    Some businesses mainly use blackberry's because of how private they are. That's why they are still alive I would say.

      right ? "why does blacberry exist in 2017?" cause people still use blackberry's. they are business phones. its the phone most government officials use cause its the most secured phone on the market. it has its purpose on the market. i JUST ordered the classic cause i honestly want to let go of my iphone and wasting so much time on social media. and it does what it needs to do. emails calls and texting. and if i need to pass some time youtube. ill keep my iphone at home as an ipod or only use social media at the end of my day. its got a place for people who still use it. austin is just a fucking sell out.

    • @ColinsCity
      @ColinsCity 7 років тому +6

      That's what i used to use my iphone for but even the social media apps i couldn't use because i'm so used to the keyboard so in February i bought the Priv for my birthday and it was the best decision ever, i will definitely be using the Priv for years because it's a great device, i think you will really enjoy the Classic, the battery is pretty big and will last a long time.

    • @maxarosio
      @maxarosio 7 років тому +7

      FiveGuysOneGame so I'm not the only one the should buy a passport. probably if i will find one for less that 200/150€ i will buy it as a second photo for the Croatia SIM

      I have it as my only phone and feel special with it.
      unfortunately it doesn't run viber ( which is popular in my country ) .
      therefore I have to buy the new Keyone.

    • @AstroTomK
      @AstroTomK 7 років тому +3

      Yeap, if a cheaper phone I would have bought, it didn't need a super cpu or expensive bling blam, just fast enough, with up to date apps. I hope Nokia launches an updated cheap E72.

    • @maxarosio
      @maxarosio 7 років тому +3

      Do you still use the blackberry?
      Is right that at the end of this year app's like whatsap will not be more supported?
      I was looking on ebay.it and i found passport's at 160-200 euros (that is a good price); but i thing i'll buy a Motorola Moto e2 as a second phone for 40 euros ( 2 days battery, dual sim, not the most advanced phone but for what i need is fine)

    • @a3f4cdf
      @a3f4cdf 7 років тому +4

      The Passport is a nice phone but the rear camera is quite shocking - more specifically the autofocus. Takes forever & is always incorrect. But hey! The rest of it is alright I guess heh.
      (apart from the fact near enough every large android app dev is blacklisting their apps from working on BB10)

    Hey Austin I love this video it's such an interesting way on doing a review of multiple products and is really informative I've always wondered what blackberry was doing with its phones, and it was done really well. you have a great personality and amazing cinematography I've been a fan of yours for a long time now so keep it up your doing a great job.

  • @mrme5898

    Samsung. LG. HTC. Apple etc are all clones of each other. Phones now have no unique features. They are all boring and all the same.
    Blackberry make phones which are durable and unique.
    Well done!

      It really is a piece of art. I'd totally agree. BlackBerry10 OS was a piece of art as well. LOL. It's been 2 and a half years, my Passport has been thrown as well as fallen down numerous times. But, what a sturdy phone that is! Software is just the same. No lagging or freezing or crashing. I hope their Android phones are built the same way.

    • @LuchoVena
      @LuchoVena 7 років тому

      I really hope Blackberry make their android version as good as BB10....too bad it released late, that software and gestures are bomb. its organic too. and form what I hear easy to develop apps for or import from android but there isnt that much interest from developers as the market hit isnt big anymore.

  • @appliedlogic1371

      +Rex Luminus " IN AND OUT OF APPS SO RELIABLE AND FAST EASY TO MULTY TASK .FINE TUNED. YOU'LL CHANGE YOUR MIND SOON. YOU CAN HAVE IT AS A SECOND DEVICE WITHOUT GAMING IF YOU LIKE."
      This applies to any modern iPhone (SE, 6s and up), mind you those examples are at $350-450 range, they aren't expensive for what you're getting, hardware (the A chips from Apple are leaps beyond Qualcomm's Snapdragon) beyond what the competition had at the time, still competitive today (unlike previous Qualcomm chips) still just as snappy today as the day they came out and just as usable as their newest flagships, I had 2 bad experiences with Samsung phones & tablets, one lagged like a MF after a year or so and the other started having flashes across the screen and shut down very frequently, also after a year... presumably because that $400 tablet overheated like a MF, not again. I know the S8 is pretty and all, but that's a huge gamble for me at this point that I'm not willing to make.

    The Passport is an absolute BEAST of a phone. If they release one with updated specs i.e. Android Nougat, 4-6GB Ram, 32GB + expandable, snapdragon 821, upgraded camera and a battery in the 3600mAh battery + range.....I'd happily give BB my money for that.

    Austin the content in this video is real good. Honestly, I've already asked myself what happened to blackberry because as you say it has a special place on our hearts. And now I know it because of you so thanks you. I really loved the Blackberry KEYone, I don't know why but it kind looks really cool with the keyboard and the camera.

    I remember my first Blackberry! I had the Storm 2 when it came out, was also my first smart phone. I hated that phone so much. It was slow, sluggish, confusing. I hated how when you pressed on the screen (full touch screen) the entire screen clicked in some form of haptic feed back. It's strange, when I saw blackberry I wanted to so much, but I couldn't handle that phone. Later, I replaced it with the LG Scoop. And to this day, that's still one of my favorite phones. I still miss the slide out keyboard at times. Now I have the galaxy s8+ and happy with it :)

    The Passport was a phone I always wanted and still want today. I just can't bring myself to get it because it's still around $200 today, though that isn't the worst considering the unique features it has (I personally like the keyboard and square screen). Also, it can run full Android apps, because as far as I know the Blackberry OS it's running is pretty much a custom ROM of Android anyhow, so you can install the Google Play APK on it.

Went to the S6 after that which was alright, it had a great camera, battery life was always very poor by comparison and it eventually crapped out on me. Now I have the Keyone and love it.

If not its a real shame, I like BB10 A LOT better than Android. I like the unusual design of the phone and it draws a lot of attention... everyone asks me about it. In fact more people ask me about my damn blackberry more than any iphone, android or Windows device Ive ever owned. I can see why BB fans love this phone so much. It is really cool and has some unique features and awesome video quality. I think Im going to hang on to this one for a while.

If you don't find the exact same apps as on Play Store, you'll notice that developers on Amazon App Store, have created versions that will do the job just fine, and run on both Android & BB 10 OS.

  • @v1d300
    @v1d300 7 років тому +3

    I hated the way you just dissed the Security features of BlackBerry, right from Priv they have worked ground up on security and the DTEK security thing is a big deal. What Google has started doing with Nougat, they have been doing from Priv release with their devices and even at hardware level. The hardware level security is important because recently we read S7 and other Samsung devices have been shipped with malware at some manufacturing level that Samsung was unaware of.
    And yes I would love to buy a blackberry but at that specs they are $100 more than they should be.
