Breaking news, information, and analysis on the latest mobile phones and mobile technology
We’ve all heard it – Apple is going to bed with IBM (or that’s the other way round?) in a move that could give Cook & Co. new clients in the enterprise space, while helping the Big Blue mobilize (and modernize) its offering. Under the deal between the two giants, more than 100 new apps…
The upcoming BlackBerry Passport has been both the darling of the media and the next thing to hate in blogs around the Interwebs. While BlackBerry fans love it, iFanatics think no one will want to buy such phone. I’m not in any of these two groups but I love the Passport. I would still have…
If Microsoft, Google and Apple can have their virtual assistants, so can BlackBerry. The Canadian company is doing just that and will include this feature into its upcoming BlackBerry OS 10.3, which will ship preinstalled with the BlackBerry Passport and BlackBerry Classic. Just like Cortana, Google Now and Siri – the BlackBerry Assistant will too…
The fact is that BlackBerry has seen better days. However, it’s still far from dying; rather it’s turning attention elsewhere, going for its traditional market consisting of enterprise and government customers, and everyone else looking for an extra dose of mobile security. The Canadian company has been long known for its QWERTY keyboard equipped phones,…
BlackBerry seems to like HTC’s idea to cram two cameras on a phone and may be working on something similar as we speak. Digging through the BlackBerry OS 10.3 files, CrackBerry has once again caught the traces of the still unannounced Porsche Design P’9983 or as it’s referred to in the OS, the BlackBerry Khan.…
After Indonesia, BlackBerry is bringing its Z3 smartphone to India, another fast growing market where BlackBerry smartphones used to sell well. The Canadian company developed the Z3 in partnership with Foxconn to cut down the cost. This, entry-level BlackBerry device, comes with a 5-inch qHD screen (540×960 pixels), Qualcomm’s Snapdragon MSM8230 chip with 1.2GHz dual-core…
You may’ve noticed that BlackBerry CEO has been showing off two of the company’s upcoming products, BlackBerry Classic and BlackBerry Passport. The former has the BlackBerry’s classic trackpad as well as other standard keys that use to come with all BlackBerry smartphones “back in the days.” It’s the latter that got all the attention, as…
BlackBerry may be looking to join the phablet market. By this I don’t mean they’ll launch the Z30 in other markets, but unveil a brand new device with, presumingly, even bigger screen. By today’s standards, the Z30’s 5-inch screen doesn’t cut it for a phablet. Speaking with the Jakarta Post, BlackBerry CEO John Chen noted…
The previously rumored BlackBerry Windermere has been caught in the wild and, boy, it looks awkward. Call me crazy, but that narrow keyboard looks strange below that big, 4.5-inch screen, which will reportedly have resolution of 1440×1440 pixels. I love the idea of combining the big screen with physical keyboard, but is this the best…
BlackBerry Z3 is a hot item in Indonesia, with three local carriers reporting that they have sold out their pre-order units. Announced during this year’s Mobile World Congress, the Z3 — which used to be known under the codename Jakarta — is a sub-$200 smartphone the Canadian company built in co-operation with Foxconn. BlackBerry confirmed…
