. If glass keyboards were good we'd have them on our desktops and laptops in droves.

physical inputs are great but I’d prefer the extra screen space

​@@roux6715not everyone needs a big screen. I personally wanted to stay away from social media and digital distractions so the size of the Key1/Key2 is perfect for me. Also, if you need a bigger screen the concept of Priv might work for you.

Todays phones still cannot copy and paste or even select text properly...

The iPhone that was showcased at that time with Jobs on stage was rumoured to have only partially worked, if only Blackberry had known this. The iPhone was not innovative, the touchscreen was something that Nokia had been toying with way before iPhone-some of the last NSeries handsets had touch screen features. Nokia and Blackberry were light years ahead of iPhone - it was the USA that was behind the times, not the rest of the world. iPhone is pants, 15 iterations later and nothing much has improved, but it is slowly but surely catching up to the rest of the world. Android is way more advanced and now that Apple has lost its monopoly type hold over the industry, a lot of people will move back over to Android because no one will want to pay extra for a handset that is priced according to its brand, as opposed to its features and what it is able to do?

S24 ultra 1040€, iPhone 15 pro max 1240€, both 256gb. So price difference 200€.^^

They were fantastic handsets the Blackberry's I had the Bold!,Storm, Z10 and Z30 and still have them.

Edit: Should of watched the video competely first before commenting (He quoted Steve Jobs) Steve Jobs said in 2007, the problem was in the bottom 60 of the phone, The keyboard was there whether you wanted it or not.

The Blackberry Classic was the only Blackberry I ever owned and it unexpectedly became my favorite phone of all time. A new version of the Classic running Android would have been a dream come true but it would never be. Thanks for the memories, Blackberry.

I remember how they was wiped out from market over night. Happened that they started co.operating by spy agencies. After that everyone left

What is the model of Blackberry in the thumbnail? That's rare.

I would prefer a phone with a physical keyboard again. i really loved the BB

Thank God for Clicks Keyboard for iPhone best new accessory of 2024!!

The Z10 was my first smartphone and the Key2 my last Blackberry. I still miss it and feel still disappointed by OnwardsMobility by even not getting started with a restart of Blackberry.

I didn't even notice it was an AI thumbnail until I considered the scale of the phone to the laptop lol, nonetheless, it's a nice video.

2:30 on android there is android for work, where copy/paste between work apps and oersonal apps is forbidden, data protection. Also on iphones having work/personal profiles.^^

Old people designing phones for young people !

I still keep my BB curve and Bold, the curve still working 😅

I wish they still made the Keynotes

I had blackberry curve in 2011 and my step father had the blackberry bold. My mum had the Iphone 4. Iphone 4 was the thing to get it was miles ahead of anything. Apple didn't sell crap phones they only sold the premium iPhone 4 so there was no such thing of getting a slow bad iPhone 4.

I have owned so many BB phones from the legacy OS to BB10 to the Android variants. I wish that they pivoted faster to BB10. I think if they had they might have had a chance.

I rocked a blackberry from 2007 to 2013. I had to let them go in favor of android, specifically the HTC One M7. That was a sad day I traded in my Blackberry Bold 9900. Tough good bye.

Fyi : i still never getting used to type in touchscreen keyboard. Blackberry has way better typing experience than nowadays iphone nor android phones

I have a blackberry Motion, and it works good as it should...

Bought a keyone in 18,phone was beautiful but the software was garbage,couldn’t use it then and damn sure can’t now.I know a few folks that still use the key2

This was a great phone and the operating system was brilliant, but like all things at the end, something new comes along to dominate the business world and this will happen to the iPhone with something new will come along to replace it.

I think there is a path for Blackberry back in the phone market, the so called dumb phone market. If Blackberry could offer a real alternative to the smartphone, for those wanting to reduce their usage and focus on a more clear set of tasks and tools, Blackberry have the name to thrive again, even with a smaller market share. A phone that has some of the essential modern day smart features is needed, such as NFC mobile payment, authentication app, email, encripted messaging, a good camera and maps. A simpler phone just for key tasks but one that doesn't endlessly distract the users attention with social media, web browsing, games and all the other apps that really, are just not needed.

On pixel there is extreme battery saver mode, where only Telefone, Messing, camera apps are working. The rest of apps are on pause. If you want to use other apps you're asked if you want to temporarily unpause the app. And screen can be in tones of grey. So you save battery and avoid using apps. No need for a separate dumb phone.^^

@@tomswan3401 You can strip down any smartphone to be more basic but it will always have the underlying temptation to turn things back on and suck you back into a routine of staring at the screen. I'd buy a stripped down smartphone with a smaller predefined feature set for modern life and I think many other would as well, given the choice to buy it.
