    When I compare q5 forums with other device forums I can see answers for most questions and doubts are very less and just curious how many q5's are still living in pockets!?

    I bought my White Q5 when the price dropped last spring. It's a horse for work. Together with my White Z30 I call them *White Chocolate*

    The Q5 doesn't tend to have very many problems so there probably aren't as many threads as a result. And, maybe there aren't that many in use?

    I just order my third Q5. My 1st one just died in Europe. I think my ElectricHome plug adapter fried it.

    They're great phones. I just picked one up on Shop BB for 99$; thanks to Christov on Red Flags Forums

    Im on a Q5. Not JUST a Q5, but Q5 is the most frequent BB10 phone that i use a sim card in. My Z30 and 2 Z10s are primarily for playing with wifi or extra music players or taking pictures out on hikes.

    Q5 and 9360 are my favorite 'functional phones.'

    And I dont have any complaints about it, it just works! It even took that surprise upgrade to 10.3 on its own.

    If you want a terrific keyboard phone that can also stream video without batting an eye, you dont have to have much money to just get a Q5.

    One for my parents. I liked it so much, I bought myself one, and then one for my daughter whom doesn't like glass phones (z10), and then I bought another on sale for backup.

    Count me in! I got my trusty black Q5 in Oct of last year for $60 used. Great phone that's always a pleasure to use.

    Only shortcomings for me are: low internal storage (not a dealbreaker) and weak/sometimes nonexistent GPS (more of an annoyance, but not a dealbreaker either.

    Got a white one ... occasionally I get upset with BB10 BlackBerry Maps or the Virtual Assistant but the device itself works flawlessly. Also had a red one but I gifted that. I have a flip case which protects the device well but the top clasp lasted about as long as an English summer.

    Quite true, no double type issues like other BB10 pkb devices, no battery/ reboot issues like Z10 & Q10... those are/ were the main problems with the initial BB10 models.

    And, maybe there aren't that many in use?
    Quite true again.

    It's a great work horse though. Solid and dependable.

    Funnily enough, I bought the Q5 and Z30 for same amounts. Q5 was the cheapest BB10 device when launched whereas Z30 was discounted quite soon after the launch.

    Ah the assistant. "Your command wasn't understood"..."the voice server is unavailable...". I sometimes spend entire trips in the car just trying to get it to make a single phone call.

    Try getting it to recognise a postcode (zipcode) without it inventing words in place of letters/numbers e.g. "L too ate 5 tiara"
