Getting the Blackberry Classic!

KlausPA · 12-19-2014, 07:14 PM

Yes, finally a phone with BB10 Os and the keyboard that made BB such a great product.

Who is getting one?

Hmmmm...

GOLFFRR · 12-19-2014, 09:58 PM

I was such a BB fanboy for soooooo many years until I was forced basically to get a iPhone and now I don't see how I could go back. I do however really hope BB can get some market share back but I don't see them ever coming back to be honest.

Meh

Sign me up! Great Smartphone for work, not just a 600$ Facebook Phone.

CHCCubs · 12-20-2014, 08:52 AM

Looks like a good phone, I'll probably get one at some point when the time comes to replace my current Q10.

Only thing I miss about my BB was the real buttons.

ShopVac · 12-20-2014, 09:23 AM

I had their Storm the day it came out. Thought it was great - but relying on a BES for company emails was a joke - not to mention the slowness.

Soon as I heard RIM owner Jim Balsillie was trying to buy the Pittsburgh Penguins to move them to Hamilton - I stopped using their products.

Blackberry phones are for people with things to do, not for people looking for things to do...

The new BB10 operating system can give iOS and Android and run for their money...

Hold on, was this perhaps a thread we brought back from '97?

MrPrena · 12-20-2014, 09:10 PM

Blackberry (aka Research in Motion) still fails to innovate beyond their keyboard phone or even average smart phones. Kinda disappointed by John Chen.

Billup · 12-21-2014, 12:53 PM

I had a BB 8900 I think? Idk my ex convinced me to get it when smart phones just started coming out...., what a sucker I was, it was impossible for us to watch porn on that thing on long car rides.

Not to mention the BB App store had nothing good in it.

Blackberry/RIM is dead and buried.

People will not proactively look at alternatives unless there is something lacking with their current product. There is nothing missing on my iPhone 5S that would make me look at Android or a Windows Phone for example.

TXSTYLE · 12-21-2014, 09:17 PM

I was once a diehard Blackberry fan from back in my IT Admin days. It was such a rock solid and reliable service! In fact... Lookie what I still have :

Just in case I'm feeling nostalgic.

Still in mint condition! Blackberry BOLD
