[CrackBerry Question]

I have only had a blackberry for 5 years, love the keyboard (physical) and hate the way all phones are getting phat, all I want is a nice little high spec phone the answer is probably iPhone SE or one of the Sony compacts but I'd rather continue my blackberry journey. I doubt anyone has the answer but want to ask anyway! I'm sure I read about a budget phone being released alongside the key one and thought if it's budget and maybe aiming at those big companies maybe it'll be like the bold 9900 size!?

I am going mad with this! All I want is good keyboard so I can write emails texts flick facebook, twitter and linkedin, maybe look at weather too.

Even if I didn't want a physical keyboard, there's not much what I would consider small out there

Thanks for reading

There is no budget PKB that is going to be released in the near future. PKB is a niche and a phone maker must have high enough margins selling to that niche to make it worthwhile, so that precludes low cost devices that have current tech.

There are budget all touch BlackBerry branded phones being released soon, but they are only for the Indonesian and Indian markets.

Does it have to be new? Have you tried the buy/sell market threads here on Crackberry? People are always selling PKB BlackBerry models. Look for a Q5 or Q10 for the smallest models which run BB10. There are a lot of Bolds around too, if you don't mind the older software and small screen.
