Using the KEYone in 2022 - Review

The Blackberry KEYone was among the first Android smartphones by Blackberry in an attempt to recapture some of the markets and ignite the spark Blackberry once had. The physical keyboard is reminiscent of simpler days in the smartphone world, but how does it hold up in 2022?

Thank you for providing this info. I am one of those few that is thinking to buy this in 2022. I have tried iPhone and Samsung, but I can't move on from my first love, Blackberry.

This phone has such a cool design, I'd love to see an updated version as well as the passport but sadly that will never happen.

Just watched this for the first time and YES I do use a key one in 2022. All works fine, is a little slow but thats ok for what I need. If you live in the UK than I would say yep it is still a very useable. Cheers for the vid

I don't think that even when Blackberry was on top of the market, anyone bought them for the camera quality.

I just picked up a black edition keyone with the 4gb option, and other than the battery life being expectedly degraded, it's perfectly fine. No issues with sim services, and the keyboard looks/feels still like new. Love the capacitive keyboard for scrolling and the shortcuts. My Unihertz Titan has those things too, and the ideas clearly came from the Blackberry devices. I haven't found it to be laggy at all, so I must have lucked out because used devices this old are always a gamble.

I actually have all BB devices starting from Bold 3 and up :) I also have the Porsche Design the 3 of them, brand new in boxes 😍 as for the K1 i have both versions 3 and 4 GB, and also have the K2 silver edition. Bottom line, i am a BB fan and can’t live without, if only i can be their CEO for couple of months to show you how to revive this device 😏. Cheers

Blackberry are not for watching movies.

I used a good part of 2022 key one ... now I have key 2 LE with a cracked window ... sometimes the torch goes on by itself ... but otherwise I like it

[wolf-cist]

i use it since i got used to it not having so much time for social apps and stuff so it does the job

[chltmdwp]

I have the 3gb version. It was hard to use back then, now the lags are constant issues when I open a couple-few apps.

I tried using the 3gb one very laggy unusable

Not the prettiest looking phone? I think the design and built quantity are probably the only good thing about this phone. I would get it just because it’s a beautiful design. Like the Moto Razr

I have s21 ultra tomorrow ill buy keyone just because of that phone not something else
