Cool form factor, if it can run Linux.
Yeah, I’d use it if they can get basic usability working with standard Linux. I’d absolutely prefer a physical keyboard if I could run normal Linux CLI stuff on it.
Yeah. No interest in an Android.
I know we hate Reddit here but this site is just taken from and rephrasing this post, which is more informative (which at least they were nice enough to link to): https://www.reddit.com/r/blackberry/comments/1jmalqp/a_startup_is_bringing_back_an_updated_blackberry/
(There’s also a pretty damn good chance this is total BS - the poster says he “used AI to cover up their actual design”).
there is no way this is legit, guys.
if you’re jonsing for the physical keyboard, I don’t hate the titan slim. Its no key2, but it types. you can install blackberry keyboard on it, also.
if you want a better, more private OS, I hear GraphineOS is quite good, and you can install it on a Pixel, then use the Clicks Keyboard case with it. https://www.clicks.tech/en/products/clicks-for-google-pixel
This post is silly.
I want a Linux phone like the PinePhone, with better battery life, working basic features (MMS, quality mic and earpiece, etc), and a physical keyboard would be nice.
Until then, I’m using GrapheneOS as you mentioned. I honestly don’t want Android, I just a mini Linux laptop that doesn’t suck at being a phone.
Clicks keyboard is looking pretty awesome. I don’t have a device to buy one or use.
yeah, me neither…
Ikr? Ppl are hyped about something the equivalent of a Walkman.
No don’t misunderstand, if BB made a new phone I’d preorder. I just think this post couldn’t be more full of shit
This is very interesting to say the least
Nope.
The qnx os was the modern blackberry phone. They lost the plot moving to android.
I sure do miss BlackBerry 10
BB would be a good alternative nowadays. No Android though.
It would be android though because the last BlackBerry was the days of every phone having it’s own UI or OS is dead
It’s a shame. Tired of Android and iOS.
My daily driver is still Windows 10 Mobile.
Touch screen keyboards are absolute rubbish. I sure hope this is true and the OS is BlackBerry as well.
Swype enabled keyboards are awesome though. I loved my BB, but the screen real estate that a digital keyboard clears up is quite significant.
If it runs on Android. Hell no.
Hype will always sell, and also will always disappear
