Classic Blackberry Devices To Stop Working Normally Tuesday by NGArmyTerrorist: 4:20pm On Jan 03, 2022
BlackBerry original announced that it would discontinue its phone service in September 2020.

BlackBerry will discontinue service for its classic devices on Tuesday, the company reminded users in a statement.

BlackBerry reminded its users in the statement, which was posted Dec. 22, of the impending shutdown of so-called legacy services.

"As a reminder, the legacy services for BlackBerry 7.1 OS and earlier, BlackBerry 10 software, BlackBerry PlayBook OS 2.1 and earlier versions, will no longer be available after January 4, 2022," the statement reads.

The shutdown means the phones will no longer reliably function for "data, phone calls, SMS and 9-1-1 functionality," BlackBerry said.


BlackBerry, which has moved away from phones to become a software company that focuses on providing "intelligent security software and services to enterprises and governments," originally announced in September 2020 that it would be discontinuing its phone service.
