    Guys, for the past 3 months I've been trying hard to get the keyone and every time something happen

    Finally today I called a branch in Saudi Arabia (btw I live in Bahrain) and they said they have one only so I asked them to reserve it for me. And Im going to go there tomorrow and get it which will be a 2 hours from the place I live in.

    So my question is.

    Is there any reason that I shouldn't get the keyone, or anything that you guys hate about the keyone ? I really miss using a physical keyboard

    Thanks in advance guys

    I would get it. I have had the KeyOne since it's release here in Canada and have had no issues. Reception is about the same as my previous BlackBerry in Toronto (it's awfull with Rogers in my condo, but great elsewhere. Have tried Telus up north at my Parent's cottage is reception is perfect. Very provider dependant ). Love the Keyboard and got used to BlackBerry Android. I see no reason you should not get it. Enjoy.

    It may take you a week or so to get fully acclimated to using a PKB again, but once you do (man you'll love the shortcuts, too) you will be very pleased. It is an amazing device. Definitely get it.

    I would have a little chat regarding warranty claims with the store... the phone is good/nice (depending on your usage and demands regarding speed, performance etc) but there is a real issue with the screen for example... chances are that you could need a repair/exchange if you are one of the unlucky owners of a glue-less keyone... so at least ask and be sure about that and/or consider a third party warranty...

    True, but they had the phone from 2 days only, So I think it's from the new production so should have better adhesive

    Even when what you say makes sense, I wouldn't assume it is, 100%, a glue-edition keyone... just be sure for your peace of mind

    Funny you should ask as that is the first time I've added a "signature" to a post. It's actually a signature from one of my email accounts that I copied to the clipboard and then just pasted. We'll call it a poor man's signature. Haha

    Lol, sad that the app doesn't work like it should and we have to do things like that. I should make a meme: "If you ever feel useless, remember the CB Forums app has a place to set your signature." Lol

    I am very happy with my KEYᴼᴺᴱ, after almost 2 months. I had a cheap android before, but it was on Marshmellow, and I didn't like it as much as I now like Nougat. Yes, it is not the same as BB10, but after getting used to it, it feels right to me.

    I put all of my most used apps on the home screen, and all of my accounts linked to the hub. Then I moved the Phone icon to the second screen, since I put the Phone on P shortcut. This is what works for me as my daily setup.

    You can fine tune your setup to be what works for you.

    A question to all KEYone users-screenshot_20170730-123839-1-.jpg
