Leave a "LIKE" if you enjoyed a video if you enjoyed it, and let me know down below if you had a Blackberry back in the day :)
Got a PC review coming up for you guys this weekend that I can't wait for you to check out.
Thanks as always for watching,
Justin
Justin Tse can't wait for the PC video when it comes out
Justin Tse I had a Blackberry Storm (the first one)...😖. I REALLY wanted to like it! Battery life was ridiculous though...
Justin Tse great review! I'm pumped for this phone
Calvin Green can't really compare the storm from so long ago to this device. completely different operating system and hardware specs. lits like apples and oranges. the storm was the worst of all blackberries ever made. storm2 slightly better.
Mike Abrames You're right the storm doesn't compare with this particular model. Justin asked if we had a blackberry back in the day, and I was letting him know. Thanks for the heads up, though I don't ever recall any comparison being made by me. Oh well...
I had few blackberries back in the day! I'll be switching from my iphone6 back to this blackberry
+Nabil P Niceee! You stoked?!
Nabil P me too! I'm so bored with the phones we've had. Now that I can have a blackberry and all the apps I've grown used to I'm on board with the new blackberry
Yeah I'm pretty pumped! Biggest feature I'm looking forward to is battery life and keyboard. Phone companies still haven't got the message people would sacrifice thinness for a thicker phone with a bigger battery.
Nabil P it's super exiting to hear you say that!
big mistake.
such a beautiful looking phone
if blackberry came out with some thing like this a few years back it would have blown Samsung and iPhone out of the water
+Danaria Scott Yea, it's nice to see them back on track with the TCL hardware partnership now though.
Justin Tse I know blackberry isn't competing with any body bet the key one looks like a good phone and its going to be blackberry's comeback
Agreed
the q10 was better than any other phone out at the same time and bb10 was also the best software ever made but nobody would give blackberry a chance so it failed. q10 was by far the best phone iv ever had but it got a little frustrating with no app support.
i just got this phone and its horrible. long time blackberry user and been with iphone for just a year but blackberry shit the bed using android.the os is pure shit. ill be going back to my iphone and remain that way until blackberry makes there own software again.
My parents had Blackberry phones. I always played Brick Breaker :)
+John Howard III hahaha
Lmbooo me too
As a KEYnote owner, good to see balanced and accurate reviews with no premeditated bias.
Found a BlackBerry Torch in a plastic bag thrown on the ground outside a phone carrier store way back. And that was my first phone.
burner
blackberry phones can last for years, true meaning of premium unlike so called flagship phones that are made of cheap hardware and crappy built quality.
Canoopsy you both got the same voice filter, isn't it
True I've had my blackberry Q10 for like 3yrs running now... great quality of phone, sad to let it go, but happy to pick up this Keyone
Still have all my Curves... with they weren't phasing out OS and pushing everyone to Android
I miss physical keyboards
Kyle DC bring back the sidekick
Kyle DC My first phones were flip phones and I dominated those keyboards. I didn't have to look to text which was great for high school, never got my phone taken away. I had an old BlackBerry but the buttons were so tiny and for some reason I was never as good with the qwerty keyboard as the buttons on a flip phone. I have hated not having buttons ever since I got a smart phone. I make so many mistakes and I hate the new update to the autocorrect because it has never worked properly. Now I'm debating on whether or not to get the S8 now or wait until my carrier decides to release this new BlackBerry. I just don't know if I would be frustrated with these tiny BlackBerry buttons. I just want a flip phone that I can play Pokémon Go on is that too much to ask?
Jsuis14 that would be sick. i miss those phones too. heck iv so many cool ideas for bringong flip phones back
My first Blackberry was the Blackberry 8830 World Edition. It didn't even have a camera. Lol. The last BB i had was the Torch 9800. I will switch from iPhone 7 to this. Excited!
Ry Estares I still have my 8830 and even charge it from time to time. Wish I had seen this new BB before I bought an S8+ which picks up so many fingerprint smudges.
Ry Estares welcome back home...lol
I just switched my iPhone 7 last night I’m getting my blackberry keyone today I’m excited
Very interesting and very brave decision. Hands down
I had the 9810 a while back. I just got a keyone and it has been great so far.
I've been using the BlackBerry Z10 for over 3 years now and I must say, I don't feel like changing it even though a limited app support. Best OS, UI and software security ever on a phone. I just love the BlackBerry Hub and a lot of other features including the gestures. Haven't seen a better phone than that. Prior to this, I used a Blackberry 9300 for almost another 3+ years and just loved that phone. It was my first 3G phone and the keyboard is just awesome. The fastest of all time I guess on a smartphone, just phenomenal.
Great video, Justin! You're killing it lately!
+Snazzy Labs haha thanks! Still a long way to go.
Great to see you back!
really good journalism there. I like that you talk more about what the phone is good for instead of what not. It helps the people to know what they actually want. Stay positive! Greets form Germany ;)
+Callogiero Thank you!
I love blackberry. I'm looking forward to purchasing this one. I've always had blackberry until 2014. now I'm switching back to blackberry and giving them a chance again. Your review is very informative and it helped me make my final decision. Thank you.
I was a heavy blackberry user in the past , they were the best and easy to use phone ever.
After 6 years of failure, black berry finally listened to the people.
Неустановленное Лицо The question is who's paying a $1000 for a damn cellphone 😕
$550.
Katie Fernandes Katie can I have $1000 I need help please
it's because a Chinese company bought the hardware part of them all together with a license to use the name! and blackberry itself don't make any phone anymore
Yeah, but I feel like this phone came out 10 years too late.
I got a Blackberry Curve when I started my first side business. It was my first "Smartphone" and I was addicted. True Crackberry. I have been mourning my Crackberry ever since I switched over to Android b/c I just needed a phone that had more compatible software. I am soooooo excited to have seen this one. Just ordered my Keyone. Excited to get it. I have never used phones for media and keep it on my at work at all times b/c of needing to be able to check messages and communicate to my staff easily and in a timely manner. My work actually has given me a phone, but it will be stashed once this one shows up!
From my first smart phone to today, I've never used any other smart phone than BlackBerry. The introduction of this phone is thrilling to those of us addicted to a physical key pad. For nearly a decade, I've hated every second of borrowing a phone or using my wife's for a moment and having to use a touch-screen keypad... ¡Viva la BlackBerry!
Good job, blackberry. It does stand out. I've never even considered a blackberry until now.
Great video. Couple of notes. As I watch new time users of BlackBerry's touch sensitive keyboards, everyone seems to scroll incorrectly. To fix this, try scrolling on your screen. Now mimic that exactly on the keyboard. Do that back and forth for a bit and you'll see you don't have to over compensate on the physical keyboard. Secondly, most people don't realize that it takes a good month of use on a physical keyboard to get the full picture. You will understand when you can actually close your eyes and type sentences without mistakes.
+Shawn Burk Thanks for the tips!
That's only one of the awesome advantages of the BB keyboard - typing blind, one handed - and quickly. Perhaps it does take time, but there is no touchscreen keyboard that comes close. The closest would be the BB Z series.
Nice to see a phone that looks different from all the glass slabs that people carry around. Thanks BB/TCL
definitely going to be my next phone!! ive owned the q5, q10, and the passport, and tbh the only thing wrong with all of those devices is that they didn't run Android. this phone looks fantastic. can't wait!!
I had maybe 3 blackberry phones back in the days. Bold was my favorite
Loved your video. The simplicity, the no frills facts, your voice and the music selection !
Also, unrelated to this review, needed to hear a few opinions on the Redmi Note 5 Pro. Need a spare phone. Key things I'm considering is camera and budget.
Hello Justin congrats on a great quality review. Finally something different in the market, with a great camera, awesome battery at a great price! I want this #KEYONE! Ps reminded me of BlackBerry Bold days ! Keyboards are back!
Thank you!
i started out with a 7130 when i got a job working as a salesperson for a regional carrier. 17 And rocking a blackberry during the flip phone craze. those were the days! I then moved to the pearl, 8800 world edition, curve 8200, bold 9700, Pearl 9300, Torch 9800, then i got my Red Q5, then a Q10, and im currently using the Blackberry Passport. I cant wait to try out a Keyone. Tho i will miss the BB10 OS. Awesome phones! You dont know what youre missing with a blackberry!
I am a fan of BB and have always been. I had a BB Curve in 2009 and I loved it. I had a curve until 2016 when I I begrudgingly switched to Android because I saw my beloved Blackberry had went under in effect. Yesterday, I went out and picked up my KEYone that I had ordered last week. I love it. Wish Blackberry would come back full.
I own three small businesses, I just got this phone, and I am happy with productivity thus far.
I'm from the day of Palm, Treo, Blackberry & Droids....all with hardware keyboards. I was forced onto the Note 2 (which I loved) and eventually the LG V10 but both with glass keyboards, both great phones none the less, but glass keyboards. I tell ya, I'm ready to go back to hardware keyboards and the KeyOne looks like the one for me.
I'm tired of spending more time correcting what I typed than what I typed. Bring back the accuracy of the hardware keyboard !
I will be retiring my V10 in a couple of days when my Keyone arrives.
I'd be very curious to see how you like the KeyOne after using the V10, I'm in the same boat....let me know, I
d greatly appreciate it. Thanks !
glenn kennedy you won't be disappointed... I love my keyone!!
I had 2 Blackberry's back in the day and never failed but obviously they became outdated when Androids kicked in. It's exciting to see they're coming back!
Had a torch in the past and am now using the keyone and love it
I had multiple blackberrys from the pearl to the curve, bold, and torch. I have always missed blackberry. So glad they finally came up with what's seems to be a competitive flagship
I've been a BB fan since my teenage years, going through about 3 or 4 of them, the last being the BB Classic which I love. I mainly use my Note 5 now, but still switch between the two over the last 2 years. I will always love Blackberry/RIMM for what it's aimed for which works for my lifestyle. I almost never play games or other multimedia. BB is also excellent as my work phone, too.
indeed
You did a very nice job I just stumbled across your Channel while I was looking for videos for this new BlackBerry. I am now a subscriber and look forward to all your videos from here on. I had all the Blackberry Curve and bold models, it's nice to see this phone capturing what the old BlackBerrys were. Great job.
I absolutely love blackberry.. i have had the pearl, bold, another bold, z10, z30, priv, and i just ordered this earlier. Fantastic company
You know, I'm a bberry fan. And I was waiting for something like this. I'll get it for sure. BBERRY is alive.
i have to say Blackberry did great on this one. I have always like blackberry over all other phones, it just never flowed with the time. hopefully they'll come back with this giving them a push.
Blackberry classic is the best phone I've ever had... I'm definitely buying the keyone!
I had a blackberry way back with the original one and I loved it. Got the keyone and it's taking me back to the OG and it has to be my favorite phone.
thank you so much for this review! nice one! the camera surprises me most! not bad at all! it looks a lot better than the 18 megapixel priv cam
man, been watching u since you had such a high voice, LOL
+RHYSE TV oh god lol
stalker!
Was a BB fan for years until I jumped ship to the Samsung s4 way back and stuck with Samsung for the S5, Note 4, S6 Edge and S7 edge...and now I'm going back to this as this is exactly what I wanted from a BB 5 years ago! Can't wait until it's released on May 30th here! I'm super excited for that keyboard! Touch screen typing sucks!
Whatta great review. No frills, just a straight forward review. Nicely done! 👌
+Daniel Serapio Appreciate it Daniel!
yes finally, cant wait to buy me one
Excellent summary Justin, just ordered one here in the UK (and this from a BB user for 10+ years.....)...
I haven't been this excited for a phone launch in a long time. I had some Blackberry phones back in 2006 and 2007 but I don't remember the model numbers. But one thing nifty about this Blackberry launcher is that allows for the use of icon packs. I don't see that mentioned very often.
I had the blackberry bold 9700 for 2.5 years back in the day, the apps weren't able to keep up with what I needed so I was forced to switch. However when this phone came out I switched from an iPhone to this gorgeous blackberry android. I just have to say I missed the bold which was my fave phone of all time. Now it is the keyone, awesome job blackberry and TCL
I had to give up my BlackBerry Q10 awhile back. This will be my next phone!
I only had Blackberry when they were the phone to have!!!! I can not personally wait to get my hands on this new one!! This going to be my work phone! I am excited.
First time viewer, Great review, clear and concise information of the important and relevant facts. I'm looking at this phone for my next upgraded and it just seems to fit the bill. Never used a physical keyboard so that's my next stop, in store try-out :) have a sub.
Thanks Justin. I am a Blackberry lover. Still on my Priv but am looking at changing to the KEYone. thanks for the honest review.
My first was the blackberry torch in 2011 until 2014 when I went to the q10 which I also loved, I have played on other phones but they don't work for me. Just ordered the passport and only cause I have worn my q10 out. I really like the look of this one. I will look forward to see one in person. Everyone laughs at me but with all I have to do as a teacher I am way more productive with blackberry. I hate touch screen keyboards which don't respond or disappear. BLACKBERRY all the way for me
Chelle Hunt how's your experience using passport.. lemme know please.. as I'm planning to buy
So am I Chelle! I get laughed at all the time. I have the Priv so I get both. Not big on the keys because of the shape
I am so in love with this phone! Dang it, it is beautiful.
I had the entry level blackberry pearl and actually loved it for the time
Good review. Like my Keyone. Still learning features.
My first blackberry was the Pearl 9100, 10 years ago! I loved it! I also had the two different Curves, the Bold 9700 and the Bold 9900. I still enjoy blackberry.
I'm curently having HTC m10.. it is dissapoint me sometimes.. then my old but gold blackberry curve 9220 came out to handle the rest of the day.. Blackberry may not the best phone in the world this day.. But they're great with handling your sht fast.. and that's what most of people would do with their phone.. Glad to see them again this year :D
I loved bb10, but had to finally conform and went with the priv. I'm interested in the KEYone, but I hope they come with a priv 2.. love the screen clarity, and the size of the priv. . thanks for the video.
Wow.. heard nothing but great things for the KeyOne! Other reviewers also gave it excellent review. Had several Blackberry in the past. My favorite was the Bold series. It has the most comfortable keyboard ever.
Great review Justin.
+Derry Ahmad Appreciate it Derry!
Got the Keyone. love it. am already touch typing on the keyboard then again i'm a BlackBerry user. have been waiting for an android hybrid with the original form factor for years. the shortcuts make this device is at least twice as fast as any other non bb10 device.
Bruce Banner Any lag or slow down with the snapdragon 625? I just want no noticeable lag...
C Jay pretty sure I can make it lag. but it doesn't lag in real world use. the shortcuts make it possible to perform most tasks in half as many taps/swipe than on other devices so in reality other devices are generally much slower. but who am I kidding? you wouldn't buy this if you didn't want a keyboard and it's the only real option if you do.
I was an inactive subscriber of yours before but man gotta say, really liking your videos now.
+JUSTECH Good to hear, really wanted to fix up my content this new year:)
Always open to more suggestions though!
Justin Tse You're cute (:
Great video Justin. I just purchased the Keyone and your video definitely helped with my purchase decision. Subscribed.
I had a string of BlackBerry devices from the late 90s to approx 2010. Too bad they never pursued app development seriously enough. Good to see the KeyOne. The first 'quality built' BB Android device with QWERTY.
I owned a curve, torch and the blackberry tablet. Just upgraded to the black keyone 64gb. Loving the phone
This is the phone of the year..
BB perfecting its phone for its exclusive, loyal consumers. Well balanced in pricing, specs and camera action on secure hardware, while sticking to what makes it popular and one of kind in and innovative in first place, a full keyboard on a mobile phone. Might as well stick to its own lane at this point to give ppl options, instead be like everyone else for sure cant compete, other companies been at it and only gets better so just get better in own lane i think. Its just a solid ass phone more than capable, end of day not buying a gaming console or media system nor need to break the bank for it either. They really getting right and more on point. Was curious bout other brands like but I'm such a loyal fuk esp when BB been trying to and have gotten it right with tis KeyONe.
I had a Curve 9300 & the Bold from the 9700 to the 9900.
Great review! Very honest, extremely balanced, concise and thorough! I'm new to your channel (my obsession with watching every KEYone YT review as I await for my own to arrive, brought me here) and this was an impressive first impression! I think I might stick around to see what else you got! Subscribed!
Thanks you and welcome!
Awesome phone and waiting for its successor to come out this spring and will buying it for sure. Great review!
Your thumbs are smaller than mine so that may why you can type faster on a touch tone screen. I love the way you can hold down a key and get an upper case letter.
I have been using the KEYone as my main cell phone. I have a second mobile number where I am using the Blackberry Motion. The Motion is like a KEYone, but without the keyboard. The Motion button placement is slightly different. I like the KEYone especially for writing text and overall use where there is a lot of typing involved. I use the Motion more as if it was a mini tablet for more serious mobile web browsing.
Had a BB curve 8520??, bold 9700 and 9900 back when. Switched over to iphone but have grown soooo bored of it and tired of how fragile they are, I just pre ordered the keyone! and I am very much looking forward to it.
Kyle Buker how's it going?
Still use Blackberry(classic), went android (note 4) but always came back to the Blackberry. i just get more done and have had zero problems.
I do wish they kept the concept name Mercury instead of KEYone
Great review Justin. It has an on-screen keyboard. If you hit the "sym" button on the keyboard it will come up on the screen.
My first Blackberry was the Torch (Slider) and then had the subsequent Black Bold series and eventually left Blackberry for my first Android phone which was the Samsung S2
I have the KeyOne and its the best cell phone ever. I have used Blackberry for the best part of 20 years.
Excellent review, thank you. I've had a blackberry 9300 for 6 years and its been excellent, but a couple of the buttons have broken off, so I'm taking that as a hint that it is time to change! I've just bought the keyone and I'm just starting to learn the android operating system. I don't need or want multimedia so this is perfect, and the build feels very solid. I'm just waiting for Otterbox to bring out a case for it.
+TheLastLancer Thank you! - Sent from 38,000 feet ✈️
Best Keyone Review I have ever seen!! Nice job.
Great review Justin. I really like the style of your review. You hit on everything that a non-tech would need in terms of practical use information. I have been a cell phone owner since 1989. I have a BB Classic and will likely upgrade in several years. I hit the subscribe button and hope you do vehicle and other reviews.
I remeber that days when Blackberries were such a status symbol. Now they are just another Android phone. Great that people that like a physical keyboard have an option. The shortcut keys look handy
A pity about the software stutters, surely there must be a way to fix that issue. Also the stabilisation on the camera, hopefully they can release an update to improve that
I cannot wait for this phone! i had the tour (which was my favorite!) and a couple of Bolds. Great Video!
If I buy this phone in the near future, it's all because of you!
Subscribed after watching this video.
Ruturaj Prabhune and Marlo the same same time as as a an issue
@Lilian Binns I didn't get you.
Hi Justin, great vid, I've just subscribed. I bought this phone on the day of release here in the U.K. (5th May) and I love it, absolutely great. I've been using BB phones since 2008.
Just a note on stabilisation, 4K doesn't have it but 1080/30p and lower does, and it's pretty good. Cheers.
I'm not sure I could live with a physical keyboard now, but used to love them back in the day.
+Snowmation Same haha, all I wanted was a phone with a QWERTY.
I still have my blackberry tour, loved that phone
Thinking about buying one!
For business - I get 150 notifications or more a day. The HUB is the answer - and my reason I will get another blackberyy
+Manvir Singh Yup, gotta love HUB
I was a huge Blackberry fan! I wish this had been the Storm! I started with the Curve; had a couple of those. The Storm was a nightmare, but the Tour, I think was a superb phone with an incredible keyboard. I'd use a tour with a current processor and camera. Shame how it turned out for them but the phone up top is okay. I forget who own their name and IP but they probably should have sold earlier.
good review. myself I've preferred the Nokia E Series over blackberry because I preferred the keyboards that Nokia made. Seems like a good phone
love this video been waiting for a new one the blackberry not a bad design but it looks like for business people
+Danaria Scott Yea!
I had the blackberry classic and I loved it!!!
still love Z10 but used my Passport for 4yr loved it and still think this is the best phone still, as for key note will see how it does on mountains
I'm bb loyalist. Till now. I have the q10. Hope to buy this one someday.
Former black berry pearl owner that thing was a tank loved it
physical Keyboard again Looks nice. Not for everyone but i love it
I love blackberry
HIGHLY recommend speaker stands or desktop speaker stands for those audioengines in the back man they would sound SO much better!!! I have the P4's and was doing the same trust me!
I've never owned any other smartphone brands besides BlackBerry, the Passport Silver Edition and Classic are my go to phones but the KEYone is interesting.
Ive owned 6 blackberries in the past from the pearl, curve, torch, z10, classic, priv, and honstly i would like them to bring back a style like the torch i loved the small phone with the slide out keyboard, the priv was to bulky for that
This is the Earliest I have reached to ur video!👀🔥
i have the blackberry classic right now. upgrading to the key one soon though !
