2. Battery drains faster as it get's older (or even worse stops working) --> replace it with a new one. Non removable battery << find a retailer (which for me means drive 600 km) be without the phone for a few days, not an option.
3. camping
4. also making sure my phone off, in most cases if the phones shuts down it isn't really down so I prefer to remove the battery to make sure it's off09-09-14 03:42 PMLike 3 - Dear Blackberry,
HAVE MERCY ON THIS MIDDLE AGED Q10 USER PLEASE!!!
I adore my Q10. Scratch that: I worship my Q10.
But I have been anxiously waiting for the Classic because I really do miss the tool belt.
Now I see pics of the Classic and... Oooooooooooh baby.
I got jello knees, tingly boobs and the mother of all hot flashes just looking at it. I want it NOW.
No removable battery? Who cares. If you make the battery life as good as on the Q10, I'll never need to swap batteries anyway.
No HDMI? Who cares. I don't use it either.
No glass weave? LOL. Being as fiercely protective of my Q10 as a she-wolf with her pups, I have it safely in a case, so I never look or touch the glass weave.
Micro SD and SIM in punch trays? No problem: I'm a woman who wears wire earrings, and I have never, ever seen any piece of hardware resist the mighty wire clasp.
From what I see, the Classic has everything I want, nothing I don't. That bigger screen and tool belt are so freaking sexy I'm getting symptoms not fit to post on a public forum just looking at it.
Just make the battery life a super ballsy monster. Make sure the OS is everything you say it will be.
And no double typing issues (which I never had, btw so thank you) or I will hunt you down and use the Classic to stab your Passport.
Because those hot flashes can quickly turn evil, ya know.09-09-14 08:58 PMLike 9 - Most these scenarios can be resolved by either having a charger with you or a power bank.
If you forgot to charge your phone overnight that is your problem. Solution - charge your phone in the morning while you get ready on airplane mode. Phone will be at 40-50% by the time you have to use it. Bring your charger to work.
Car phone charger.
Hopefully if you are out with friends you won't need your phone that much. Put it in your pocket and last the night on 20% battery. Or it dies and you go home later. Oh no!
Most these scenarios sound like battery anxiety rather than real issues.
Posted via CB1009-09-14 09:35 PMLike 0 - Exactly.
Power banks + Charger will solve these situations, which happens rarely anyway.
More practically, a non-removable batter helps to achieve unibody design which allows more capacity for the battery itself and better quality control of the phone's internal (no lose back, lose battery/bad battery connection etc.)And plus the device can be slimmer, lighter and thus be more portable.09-09-14 10:16 PMLike 0 - Most these scenarios can be resolved by either having a charger with you or a power bank.

I can charge my device to 100% in two minutes...because I can swap the battery out. No charger or battery pack can do that.
Posted via CB1009-09-14 11:58 PMLike 3 - Why all the bickering? It's pretty obvious that removable battery > fixed battery. -1 for the Classic in this regard but there are positives too
MINUS
non-removable battery
no charging pads for a dock
no convenience buttons
backing is not made of "premium materials"
PLUS
charging port is on the bottom
runs OS10
biggest screen with highest resolution compared to BBOS phones
biggest battery compared to BBOS phones
I call that a wash. Bring it on BBRY!!09-10-14 01:42 AMLike 0 - Why all the bickering? It's pretty obvious that removable battery > fixed battery. -1 for the Classic in this regard but there are positives too

I like the USB Port on the side- thats why I can use my old 9900 charging dock for my Q10. It wont charge it, but after I plug the USB Cable everything is like in old days Even the Clock . Here is an old pic.

a) physical keyboard users
b) corporate/government users
c) diehard BlackBerry fans who want the keyboard/trackpad/removable battery experience
There's no point in trying to win on style points. Those user groups don't care about style, they want function.moyah8 likes this.09-10-14 07:11 AMLike 1 -
I guess other people will have to start looking into other solutions because BlackBerry is moving away from removable battery's on their upcoming phones.
Posted via CB1009-10-14 07:31 AMLike 0 - I think the reason BlackBerry is going with non - removable battery is because of the cost and the fact that more people these days are buying external battery packs to charge their devices on the go.
Let's not be too quick to judge guys. Lay down the pitchforks.
Posted via CB1009-10-14 07:32 AMLike 0 - Hey guys!, had to sign up to post about this...
I've been a LONG TIME Android user... but ever since i saw this BB Classic, i knew i had to return to the world of BB... i last had a BOLD many years ago, but i am a little disappointed of the 'None-Removable' Battery... what on earth are they doing???
Still i will get this classic... it's about god damn time they bring back the 'Belt style' ... !!!!!
- Lith09-10-14 07:59 AMLike 0 -
it's convenient. Also if you do it in a hurry it can lead to broken charging contact
These charger packs are usually used for stuff like notebooks (cause the spare batteries are huge and expensive) , mp3 players so I don't know who decided that smartphones should be the same way..

All we wanted was a q10 with a belt and slightly bigger screen... Instead blackberry go and create a shame of a device in the classic removing the good points of the q10 and making a poorly though classic. Madness.. What is sooooo frustratingly difficult in just putting on the belt onto a q10 vs removing hdmi, vs removing the removable battery vs. just making the screen slightly bigger vs. using the same nice materials... Man alive... I'm seriously thinking of giving up on blackberry and going blackberry... If the classic is anything less then premium feeling, functions well ... I'm done.09-10-14 09:44 AMLike 3 - That's hardly a wash.

Posted via CB1009-10-14 10:13 AMLike 0 - I don't think that was the intent of the Classic. The Q10 was the QWERTY flagship until Passport comes out. Classic is a different product line, not a Q10 successor so it's not a premium device. It needs to be lower cost to make it appealing for businesses to upgrade to when buying thousands of units.

since when was it 'dubbed' a 'none-premium' device? (so are you saying a Q10 is better than a Classic?)09-10-14 11:11 AMLike 0 - I don't think that was the intent of the Classic.

But why did BB name it classic then? It looks like a q10 without a removable battery and a slapped on toolbeltMr4aces and AllanQuatermain like this.09-10-14 11:13 AMLike 2
