    I'm only posting here because I want to see how much people will reply lol. I was one of the first person's in the world who despised Blackberry and instantly got an Android just so I could hear the comments from people that my Android can't use BBM so it lame, only to laugh afta dem few years later when Android start kick off in Jamaica.

    I held on to my BlackBerry very very long... had a Z30 up to last year... but boy BlackBerry reached it's max for me..
    I still think BlackBerry handles email better thou (More so if you're managing multiple email accounts).. hopefully android will catch up in that area..

    @PowPow ... early Androids were lame man lol... BlackBerry was better than them in my opinion, is not until Lollipop I start to tek Android serious lol

    Yeah man is since Jellybean days I started using Android and that's when it got good. Looks like I jumped on the wagon right on time and the app store is another main reason I got into Android.

    BB still alive. I they stopped production of the classic recently but still have not announced what the replacement will be. Whatsapp announced some bull about stopping support for BBos10 in decemeber because of "advanced features that they cannot implement". All these things hint that they is something deeper that they want that BB won't let them do on the phone. I don't mind still I can live without whatsapp and facebook in my life - time wasters more time. Eventually whatsapp will become a social network and merge your phone numbers into your facebook contacts - I aint sticking around for that.

    They need to drop a new phone though but not that android crap - BB OS 10 all the way. 10.3.3 update next month or so they say.

    BB is meh. Classic case of not adapting until it is too late.

    They seem to be going all android though.

    Thats basically it. Alot of news outlets are putting windows phone about blackberry for some odd reason but paid articles are everywhere. blackberry not paying anybody for hype articles, it really makes no sense. The BB phone handles the base features I need and doesnt force me to do things i do not want to do. Anytime I see a random android user I take their phone and look into the calender app; 9 times of 10 you will see nothing in there.

    Technically they still alive because they not closed for business but other than that they are dead as nails...
    BBOS10 to me is far more robust than Android and Even OIS .. but I guess that boils down to my needs (Business orientated)

    I really hope BlackBerry can turn things around, but honestly I think they will be sold sooner or later.

    That's already happening... Facebook and WhatsApp are very tightly integrated now..
