                AnonD-142922, 18 Sep 2015Well this whole phone looks so retro so why not keyb. that way..Ever heard of 'text-claw'? Thats why. Can your thumb really reach all of that qwerty keyboard in long horizontal position? I don't think so.

                    Currently, Windows offers the best productivity tools, features, stability and security.

                    Those who just want to show off with their customised home screens or want to use a popular OS without doing anything else besides making calls & playing some games on their phones, will use Android. (normal users)

                          I would definitively buy this with Win10, surely not with Android. I look for realibility, not popularity.

Only thing that needs confirmation is the swipe right to go back to what you were doing in the hub and customizable quick settings (that also double as on off switches)

                                Wow. Looks pretty. It's sad Blackberry are some of the few still making qwerty phones. Touchscreen typing is still terrible.

A camera superior to the iphone. Go easy haters.
