No Blackberry here but yesterday we ordered 2 mobile phones on internet, and BYE BYE Apple, my wife had the 4+, and me the 4, yeah I know it's already iPhone 6 on the market, does that tell you that we don't really care about having the latest model of mobile phone or what?

I took a Sony Ericsson Xperia Kyno, maybe it's 1,5 year since they were on the market but who cares it's new and I love the fact that like on some Blackberry's you have the phone like touch screen, slide it and you have a real keyboard, I was also interested in Blackberry, touch but with keyboard when you slide it, but I read that it's a really great business phone, but for a more personal use it's not the best choice, my wife took a Nokia.

Was tired of Apple, when my charger for my macbook passed away my wife went to an Apple store in PAris to get one, they only sell some accessories at Apple stores, no way to get some things like a charger in another shop, and they told her that she needed to call and make an appointment, are they CRAZY or what, you need to take an appointment to buy a computer charger???

Anyways she insisted and after some time they sold her… This and a few other things have made me dislike strongly the brand… I prefer much more to have Sony or Nokia than Apple, even Samsung isn't really my thing, their smartphones are too big IMO...

I seems that you are right, salespeople always told me it's super for business phone, not for a personal use...

BB is still making good phones. With their new OS you can run android apps like instagram or spotify.
I like bb because they still have keyboards. im using my phone to communicate with others, im writing a lot of mails, so my email is my word, and with a keyboard, i have no typos :)

I've been a blackberry user since they first came out. Still with them today. The Z30 is my choice of phone. Perfect for what I need

Z, I'm thinking of getting the new Blackberry classic, can I use whatsapp on that? it's basically all I need (that and a proper browser).

Maybe the Sterns should buy Blackberry and turn the company around.

Samsung is interested in Blackberry, but I guess it's kind of a long shot.

Been searchign for the Passport!!! Went to a few different AT&T stores...and the response I got was "oh...a Blackberry...uhh...I don't think those are made anymore."

Needless to say I left without one.

Where did you get yours?

Currently have a Samsung S4 Active, it's fine. But I sure did like my old Blackberrys (not the Q10, or Z10...the battery life on those...were HORRIBLE).

I'll be ordering a Passport with my next upgrade.
