    Out of curiosity, when people talk of K1 alternatives, why is the DTEK60 missing from those conversations? I don't own one... but it's a solid device, no?

    No keyboard is usually the biggest disqualifier.

    Understood... but S8 and G6 seem to be part of the alternative conversation. What do they have against the DTEK60 that they don't have against those devices?

    Likely. I just find it odd that *some* BlackBerry fans seem to be blind to other BlackBerry offerings, when PKB is no longer a requirement.

    I enjoy using both Priv and Dtek60 . I like that BlackBerry gives you a choice PKB or VKB.
    There is no other brand like them.
    Blackberry keep Be Being unique .
    Oh I don't understand why the BlackBerry Key-One would be in the same category with the Samsung and Apple ,when their phones are $300-$400 more than BlackBerry. Crazy....look at this Key-One, don't you think it is a premium solid device?

    To be fair the DTEK60 barely existed. What I mean is only CrackBerry readers actually knew of it. The rest of the world never heard of it.

    Total lack of carrier (or accessory) support is another factor, yeah.

    The Dtek60 is like a mystery device no advertising or promos to speak of its just there if you search for it. I got one and it's been awesome.

    I just came across the 60 when searching for an alternative to my leap. From the first read I was hooked. Did some research, signed up to crack berry and now the 60 is a daily driver.

    Enjoy your 60. Most underrated device for its price point.

    Thanks for that. Even my wife is empressed. The map loading is super quick when used. She doesn't have sat nav in her car shows use the 60. Great all round imho.

    The DTEK60 is the best BlackBerry ever made, imo. The one significant drawback is the lack of the pkb. It's a stud of a device. I cannot stand the flawed emails and messages that I send out inadvertently though, and multiple times per day, because of the frigging vkb.
