No, not sure but there's no app for Blend, and no.

I know the reddit AMA said the File Manager was there. It is not and the BB Help app says you should download one from Play Store.

How did you get it, does it feel like an $800.00 phone

Not built in but I believe this option is available from other vendors in the Play Store.

Is the bottom speaker stereo or is the top speaker also used for audio?

If you play music it comes out of the bottom speaker.

How is the front camera. Objectively?

I'd say it is 'as good as the Passport' which I think is massively disappointing. Blackberry users still cannot take nice selfies.

I don't use droid much but in BB10.. we have options for dark calendar, contacts, text, BBM, and whatsapp.... are those options available?

The back camera is good and the dual flash is great. As good as the Passport camera if not better.

Dark hub?
Lithuanian language?
Is squircle back?

No dark hub.
No Lithuanian in preinstalled options but sure you can download that.
Loading is shown by a circle not a squircle.

Does it feel like an $800.00 phone

That is objective. It feels nice. It looks great. People ask all the time what phone I am using. It is "as premium" as the Passport although one or two things about the software experience could be improved.

Morning...how do the pop up windows work...are you able to reply to a BBM or text right from them or does it open the app? Also how has better life been for you so far assuming you have had it long enough to answer that question?

[sayf777]

I apologise if its too much trouble I have been able to- with a few Samsung phones- use USB OTG with a USB powered 1/2TB hardrives without having to power it via a y splitter cable. So in others words can the phone with a USB otg cable power a hardrive (not just a flash drive)?

thanks for doing this!

How does the keyboard feel, comparable to the passport or to the classic?

It is very similar to BB10. With email, BBM, SMS and some others you tap the bar at the top of the screen and can reply straight away.
Battery life has been generally good with one or two occasions where it has drained very fast. Some people say that may be an Android bug. Typically though it gets you thru a day solidly just like the Passport.

No dark mode for any apps.

Can the slider be used for phone control, i.e. pickup and hangup?

[privberry]

Sorry buddy I have no way of checking that.

Whatsapp is integrated in the Hub?

No. The Hub is a mess.

How does the keyboard feel, comparable to the passport or to the classic?

It is the fantastic keyboard we know and love. Most like the Q10 I think. It naturally feels small compared to the Passport but then it is smaller. It is easy to type on and in just over a week I have had it I constantly pop the keyboard out to reply to messages.

Is priority hub there?

No. I never used it in BB10 so I do not know exactly what it should do but I cannot see any mention of Priority in the Hub.

[ToniCipriani]

Is pinch zoom implemented for the keyboard in the final software revision?
