I had a Motorola Defy years ago and about six months after buying the phone (when it had just come out) felt like EOL to me. I plug the phone in now, still gets its 3G and even wifi-calling works.

EOL doesn't mean anything except that no future support is available or planned. There are lots of great EOL products in the tech world. BB10 is one of them for many of us!

It will still be good for calling and text. After awhile the browser will suck so bad you'll have that. At some point email servers won't allow it to connect.
I used to come on here daily, but I seldom do these days due to that reason.

LOL
I wouldn't worry about it at all. I have a 2 year old leap which I use as a backup and mp3 player with no issues. I can still surf the Web and do my banking on it. I have a dtek 50 for my day to day phone for everything else. In 2 years time or less I likely will have another phone maybe BlackBerry maybe not. I like BlackBerry and Motorola android phones because they are not loaded with bloatware like others which just slow your performance.
BlackBerry 10 just like Sega consoles is a nastalgic thing of the past and life goes on.
That's all fine and good for private sector corporate, but its a different story for public sector. BC health services switched TO blackberry 10 barely a couple years ago (and just got rid of pagers). They won't be switching away from BB 10 until they absolutely have to - definitely not in 2018.
Surprised any health services would allow BB10 due to the KRACK vulnerability. Do they allow the phones to connect to WIFI?
So they will stay with a platform that will not be able to get any new phones for replacement or for new employees.?
Strange decision. Hope they made this decision before mid 2014, otherwise I would assume some decision makers have job issues. Same as the woman at the NYC Police Department who decided to standardize on Windows Mobile.
Lol. I bet you'll get K1 or the upcoming phone in a year or two.
KRACK is overrated and rarely relevant. If your application is affected by KRACK, your security architecture already sucks. Never trust the network.
