How do u expect us president to use android, dnt u think, and there are nothing hackers cannot get.
if google sell my data thats nt my prob, God knows wht i use my phone for. And wht make u think blackberry dnt sell yours lamxtopher

Now that's the problem, cos you don't worry about security doesn't mean others don't.. for Christ's Sake I do.. I do need Privacy that's why it's called 'MY PHONE'

Blackberry doesn't cos if they do, the US and BRITAIN wouldn't have adopted blackberry as their main device for communication..

Oh I forgot.. Even Germany..

iykrichie:
I backed out off BlackBerry and fell in love with HTC G2 the first 4G phone since 2011(when most of u were either still on BlackBerry or symbian OS). I have used lots of phones/OS and from different brands. I never used the iphone and its personal.

Well categorically speaking we have 3 flavours and types oof mobile experience that are unique and would appeal to numerous users who know what they want. 99.9 % of nigerian mobile users buy their phones from recommendations and word of mouth sadly these users don't know the difference.

We have the android (open version of iOS), the BBOS and Windows phone.

BlackBerry and Windows phone might not appeal to the typical youth or fun loving user.. and that's cos they are primarily built for business/enterprise minded professionals, and recently have been trying to get into the non professional market for users. This have not been very successful due to lack of quality and appealing apps (mostly fremiums).

Anyways I recommended a design like the BlackBerry Classic, waited for its announcement/launch and finally sold my HTC to purchase it. I own a lumia, the BlackBerry Classic and a Yoga Android tab. Best of all world's. I enjoy my mails and chats on BlackBerry, I do games, movies, media and microsoft app/cloud on Lumia, I do internet, reading and even more movies and media BT play with my tab.


It's all about choice. BlackBerry would never have won in the touchscreen market.. but they have the best touch and TYPE.. anyday anytime.. so if ur choice is the Keyboard over the screen.. the Q series are okay... and the new BlackBerry classic is fantastic.. a model that corrected all the ills and disappointment I had about the BlackBerry brand. A perfect definition of what a Bold6 ought to be.

Well Said..

Collinz2:
fun and unserious users. See as i dey laugh u. How iz windows and blackberry secure, if hackers want 2 get it they will, perhaps they dnt have much user slike android while wil somebody want 2 hack its os.

You guys judge Security by just apps, where on earth have you heard a blackberry 10 device was hacked?

Ignorance at work

[quote author=Collinz2 post=31795031][/quote]You call not installing apps from other sources 'Security'.. For God damn sake, Google play alone has got theist malicious apps on earth.. About 60% of apps on GPlay are fake, rip off, malicious or unfinished.. I bet you don't k ow what security is..

BlackBerry devices uses what is called TSL Encryption security Layers..

Allowing users transfer data in an encrypted format.. even if hackers gain access to such data, it's uncompromisable..

Can't you see, even the US president and British Prime Minister both use a BlackBerry phone because of its high security profile..

Google might be mining your data and selling em to security agencies and you called that 'SECURITY'..? Hell no..

I trust blackberry dude..

unmask:
#bbsucks in all ramifications of the word suck

I presume you dont know the meaning of the word 'Suck'

Anyone Heard of QNX?

Well it's owned by Blackberry.. (I bet 70% of your don't know)

Talking about official releases here

Blackberry 10.3.1 - http://m.crackberry.com/blackberry-1031

- BlackBerry 10.3.1 marks the third major release of the BlackBerry 10 platform that was initially launched on January 30, 2013. BlackBerry 10 has continued to improve and evolve and OS 10.3.1 is the biggest change thus far. Once downloaded, users will gain access to incredible new enhancements, including BlackBerry Blend, BlackBerry Assistant, battery boosting technology, plus improvements to the BlackBerry Hub, calendar, camera, multimedia and more. This latest version also introduces dual app stores, offering access to hundreds of thousands of apps through the BlackBerry World storefront and the Amazon Appstore. BlackBerry 10 OS 10.3.1 offers a fresh look that incorporates updated icons and an instant action bar so that each user's most commonly accessed functions are in the center of their screen. and more!

Android 4.4 or 5.0 - http://m.androidcentral.com/lollipop

- Android 5.0 Lollipop comes with yet another interface design tweak, this time coming with the name "Material Design." The design language builds heavily on some of the interface experimentation Google has done with Google Now, leveraging the "card" metaphor throughout the Lollipop interface. Cards of various colors and sizes appear throughout the system, with different colors and shadows providing a feeling of depth in the interface. Apps can respond to touch with different shadows and ripple effects to make the interface feel as though it is being manipulated directly by users, and bold new colors palettes give apps distinctive personalities. Animations are supposed to reflect user interaction, not just happen at random.

IOS 8.1 - http://m.imore.com/ios-81

- iOS 8.1, codenamed OkemoTaos, is the first full point release to Apple 2014 mobile operating system. It's being released on October 20, 2014 and, in addition to bug fixes and performance enhancements, will bring support for Apple Pay in the U.S., Continuity features like call and SMS relay, a return of the Camera Roll, iCloud Photo Library, and more!

iOS 8.1 ships as standard on the iPad Air 2 and iPad mini 3, and is a free update for all devices that support iOS 8, including the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus and previous models.

Continuity features with the Mac require OS X Yosemite.

Windows Phone 8.1 - http://m.windowscentral.com/windows-phone-81

- Windows Phone 8.1, codenamed ‘Blue’, is the latest update to the Microsoft Windows Phone operating system. It was announced at Microsoft’s Build 2014 conference in April, with new devices like the Lumia 930 arriving later that month.

A Preview for Developers program was also announced at Build, with availability for the general public arriving on April 14th, 2014. It has been estimated that over 1.5 million devices have the 8.1 Preview installed after the first week.

All current Windows Phone 8 devices, including the Lumia 520, qualify to receive the update, which is expected to commence on July 15, though it will vary from carrier to carrier and could span 8 weeks or more.

Nokia devices are also receiving new firmware specific for Lumia phones called 'Lumia Cyan'. This firmware comes packaged with the official Windows Phone 8.1 over-the-air update.

Rules -
- You must have used/handle not less than 3 of the OS mentioned for you to post your review
- No Negativity and being biased
- Whatever OS you use is your choice so don't try to lure others because you use it..
- Mention what makes you like the current operating system you're using and a distinctive feature that make it stand out.

* For me (not being biased) I've come to love the Blackberry 10.3.1 Os. I'm an Online Administrator and also a student.. the OS has made me more efficient than any other OS.. I've owned a Z10, Q10, IPhone 5c, Galaxy S4 and currently using the BlackBerry Z30 and Samsung Galaxy KZoom

Two Feature I find very distinctive about the BlackBerry 10.3.1 OS is the BlackBerry Hub and the Keyboard..

Blackberry Hub handles all my Text, calls, Social Media App (Including Instagram), Email, Instant Messengers all in one place without notice to open any app.. it's Fast, Efficient and Splendid..

https://s1.postimg.org/xad8c70yn/IMG_20150319_131251.png

The Keyboard with it's predictive text is another thing that attracts me to the BlackBerry 10.3.1 OS.
You can type with confidence of not typing the wrong spellings.. With swipe gestures you can delete text, input predictions and Special characters on the go.. it's pretty amazing ..

https://s1.postimg.org/a3flygja7/IMG_20150319_131558.png

Never the less, I didn't say other OS(s) are not good or they ain't attractive or they've not got outstanding features..

But the above mentioned attracted me to the OS more than any other thing..

Here's my general review on this OS(es)

Blackberry 10.3.1 - 81/100
Android 5.0 - 85/100
iOS 8.1 - 79/100
WP 8.1 - 65/100

Posted from my BlackBerry Z30..

BlackBerry’s biggest remaining challenge isn’t with finances (as the company has stabilized and already shows a profit), or direction (the company a roadmap and their company has established divisions), no, its biggest challenge is dealing with the public’s archaic perception of them.

charlsecy:
The cost of BB10 subsciption is very high.


It was an act of desperation... If they hadn't released BBM to the public, BlackBerry might have been buried....

The number of BBM users was falling, so they had no choice but to open up...

This guy is daft..

Did you just say High?

3GB for 1K is High? 9GB for 3K is high?.. SMH..

MrKodak:
I have used all kinds of blackberry in my time & can't seem to get enough. I just love the gaddam device, the name itself kills. Different strokes for different folks but as for me & my household, we will always follow blackberry.

I second that

That blackberry Porshe passport is not from blackberry.. it's a design concept from one of blackberry fans..

You need to tell the truth sometimes..

Stop posting fake

Even the Glide has not been given a name yet..

Maccoy1:
don't mind them let them keep deceiving them selfs

It's a Porshe design phone and not made for Mere Consumers.. that's phone has got some security purposes.. so don't even think of getting it..

You blab cos you don't know the value

BB10 Phones ain't made for Kids or Game Freaks (No Quotes) but for Professionals and High class Enterprise Users, that's what so many Andrats and isheeps don't know..
