    I just showed my passport to a pharmaceutical rep. He was the new owner of the iphone7. He was also an ex-blackberry user and he looked at my passport with a lot of envy. After handling it and hearing me describe its functions, plus hearing after the current big sale at BlackBerry, he decided to return his iPhone and get a passport.

    Success story! And an indication that is still a real market out there for BlackBerry pkb devices. It is just the lack of marketing that has hurt bb.

    Passport!
    Complete lie.
    Now these people are converting iPhone 7 buyers to BB 10. Lmao.
    If there's a .1% he did do that, then he was duped and you wasted his money

    Chill pal, it's not all fake. There's no denying the Passport has a great battery and is really productive - my Q10 is half the size and not nearly as powerful and is really productive itself, so the Passport definitely is too.

    Because people lie on the forums. They need to justify their purchase. Simple.
    You'll find a lot of characters here.
    1. "People were so amazed and I get so many compliments on my Passport". Lie. Nobody cares.
    2. "Battery lasts 2-3 days!" Lie. Lasted me 1 day.
    3. "It's a work horse, I knock out my work and spread sheets". Lie. 80% showing off don't even have a corporate job. They probably knock out junk mail all day.

    Lastly. If these guys are happy with BB, great...but lying about trading in iPhones and what not...it's ridiculous. iOS and android are light years ahead of BB, even when you're knocking out emails and spread sheets.
    1. False. Most of the person that were close to me were very excited with my passport.

    2. Depends on the usage some even knock out to 3 days, u maybe a heavy user that's why It lasted a day.

    3. I also don't have the corporate job, but it makes me more productive using BlackBerry rather than iPhone at my job.

    Lastly, it's true I traded my iPhone 6 with passport. Why? Because iPhone were hard to compromise, short battery life, & a time consuming OS which takes 4 tap to forward an email compared to 2 taps. It's unproductive due to the easy access to the social media. If u are relying on social media for what's going around in ur town that's suit u, but if u are relying on social media for what's going around in "the world", then u better searching for the better alternative like news app or so. That's just my opinion, u may have different point why u said so.

    And how many of them did buy passport?

    I think productive isn't about handling emails or making alarms in calendar with less tap.

    because they didn't understand the technology & assumed that the most "popular" brand are the best like iPhone, samsung, oppo etc. Some of them are more to entertainment so me myself doesn't recommend for them to buy a passport. The passport only do serious stuff & need productivity but most of my friends doesn't need any productivity, they only need entertainment hence android & iPhone are the best for them. I only guide them to what they need, not to what I want. If another businessman ask me what phone to buy to do serious stuff, I would highly recommend them to get a passport.

    Of course it is not entirely less tap bcause it is an example. U may have different definition for productivity, but productivity for me is the most less time required to complete a task even a second count.

    Your experience is not the same as everyone else's. Ironically, you are lying when you claim everyone who prefers a Passport over other phones is lying.

    Get the phone you want and be happy. And it's okay to let others get the phone they want and be happy, too, even if they choose differently than you.

    Never buy a phone based on features or functionality you think or hope it might get sometime in the future, get a phone based on what it can do today.

    If the Passport SE doesn't do what you want out-of-the-box today then don't get one.

    It's pretty simple.

    I ordered a Passport SE last week because it has the features and functionality I want in a smartphone. I can't wait to get it!

    Complete TRUTH. Whether or not he goes through with it is another matter. The guy checks by the office every few weeks so I can update. And I did mention he was familiar with BlackBerry so he wasn't exactly a neophyte.

    I agree with you that that vast majority of people would not return an iphone7 for a passport, but this was an unusual case so I thought I'd share.

    And my passport can last me 2 days on a full charge with normal usage.

    Kept my Passport as a backup and something to show off with while attending a high profile meeting or gathering. Classic has remained my daily driver - boy do I like it. Bought and used iphone SE and 7, I hated my life while using them.

    After a week with it, it's amazing beauty, keyboard, and looks, the lack of apps is sending me back to android. Using the browser for fb and twitter are horrendous. It's too bad. I hope they can bounce back

    I can see fb but why would you use the browser for twitter? There are a few very good third party apps for twitter and the stock app is alright.
