Who's leaving for the new BlackBerry phones?

So I take it you don't believe the reviews

The reviews I've seen are pretty complimentary. Looks like a winner - tentatively.

You and I live in alternate worlds. I even quoted a few of the complaints.

No, they haven't. They all say the same thing: too little, too late. And certainly not enough to save them when their chief competitor for 3rd place is a company that could swallow them whole.

Blackberry is doomed. The Z10, Q10, and OS10 are not enough to save them from their (well-deserved) fate.

Never. They may have a new platform and new handsets, but they haven't fixed any of the core issues with the blackberry experience. They'll be bought within the year.

Pffff. Blackberry outsold Windows phone, HTC and Motorola put together in 2012. And that was with ridiculously outdated handsets.

I remember you raving a few months ago that BB10 was vaporware and would never make it to market. Don't be a sore loser.

Uhmm I never posted anything here about BB10.
And all of those 'sales' were to companies, not individuals, most of which are abandoning the platform. Sales also don't matter if you make no money.

You posted in another BlackBerry thread about 5 months ago, literally said 3 times that blackberry was doomed to never come to market.

And actually very few of Blackberry's sales last year were to enterprise clients, almost all of whom were waiting for BB10 to purchase further handsets. The are many countries in which Blackberry still remains the most popular smartphone.

Look, you were wrong before and you're wrong now. Why don't you quit while you're ahead this time.

You have me mistaken for someone else. I have not posted anywhere on here about blackberry.

I'll also say it again: sales are meaningless if you're not making money. RIMs ASP is pitiful at around $260. Apples, for comparison, is $650.

The market has passed RIM by, and they still don't understand why.

It was you, JBH.


Blackberry doesn't have to make the same level of profit as Apple to be successful. As long as they're not losing money, they won't be selling out to anyone. There's no indication that they'll be losing their spot in 3rd place anytime soon.

If the world was passing them by, they wouldn't still have 85% of the enterprise market. They can turn a profit on that alone.

Blackberry makes a unique product, and between 70-80 million customers seem to want it and nothing else.

Show me where they're turning a profit.

Oh, and you do have me confused with someone else. Look through my post history. I have never posted anything about blackberry on this forum.

Not leaving...but they do have my attention. I really like what I see from BB10. And I like the design of that all screen phone. Not a fan of physical keyboards anymore. BB and WP seems like a good option if I ever got tired of Android. Right now I might put BB ahead of WP. The Live Tiles ....I cant get into that at all.

Crack bro, don't waste your time. Not everyone can see the appeal in more than one brand. Best to just move on to something worth your attention.

This is from me, on my EVO 3D.

How about a friendly wager, sir. If Blackberry is turning a profit and hasn't sold out, then you're wrong. If it isn't, or they're bought out, then victory will be yours. We'll both be here in 6 months. I'll make an event on my calendar so I'll remember. Whoever turns out to be right must a thread entitled "I was wrong and I'm a giant, wrong, wrong McWrongface, and also a ninny".
