Greetings, what do you think now of the classic bb? In my forgiving taste I like it more than the passport and I have the most acclaimed silver edition and even in use I like the classic bb better.
I’m getting one of these in 2023. I know that many apps are limited now due to lack of support but I need a phone that isn’t scroll/social media heavy. A couple of these apps would be good. Especially need spotify
Hello Cbutler, excellent video, I just bought a blackberry classic but I put the chip on it and I show that the network is blocked is AT&T but I am going to release it on the weekend, I did not know that so many things can be installed on the blackberry classic interesting, once I wanted to install on my other blackberry z30 but it did not work, the truth is that system 10 is very good for productivity, Greetings from Peru.
Amazing !!! I thought Whatsapp wouldnt work on the Classic!!...I have an iphone XR and am going back to my classic now. I use whatsapp for Work and Social, The fact that Whatsapp wouldn't work on BB Classic was what really put me off. I bought a few new batteries from ebay too....Amazing phone. The Passport...(really??) was almost laughably large and the Key1 and Key2 were just substandard (poor software...trying too hard to be a smartphone etc
Great video! Thanks for the entire series? I have a question.... how is your experience with the BB Classic in 2021? I heard there are some changes coming January 2022 as it is reaching end-of-life; how will this affect your experience with it? I just ordered a 100-4.
Thanks for the reply! "it" meaning the blackberry classic itself? Will make/recieve calls, sms, work with data & WiFi for email, whatsapp, etc. after that date or is it basically a brick that tells time? Thanks ahead!
@@grrtv8979 here's my guesstimate... It should make phone calls, it will work with wifi, it will work with text and internet but. Bbm messages won't work and anything that has to do with blackberry apps or software won't work or be supported but it's my guess since they didn't actually say what won't work whn the day comes
Can't use mobile data on mine. Can you assist me on how to set up my internet. The blackberry icon doesn't appear on top of the phone close to the signal indicator
@@CButler mine is an international version it's unlocked. Initially i was able to use mobile data but now it doesn't work. I realised from your videos that there is a blackberry icon on the top right of your screen but mine doesnt have that could that also be the case. When i toggle my data switch on and leave the settings page, it toggles back off
I am totally into this phone , the problem is , i an not getting this thing on amazon or flip cart or anything , where did you get it from , help me get one
@Web Abhi From China, but unfortunately it does not work proper. I can not receive calls, sometimes I do. People tell me they called but I did not have any missed calls.
Are you able to use data services over cellular on your BB Classic? A few months ago I tried reactivating my Classic on Verizon and they said they don’t support the phone anymore. I got a plan on PureTalk but I can only make phone calls and do SMS when not on WiFi. No MMS, No Email, Browsing or other data services work over Cellular. Is there a carrier out there that still supports data services on the Classic?
@CButler - Per your reply, I ordered a SIM from Metro By T-Mobile and got it activated on my BB Classic today and now I can leverage data services over cellular. Thanks again for the tip!
Greetings, my bb Classic and my silver edition passport, both are unlocked and I don't use a contract, I jump from all the At & t and Tmobile companies and I have had no problems, right now I use H2O Wireless.
Hi guys, I'm thinking of going back to this device, just wondering before i buy one, for how long this phone can be still used for? Dont want to buy it and in a few months to die all together, any ideas? Thanks
The BlackBerry Classic q20 has 4g on it, so it should be usable for quite a few years. At least as a basic phone. I’m not sure how much longer you will still be able to get google apps and how smoothly they will run. But if you want to get away from social media like me, it will be an excellent choice for years.
BB10 OS is a closed (multiencrypted) system, so it's still one of the safest operating system based on Linux QNX coding, and some are saying that BB10 OS is the most safest OS for phones even now in 2021. So, yes, it's very safe and most of Android apps which are coded to support Android 4.1 (and higher) can work on this beautiful peace of tech without problems. You just have to find a compatible version of app you want to use in a way that supports Android 4.1+. Once you get BB phone with a keypad in your hands, you'll realise quickly how much dufficult is to leave BB phone and do a swich to some of latest and modern Android phone brands. There phones, especially Classic and Passport are very unique and with completely different using experience, and yet simple but elegant, cute and beautiful, so you'll fall in love with these phones very quick.
For being an older device, that thing runs smooth still. Great suggestions of apps. Thanks for sharing fam.
Thanks so much SG it's so much fun customizing the phone to how you want it!
Thanks, it worked, thanks to this video I managed to install my favorite applications on blackberry! :)
Thank you! Just given the BB to my son and he is in love with it! Good to know about these apps :)
There is no link in the description sir
Can tiktok be installed on this?

They said it will stop working in January or February of 2022 so it should work fine up until that point

Very helpful but what about Amazon Shopping, Bank of America, American Express, GetUpside, Fish Weather, Sonos, etc.?
if those apps support android 4.1 they will also work on this one.

Nice video, but I have a problem with some app (an example Apkpure). the sentence is "Impossible install the application", what is the problem?
I was able to install that app check to make sure the version your using is the same one as mine . It should be an APK file.
Of you can't get it to work I'll give you the version I installed
Thanks guy, i solved the problem! Only problem right now is with the oginsta direct
