I find them still attractive design wise and somewhat unique. I was at Best Buy tonight looking at phones but I still want a BlackBerry Motion. The prospect of  a battery to last well over a full day of heavy usage is compelling too.

I know it might be a rhetorical question but is there any Blackberry user still around here (other than me of course)?

I have a Key2!

This is actually pretty good for a certain type of user.

That's the one!

That's a nicely built phone too. Personal or work phone?

Personal. I really missed having a physical keyboard.

I believe you have my stapler.

Guy beside me has it.

What do you think about the latest MIUI version? On my phone, it works amazingly awful and I am pretty mad about that.

what is Miui??

Ive had a iPhone 6( maybe S dunno) and im disappointed l. The battery is crap and the photo quality are primitive compared to my wife galaxy 6..... by a mile.  I really like the IOS system but willing to look at other ones. I always had apple phones.
My contract is due ne next month and im considering a Huawei P20 pro..  just because of the camera performance l. I need to take a lot of construction pics and i feel like the iPhone is not good enough “.

I’ve got a 6S & my wife has an XS. The picture quality on the XS is a massive improvement. Pretty much the best out there currently, from what I’ve read.

And yeah, what’s up with the battery life on the 6? I got a new battery in the spring, and it’s still complete crap.

I bought a battery pack case that holds like 270% but still a pain. I had my battery replaced about 6 months ago and that was a waste of $$

I don’t really want to spend too much on the phone...

You can get a new battery from Apple for $35 , the new battery been great in our phones
I have not found a problem with an iPhone with taking pictures for construction purposes

[HeliDriver]

^^ He said he had the battery replaced six months ago. Same as me.

I didn’t notice any difference at all. Still only get 4 hours of screen time on a full charge, and I’ve played with all the settings to maximize battery life. Screen brightness is at like 5%. 

[CanuckS2K]

^ Holy, four hours on a full charge is pretty sad.  Was it like that when brand new as well?

[HeliDriver]

^ I don’t think so, but Apple didn’t have the screen time feature to spell it out, so hard to say for sure.

Cant really crop or zoom on a iphone6 l... The shutter is slow..etc. When i changed the battery, it was okay for couple weeks but went back to what it was.

Even if i get an older used galaxy..
