    All you can do with a 9800 over a network is call and text, as BlackBerry shut down BIS.

    The Passport will work a bit better if you are willing to work at it, but the BlackBerry World appstore is closed. You will have to rely on a handful of native apps we have collected, or ancient versions of some Android apps.

    You can get Facebook Messenger to partially work (no calls) on a Passport.

    If you are in the US, then I'd avoid the Passport, as it won't work on AT&T, and is missing important bands for the other carriers. They may not even try to activate it at all.
