So after months of trouble with my NEXUS 4 mainly, frozen screens and poor reception after upgrading to the all singing and dancing Google Lolli Pop and then getting the upgrades to than upgrade, my contract came to and end. SoI hit the high street.
At first I was tempted by the new NEXUS 6 as I have a nexus 7 but it just felt a little too big especially in my line of work. I briefly looked at Samsung but it only drew a "Meh" from me. Looked at LG phones as I was a previous fan and the Nexus 4 was made by them. Motorola phones didn't really appeal even though I know they're the same as every other phone. What about an iPhone.....nah just didn't fancy being a clone of all the youth at work. Then it struck me in the corner of a car phones whare house. A BlackBerry stand. As soon as I picked up a new BB OS10 that was it. I then thought what do I do on my phone,
1) Calls
2) Text
3) E-mail
4) Web search 'n' surf.
The sales man tried his best "we don't sell many of these they're old hat, not very good at all". I asked him what he meant and he couldn't really give me an answer. So I bowled home went on line to my mobile operator and ordered a new Blackberry classic. It arrived the next day. All shiny and heavy, 4g etc,etc. BB world for any apps I'd need or Amazon app store or I can side load off the Play store should I really want too. Standby by even with heavy use is around two whole days three if you turn off at night. All in all a backwards step in to comfy slippers but great reception, super fast internet, easy to type texts and Email that's unbelievably easy to use. Only Apps I don't have yet are Netflix and Amazon MP3 all others came over and work find.
