    If I had to choose between the two I'd choose KEY2.

    I want a physical keyboard.

    The fact that it's $350 cheaper is also a big reason.

    The crazy thing is that these threads seem to get more traffic than some other more pressing threads that discuss software issues and updates. Unbelievable.

    Actually I think there are not much issues on key2. But a thread like this is keeping forums alive. Hence, a way to keep moving.......

    More spam. I have reported the thread so it can be closed down. In fact I am considering adding this thread to the wikepedia entry for spam as a great example of what spam is.

    Let me answer your question though.

    If you go on an apple forum they will tell you to buy an iphone.

    If you go on a blackberry forum they will tell you to buy blackberry.

    You basically need to know what your needs are, research the phones, preferably play with both then make your own mind up.

    Agreed, how can you even compare the two? If you want to compare the XS to something compare it to the other 40 slab options out there.

    Whats the point of this thread???

    But there is one thing that really bugged me when I saw the Apple event today... iPhone XR is only 750$ with an incredible camera, probably 5 years of updates and the A12 bionic.

    I know for the Key2 you have a physical keyboard... but everything else doesn’t even come close.

    What kind of spam is this.
    If they will answer on blackberry forum as a blackberry who want to answer this question he will answer if you don't like the question don't come here to post your comment.
    Maybe you think this is a spam and some people they don't think like you.

    $1500 for a cell phone...OK, actually, a PDA. I am a tech idiot, but my thinking is that for $1500, and the size, people are using these things as their "primary device"...and very often using it instead of a laptop, an iPad, a tablet, etc. I just can't believe that with technology, the speed and turnover of information, etc. -- that the prices of these things are going up, and exponentially.

    If they can sell it why not? When Apple launched the iPhone X last year at 999$, everyone was sceptical. People thought that they would discontinue the X, remember?

    Well they did! But replaced it with the XS, but kept the exact same pricing since they sold much more than expected.

    Apple is in an envious position cause they push people to the high margin iPhone XS and they just pick the parts from that phone... reuse it to do the cheaper iPhone XR. 750$ for a flagship camera and processor! That’s just 100$ more than the Key2.

    The iPhone has a nice screen and camera, but the keyboard doesn't even come close.

    And frankly, iOS doesn't come close either.

    I think I might skip the pixel this year. Not sure which two to keep out of the Key2, Note9, or the XS Max.

    First decide if the PKB is really important to you. If not, then it's a question of iOS or Android between the other 2 options.

    Haha I hate iOS. It’s seriously locked down, menus are confusing, app settings doesn’t make sens. But (beside the earlier versions of iOS 11) the fluidity and stability of the device is beyond anything else out there.

    Functionally, phones just don't do enough to justify prices much above $500. As a consumer, people are free to buy whatever they like, but I'd spend $5k+ for a workstation-grade laptop long before I'd spend $750 for a phone.
