1) physical keyboard
2) more fluid OS and user interface
3)personal choice, but even though different, the shape seems to be more comfortable in the hands.
4)LED indicator
5)better to read article and emails on. More realistic format instead of 5 words per a line.
6) Passport is now an antique! Lol

dont forget the battery

The tradeoff is letterboxing everywhere, though.

I would address the Passport as the very best smartphone that has ever existed. You need to own it to understand.

I'm not too sure if Passport is the only smartphone that has a built-in FM radio that you can use anywhere without incurring any network data charges.

It looks like all BlackBerry 10 phones except the Z10 have FM radio. http://m.crackberry.com/how-use-fm-radio-blackberry-10

I think you are right but this thread is about Passport vs android and apple phones.

The square screen may be awkward at first but you'll learn to love it eventually - for reading, browsing, etc.
The keyboard is great, especially with its capacitive feature..
The battery life is excellent..
Lastly, it's uniqueness.. =D

built-in FM

A lot of phones have these, but they're disabled by the carrier

Well, I guess it's a point of view and a desire for the functionality it offers . I like my PPSE for these reasons: I prefer the BlackBerry10 App permission system over all others. It allows me to decide a level of what to share, I haven't experience elsewhere. Likewise I enjoy single apps that do multiple tasks.

And the BlackBerry PKB System, were a pre-set or assigned key can be used as a Shortcuts to implement those apps. Along with a Back-lit PKB ,that can be used as a Track Pad in conjunction with a larger display to read more and input on a larger scale. Which includes a large battery life to get it done. Throw in a beautiful, sturdy construction and better camera than BlackBerry "was" known for and a larger CPU.
So, it's the package deal that the Passport offers; a combination of hardware and software. And many of the functionalities of Passport lives on in newer BlackBerrys. But not at the new Passport lower pricing.

A BlackBerry Fan!!!

Tegar, to use the FM radio you need to connect your headphone to your device because you headphone operates as your radio antenna. Open the music app and tap the pop up menu button at the bottom left select Radio.

And what do u guys think if u compare this phone to any of android phones and apple phones which got all the apps to run and also many of them are free to use and they can also support google play servicess what about that and what do u guys think of it

The BlackBerry PP SE is easily the best phone ever created to date and I've had a Priv also.

Sure OS 10 helps this but it's also how it feels the way it looks and the creative factor as well.

1. It is a unique form factor which will attract attention. But this uniqueness come with both advantages and disadvantages. It just depends on your needs
2. At launch it was a truly flagship phone in terms of specs. And as a matter of fact it is the only BB10 device that could have been considered a flagship device at launch.

There are a couple thing that make the Passport special. The first being the name. Many phone today just have boring numbers like iPhone 5,6,7 or Galaxy S4,5,6,7,8 its just another iteration, whereas the "Passport", "Classic", "PRIV", "Leap" all have names which i like.

The next would be the physical dimensions coupled with a keyboard. Very few devices today have keyboards and not a 16:9 aspect ratio. (mostly because Android requires it) but still. Its nice to have something 'different'

Obviously the Software OS its running makes its special. Very fluid, very 'productive' and keeps things nicely organised in the HUB.

Personally I don't use that many apps. Most of what I need is in BBW and the few other Androids were installed following Cobalt fix - Big THANKS to the man.
So the Passport will be with me for a quite a while.

Just replace the battery.

[Zeratul57]

Get a SE and sell the old for repair.
