Review: Only BlackBerry can make it happen - Just a brilliant phone. Pros 1. Feels premium. Looks different. Feels different. In a world where all android phones look alike, this one stands out of the crowd. Especially when you have the keyboard drawn out. 2. Slide out is cool - Slide out keyboard is cool. BB has brought this back. KB Is very useful as well. Serves as track pad as well which makes browsing and reading a joy. 3. Price - It was priced at 60 K which was ridiculous. I got it for 33 K which is a steal for such a secure and different phone. 4. Typing - Typing is a different experience altogether. Both on touch screen and physical KB. 5. Security - Phone is secure like hell. There's an inbuilt app DteK which actually shows which App is accessing what on your phone. Very imp in today's life. 6. After Marshmellow update, phone works like a charm. No lags or performance issues. Cons 1. Camera - Rear camera is good. Not the best. But still clicks amazing pictures. Front camera is very average. 2. Battery - Battery life drains out fast. Especially if you use WA and PayTm.
Review: MY LAST BLACKBERRY - I got this for Rs. 31,318 in Feb 2017, the price has fallen to less than 30K now, also was available at a whooping discount at around 20K twice in May 2017, but I know it was launched at 66K. This is typical of Blackberry models having steep price fall with time. Coming to the phone itself, Pros 1. Excellent appearance and dpi 2. Carries touch sensitive sliding keypad, for those wanting the BB feel., also easier to scroll than from the screen 3. Very good built quality 4. Superb back camera taking stunning pics 5. Updates regularly. Cons 1. Heating issue, esp if you use while charging 2. Many errors like camera not working, front speakers not working after updates will occur, but a simple restart of the phone will solve the issue (those familiar with BB will do it) 3. A wee bit heavy 4. Poor front camera, though good a mere 2 MP lacks the crispy image. 5. Tough to find hard case for it I AM EDITING THIS REVIEW 6 MONTHS AFTER USING IT BECOMES SUPER HOT TO HANDLE, BATTERY DRAINS LIKE HELL IT BECOMES LESS THAN 40% AFTER OVERNIGHT 100%, IF USING BATTERY SAVER MODE TOO IT BECOMES 70%. ALSO WORST ANDROID OS ON TOP OF BLACKBERRY. THIS SURELY IS MY LAST BLACKBERRY PHONE. Overall buy it between BELOW 20K, worth any day than the cheap china phones, BUT DOESNT MATCH PREMIUM IPHONE OR SAMSUNG

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A glimpse of nostalgia
*by T***Y on 27 February 2017*

The first phone that I fell absolutely in love with. The phone itself looks spectacular, the slider bit just adding to its superb looks. It felt unique, something that stands out from the rest of the crowd. It's like bringing a 67 Shelby to a modern day supercar event. However, as much as I loved the phone, it did have certain flaws. The first phone that came in had a gap between the screen and the lower body (with it being a bit more raised on the left side)- so everytime you use the touch screen to type, the upper body would tap onto the lower body. I got that replaced (great service by Cart2India and Amazon). The second set was all better- but the issue with the raised gap came back in a week or so. I'm not sure if the manufacturing standards had gone low nowadays. Maybe it was the use of metal bodies in the older days than plastic. Nevertheless, if you're looking for something extremely solid, this may not be the best idea. However, as for everything else- this phone has topped all other phones I've used to date; which is a lot of phones. Good work on this one Blackberry. Could've been better, but still- thanks for bringing back the good old times.
