I've read the specs over and over...
For a 2018 phone, it's missing wireless charging and NFC (for Google Pay)

I love BlackBerry KEY2. I love it but it does not mean you have to buy it too.
If it fits you, KEY2!

The 4 main reasons I love this device and still use a BlackBerry.
1. Battery life. The king. Nothing comes close.
2. Security and encryption. They invented the standard. If it's good enough for the Canadian and US governments it's good enough for me.
3. The keyboard. Makes me a lot more accurate.
4. The phone functionality and voice quality. Clear. Loud.

I've been using BlackBerry for quite some time but l was having challenges of keeping up with new apps on the market but now since BlackBerry now using android my problem was with Ram memory, some of the phone will run slow on the heavy usage of which l never experience that with bb os 10 or earlier versions.Now the BlackBerry key2 has come with better specs and hopefully will be the "redeemer of bb priv the phone that even now has the best looks and was pretty made.
Thanks to BlackBerry for this amazing key2

Salah, 13 Jul 2018700$ For a phone with a SD660 Chipset?
Looks like Blackber... moreSalam Salah
Are you looking for the possessor name on the paper only? or you want the real performance?
I'm glad to let you know that the performance of the SD 660 on the Key2 is good as the SG 835 on other devices, because the performance of the device is not only a possessor it is the harmony between the hardware and the software and it is awesome on the Key2

I made some really rough calculations. If they had put a 16:9 display on there, with the same width and used on-screen buttons, the device would have been about the size of the Samsung galaxy s9+ (perhaps slightly taller and a little less wide), and had a 5.1" screen.
That would have probably been an acceptable size, after all other phones in that size sells quite well.

BB K2, 21 Jun 2018You’re ridiculous to base your conclusion about the Key2’s ... moreactually, if the source material is 720p to 1080p, a 4K screen makes a lot of sense, because of the even scaling.
1080p is 1.5x1.5 times 720, meaning, that proper scaling cant be performed.
Whereas 4K is 3x3 720p and 2x2 1080p, so it is compatible with source material that is both 720 and 1080, whereas a 1080p display is only really compatible with 1080p source material.
But in this case the biggest issue is that the display aspect ratio and resolution isn't fully compatible with all apps. On-screen buttons and a slightly taller unit with a slightly taller display, to make is 16:9 and Full HD, would have been much better solution.
660 is more energy efficient than 835 and 845 running at full speed. But a down-clocked 835 or 845 could outperform the 660 while using less power.
And now there is the 710 chipset, that would have made perfect sense for this device. But that was not around when it was first constructed. And a 835 or 845 chipset would have likely increased the price.

Gardner_Enterprise , 05 Jul 2018Man I've never seen such hate for Blackberry, clearly this ... moreThe screen is weird though... it has issues with app compatibility.
It would have been much better if they had used on-screen buttons, and made the device slightly taller to add the extra bit of display needed to make it a 16:9.
Too bad development took so long for this unit. The 660 is more modern than the 625 of the KeyOne, but the new 710 would probably been the best match for a device like this. It should be more powerful while more energy efficient. I'm not sure the image processing capabilities would have helped as it seems the issues with the camera of this comes from the sensor, but perhaps they would have gone for a different camera solution if they had more powerful image processing at hand.
And some need capable image capturing devices to be productive, so the camera can be an important aspect of a device that is aimed for productivity.

AnonD-743514, 10 Jul 2018So you mean to say all the people using a full screen touch... moreNo my friend all are not fool. Some uses phone for gaming and some for camera. Still some people are there too who uses this for professional purpose. Its keyboard helps to type first as well as it saves time. Every one has their own choice.

It is a Great phone, hope next year blackberry also make another physical keaybord smartphone identical to blackberry key2 with a little bit smaller dimensions to be carried and handled by hand and in the pocket easily. At least 4 inch display screen can be enough. Qwerty smartphones are very handy and useful especially for texting and mailing. I am using nokia E6 qwerty mobile phone but it looks too small.
