bro it shows majority of Nigerians are largely ignorant, they just buy what is in vogue and trending at that moment, most Nigerians insult blackberry, ask them to give you 5 reasons blackberry is bad and they would go blank, a device so secure, easy to easy, straight to the point about things, gives you a perfect hub for activities, the dtek won't be with us anytime soon but good thing for the merge, i have used all types of blackberry's and android also, had to go back to my blackberry and fell in love with the little Q10 then Z30...it's a good thing, tech savvy guys still exist like you on this forum, i was already getting bored with nairaland hence why i rarely comment on here...


actually that's why I got the z10 cos I could use android apps like aldiko etc., but when Facebook was phased out I was unable to get a Facebook app integrated with my hub. hence my fb was useless so what assurance do we have if we side loading whatsapp that it would integrate into the hub. but Yay 6 extra months hopefully wailer gets it right and naira stabilises by then

Good news smiley. Was planning on getting another phone. But I'm relieved now.have got more time.
I actually did get another phone recently. Hasn't arrived though. Got it online and all.

Didn't even think for one second about throwing away my BlackBerry device. I'm in love with it like kilode.

You deserve a peck! My Q10 is my P.A, my professional, business and personal mails; same for twitter are all in one place. I don't need to open several mails every morning...increased productivity, ease of handling different applications and lots more are the reasons, I would never leave a BlackBerry Qwerty pad till it breathes its last.

Babe ur so weird in a cool way, wink u actually understand the Q10 and the idea behind the blackberry 10 and 10.2 OS, very few guys and babes rarely get that far, now u officially have a BB 10 friend courtesy of nairaland but seriously tho, most people don't know jack about what a smart phone is really about, the major different between the android and blackberry is that android is a more flexible OS and more fun but if u want fun mixed with productivity then the BB 10 is it, the Q10 is almost perfect but the Z30 is also great, if you love qwerty like i do then that Q10 is the best device for you.

Nice points you raised dear, i would always advice get an android by the side but never leave your blackberry, i mean the Q10, Z30 upwards tho if you love a blackberry..

the bb hub you people are screaming about is available on android.
even bb has given up and jumped ship to android.
tell me why whatsapp should still bother with a discontinued os?


6 months is close by! lol

lol, BB hub is available on android, oh gosh i just fell down and started laughing in Swahili and Korean grin grin grin grin grin grin both at once, no offence do you understand what a HUB means or when a statement says 'A Hub of activities'? guy on all android, u have to go to your apps or app drawer to open them or view mails, the HUB is a BB10 thing, bro let me ask use, name 5 things you do with your android device that helps or enhances productivity? i know the answers, 70% of Nigerian android users don't know half of what their android or blackberry phones can do and even if you tell them, they'd still reset back to factory setting mode of Facebook, Instagram, Candy Crush, take pics and use youtube once in a while and they come online screaming they hate blackberry, don't get me wrong, i love android, i had a tab i practically over loved and all but i have used both and i can tell you after i get bored with all those things, i just want a device i can hold and take a peak and see all my personal mails, office mails, what's happening on cnn, channels tv, twitter, instagram, my latest reviews without actually opening the apps, just a peak and i can even reply tweets, DM's and mails from that little peak called blackberry hub with no distraction like an android would ....

If they had carried out their threat on those phones, What'sapp may become worthless maybe many people will turn to 2go grin grin grin grin grin . After all the only reason many people are on what'sapp is because its a cross-platform app once it's no longer the same users would hold on to whatever is in the market that would give them results

Bro if you took out time to actually read through the link, you would learn it's a big plus to bb 10, android doesn't have it, blackberry made a version for android with only 30 days free trial then u have to pay or have loads of ads as u type or do anything, it's like telling Nigerians that they have to pay for Candy crush or facebook on their android, bro, 80% would stop using it and ur using that as a point here, nigerians that love only free apps..
