    If you really want a keyboard device, it's a good choice in that price range.....

    There is a thread here on how to load the Play Store..... a lot of apps do work, but some require additional patching, and a few just will not work without Android.


    Personally I wouldn't buy another BB10 powered device at this point, but if you understand the situation and are ok with it.... go for it.

    Didn't you see exactly the same thread on the first page of this forum? Why to start a similar (exactly the same) thread?

    For that price i wouldn't go for it but guys overseas pay more for everything so I'm not sure what the normal pricing on this phone would be.

    If you want HUB, fast shortcut key actions and the best keyboard for emailing, texting/bbm whatsapp. ( don't rely on android apps from hacked versions of Play store its very slow on this phone) as well as physical menu button+answer / end call buttons then yes go for it. Its great for work related tasks

    I would and I did but the price was $322 in US dollars with 15% off code at shopbb. That is the right price for this tech.

    Considering blackberry wont be releasing any other bb10 device IN THE NEAR FUTURE you have very few choices. Either the classic or the passport are great. The z30 could also be an option, even the leap. It is not a price issue, if you want a blackberry running bb 10, that is what is available, and regardless of what some ppl say, they are well worthy and will continue to be for at least a couple of years. Go for it.

    So where did you read BlackBerry won't be releasing another BB10 device? I have seen where John Chen saying he will see how Priv sells before he makes any decisions.

    Posted either with my Passport or Q5!

    If the Priv doesn't sell well than I doubt there will be any BlackBerry devices released. If the Priv sells well enough than there will be more Android based Blackberrys, but no more BB10 devices regardless.

    question is... how many initial PRIV owner went back to a proper Classic or PP after a few weeks... being deeply disappointed with that device.

    I doubt it is the dedicated Blackberry user who will make the Priv a success, more than likely it will be the long time Android user and the Android user who was a Blackberry user from yesteryear. Dedicated Blackberry users couldn't sustain Blackberry anyway.

    I love the Classic and i have a whole pile of BlackBerrys. The Classic in blue is amazing, i just got mine last month. If i could only have one BlackBerry, it would be the Classic. Mine was on sale at BlackBerry for only $300.

    Absolutely my first Blackberry Device is the Classic. I have had it over a year and do not want to type on Glass. Most importantly though is how it works with Microsoft Outlook Excange, it works better than any other phone I have tried including Microsoft Win Phones! Also Blackberry Blend is the best tool and will stick with Blackberry for this as well. So here are the top reasons. 1. syncing Exchange. 2. Blend 3, keyboard, 4 build quality,5 form factor ( tried passport, Classic better for me) 6. looks and feel, If I had to would pay 500 bucs for the phone, hoping though I can pick up one cheaper if needed as of today I would buy another one nothing like it
