    Of all the mascots BlackBerry could go with, he ain't a bad one, eh? They're certainly the most ethical of the bunch... ( also funny how liberty==security in tech ) .

    I would hope BB would employ similar wit in their advertising and marketing. Someone with a twitter account please tweet that quote to Thurber? lol.

    Dear all,
    as I said in title, please compare BB DTEK 50 with Alcatel Idol 4, where's the difference ?
    Step further, why to buy BB then ? Because of its name ?
    BB offers more security ? LOL
    As a salesmen for years, I know that if you have some new product to sell/offer you have to outstand from competition. With DTEK as a feature BB is trying to do that, will they have any success ? Doubt that !!
    This is not real BB, where's the physical keyboard. PKB is the only thing that makes BB different.
    This phone wasn't designed for the average consumer. It was designed in mind of the Corporate Accounts. Iphone, Galaxy, and Priv are all $500 plus dollar phones. The Dtek50 is $299. If I owned a company and wanted to save money then I would purchase the Dtek50 for my employees.

    According to spec sheets, the DTEK50 can accept higher capacity memory cards (2 TB vs 512 GB), I'm not sure if this is a software or hardware change.

    People actually WILL buy the phone because of the BlackBerry name on it. Sadly a lot more people won't, just because of the name as well. Tech-enthused people that post of forums are definitely not representative of the majority who are the ones driving the current smartphone market. Most people just buy a Samsung or iPhone because that's what everyone else does. It's all about brand image now.

    will some1 kindly tell me as 2 which 1 to buy -
    dtek 50 / blackphone 2.
    or shud i wait for argon mercury with d Android N?
    Just my 2 cents: the Blackphone 1 was trash. I bought one expecting ridiculously good security and they couldn't be bothered patching it often. Specs were weak and it made me resent silent circle. You had to pay for their apps and they'd discontinue them with no notice. It was a joke. Never used a blackphone 2 but after the experience with a Blackphone one, I wouldn't want to.

    The spec for 2 TB cards has been around for a while, I don't think any have been mass produced yet though.

    Not sure if it make any difference, but have your DTEK50 connecting with WIFI only, and see if the update come down after reboot.
