The phone looks so flat and unappealing. It's even clear that its ugly from the way they advertise it. Just visit the porsche design page to see their advertising concept. The phone itself is relegated to the background, the eye catcher happens to be the female model holding the phone.
The model is holding the phone away from the cam and you're subjected to watching her beautiful face rather than the phone you came to see. If they had a better design, they would have used the phone as the central feature or at least give it a prominent position in the advert.

What do you guys think about the design?

What counts is not just d exterior, Its d unseen dah really counts,

Just as ugly as d empathy, Buh mehn, E carry!

I understand its a bold 5 with an ugly exterior. Why anyone would pay $2,300 for this is beyond me.

i even heard dat dis fone is goes for btw 350k - 400k . My qstn is; can you download food from it?

The phone might be ugly o, but I wudn't know what the pleasure it gives once in my palm

what does it carry differently from others?

Ugly looking phone, worst is, nothing inside to compensate for d drab looks.

@immanuelle: if you want to buy a phone because of interiors ( cpu, graphics, etc) then blackberry isn't an option. We all know why we own blackberries. Cheap, easy communication given the poor network services we are rendered in Africa plus the fact that its a fad here.

Even here in the UK, we are still laughing at the Idea behind it.

The phone is about the ugliest thing i have seen(gadget wise), am waiting to hear of the killer apps, or the out of the world technology that makes it cost so much! And its so amazing that blackberry is doing so poorly around the world and we are making such a huge fuss about it over her!


They will soon do advert and say "THANK YOU NIGERIA"

the idea behind it is very simple, the phone has the Nigerian market as its target, in a coupla days, it will be seen as a 'position statement' in a gathering of 'who is who' in the Nigerian context. they know we have some dumb folks around and about with no brilliant ideas of what to invest in other than trying to outdo each other in fad related rubbish. Mtchewwwwwwwww

Features are exactly the features of Bold 5. This is just a lot more expensive and looks horrible

there is nothin spectacular, e go dey hang

but wait ooooo, this device is sold for whooping $3499.99.

I quite agree!

There is a generator embedded inside the phone. Once NEPA goes of, you plug it to your eletricity mains, pronto, Power flows into your home.
it will even power your AC/Inverter

You've got a good point right there and other messaging Apps like Mozart and WhatsApp are taking over their Niche.

nokia 603 is better than dis phone and its 38k.

@mekaboy: I used flat as an adjective to describe lack of aesthetics. I wasn't talking about the form factor.

Anyone oo pls i nid a cool blackberry fone any1 dat wnt to dash it out

i don't like the design too but very soon, you will see the blackberry ladies flaunting it after they might have,

QUESTIONS U SHOULD ASK BEFORE BUYING THE NEW BLACKBERRY PORSCHE MAGNUM (for 380,000 naira) (1) Does it download food? (2) Does it fly? (3) Does it transfer you via bluetooth to another country (4)Does the Battery get better per use? (5) Does it come with unlimited BIS? (6) Does it appreciate in value like gold (7) does it have Jesus's pin? ( can it download money (9) can it download Visa to US? If it does not perform any of the above functions, please don't kill yourself, Rather go buy land for ur village!

Seriously, that Porsche of a BB has nothing to offer both in design and features. No difference from Bold 5. But then, trust nigerians, the low brains mostly d ladies, they will buy it just to be in d klass.

i just bought mine,
