Some cared about the Motion- too few to mention. TCL was hoping buy into a mid tier brand as opposed to upgrading their Alcatel brand .
They have stated that their hope is to grow their mid tier to 7 to 10 million units a year. I guess if they can achieve their goals with PKB phones then sure keep on with what they are doing.
I don’t think they have fleshed out all of the PKB possibilities yet. Slider, Passport and a 9900 come to mind but only if potential customers for these phones are not already satisfied.12-06-18 04:19 PMLike 0 - Want is a perceived need . The need could be the tactile experience, faster or more accurate typing - for that person. Perhaps the need is just to be different . Nostalgia plays a role here as well. What ever motivates a BlackBerry buyer , is what BlackBerry Mobile “needs “ to tap into.

Folks who follow the market came up with a number.
Of course if BlackBerry makes their next goal , 10 % of the Nigerian market, they might make their former goal.

- No. TCL Communications in hoping that BlackBerry becomes their premium brand. Potentially, there are higher profits in moving up the food chain. Perhaps they can reach their goals with the worlds best PKB phones . Who knows ? Not even Conite.12-07-18 07:55 PMLike 0
- I love the Key2 keyboard but was unable to get cell reception in Iowa for T-Mobile or AT&T. I am on Project Fi with a Pixel 3 XL. it is slick but Launcher, Hub, BlackBerry Virtual Keyboard, Calendar etc are all there (beta tester). BlackBerry still the best for business.12-07-18 10:02 PMLike 0

Companies who's only on numbers and money are programmed to fail.
If you give what consumer wants money will follow.
Maybe now you will get why you're forced to justify in every single post BBMo by saying they're not popular because they're making "a niche" device.. while reality is they are not popular because BBMo devices are **** compared by other competitors who's offering much better devices for same or half price?
BBMo will never create real demand and money while they only offers **** or "niche" devices if it's easier to you, every real consumer is saying this here on forum, on reviews and etc. It's time to hear it!12-09-18 06:56 AMLike 0 -
BBMo can't afford to loss-lead to build share.
The irony is that, knowing everything you have argued in advance, you STILL went out and bought a KEY device. You've demonstrated that there is a market for this device, despite your suggestion otherwise.Last edited by conite; 12-09-18 at 07:59 AM.

The phones will live or die based on how well they satisfy the market that there is, not what one person typing on a forum thinks they ought to do.
For me, the Key2 is perfect, it suits exactly what I require. For others, it won't, and they'll get something else. This emotional investment in a brand is just that. May it profit you.12-09-18 07:51 AMLike 7 - The whining on here is so tiresome. Buy the phone that works for you. If it's a BB, great, if it isn't, great.

I was first in line but didn't bought after they revealed:
PRIV - because of selfie camera. 2MP front facing camera, are you kidding me?? Later we find out a lot more savy decisions.
Original KEYone - because of 3 GB of RAM?? Thank someone who added 1 GB more for BE because we all know how laggy original KEYone are and a lie about "Pixel quality camera"
KEY2 - because of mono speaker and after camera performance revealed are you kidding me??
I supported BBMo then they upgraded KEYone BE by thinking "finally they get what we want" and we will get superb KEY2. Loved the keyboard, loved the design like Passport SE, but then they revealed mono speaker they blowed it once again it was a matter of time we all get that mono speaker was not the only one "savy" but also the camera facepalm. And the 🍒 of everything was the price facepalm of all facepalms.
Sorry, but I rather give money to Apple or Porsche Design because they deliver in every aspect they claims, but not for this joke which absolutely makes your expectations vs reality cry. BBMo makes a camouflaged low quality toy in superb design and PKB.
BBMo is a premium TCL brand? So make it PREMIUM damnit.cyberdoggie likes this.12-09-18 10:24 AMLike 1 - I bought KEYone BE.

At the time you got your KEYone, it was the only modern Android smartphone with a PKB. Plus it has the enhances security that you value so its a no-brainer lol12-10-18 08:16 AMLike 0 - Funny.
