    I am really interested with this device. I have been using BB Z10 for 1 year already, and I am satisfied. I had experiences using all devices from various operating systems, but only two that make me feel comfortable. First is BB10 and Windows Phone. I do miss old typing experience using keypad, thank God, BB is till providing it.

            After trying both I'm sold on the note 4. The beast suits me better and nothing can beat this... No more pen and paper for me.

                      I really like GSMarena, however i am disappointed to read another review of the Passport where i can feel when reading right away that the author has done the review with a bias that something done different cannot be really good.
                      If you look for example to Amazon (reviews), you can see that many people like the Passport and appreciate a physical keyboard more than looking Youtube on the handset.
                      I hope GSMarena will not get 1 out of many sites that always claim: Android is the best, Apple is even better and Samsung does the world best devices. I can't read it anymore. For me the Passport fits into pockets and is my true e-mail on the run. I haven't used desktop or iPad for answering emails since i own the Passport and this is really good for me....

                          Great to hear and see that you're enjoying your BlackBerry Passport it's truly an amazing device! I've had it for over three weeks now and couldn't be happier! I even bought another one, so now I have two of them!!

                            Do blackberry people don't have anything better than spamming sites and reviews with bots?
                            I used to love Blackberry, but no longer now, I've lost respect on them.

                              got my passport yesterday. really got to say I love this phone. sound is bloody amazing. id say its as good as if not better than htc sound.
                              emails and hub is best there is with Lumia not to far of. I have blackberry world, amazon app store and google play sideloaded of which you can use about 85%.
                              device feels so premium compared to apple and android.
                              yeah im really happy.
