BlackBerry may no longer be the undisputed champion of the enterprise smartphone market, but products like the 1.5GHz dual-core BlackBerry Leap show that it's still worth keeping an eye on.
The Leap's most appealing feature is not its hardware or surprisingly low cost, but its laser-like focus on security. BlackBerry 10, the OS powering the Leap, features encryption support, anti-malware protection and - just in case - a suite of backup, wipe and restore tools. For those who don't want to compromise on security or privacy in exchange for frugality, the BlackBerry Leap is the phone to buy.
It also supports BlackBerry Blend, a nifty-sounding productivity service that wirelessly and automatically syncs content - including email, texts, documents, calendars, BlackBerry Messenger conversations and media files - between the phone and a PC or tablet
