I used this for a MONTH ☹ - Blackberry Key2

Buy Blackberry Key2
On Amazon: http://geni.us/jReYAb
On Newegg: http://geni.us/CCwmt

The Key2 is the sequel to the KeyOne. Eagerly awaited by literally dozens of people, this last-generation typing experience is sure to please even business executives who refuse to learn or experience anything new.

The moment some one talks about the video watching experience in a Blackberry review, I immediately pause the video, and just shutdown my computer. I quit. 

I have a KeyOne.

I love it. 

It's Android, which is great.

It's got the BB security stuff, which is also great.

And it's got a real keyboard, which is a killer deal for me.

Best smartphone I've ever had.

Damn that's not good for business, giving your opinion before the sponsor spot lol... Great for us, not so much for them

Samsung Autocorrect is terrible and some one needs to be fired for it.

This is actually one reason why I don't use the manufactures keyboard... So many better ones out there, sadly swype no longer exists

I think the opposite, people are more interested in others failings so are more likely to stay and watch, that's why the media focus on 90% negative news coverage because it gets the most views.

It would be interesting to see the analytics vs the average dropout rate to see how much more (if any) was caused by him saying that one line.

The chart would take a massive dip or stay consistent with other review videos (this image is from a video I posted years ago that was 2 hours long)

his face tells me all I need to know. 

I think the artifacts and shakiness from the photos taken using the Key2 is due to the lack of optical image stabilization. No wonder Linus uses his iPhone for pictures.

It’s relevant. No, video watching is not a main focus of the device, nor the people who use it. But it doesn’t mean it shouldn’t be considered. As Linus rightly pointed out even executives (like me!) or government officials who may need the extra security and therefore HAVE to use a blackberry, are going to be cheesed off if the video sucks, because they can’t switch to something else.

More and more, reviews, most notably, phone reviews on this channel are just so far from what I want from a phone, it's almost not even worth watching. If I want perfect experience in some area, I'll use device designed for it. Phone should have good reception, call clarity, robust e-mail app, GPS accuracy and connectivity to my other devices, none of that is even mentioned in the review, instead, half the time is about movie watching and webpage scrolling? And hell, the lack of HW buttons is why I don't even watch movies on my tablet, since I can't easily change speed or use shortcuts for time jumps, are there apps for Key 2 that allow this? If there are, then it's better for movies that any other device I have seen thus far.
