Awesome video!! I love the history of BlackBerrys with the boy's personal history and growth. I've only had a 9900 and Z10 but seeing those old BlackBerrys makes me proud of the company's history. Well done, Flyguy!
The Bold 9900 was your first BlackBerry ever? I am really surprised you still had hope and tried to give BlackBerry a shot after hearing what all the media says.
I try what people recommend but go for what suits me. I had a salesguy at the carrier I bought my 9900 from badmouth BB and I've just looked at him in surprise as if to say, "How can you be so dumb as to interfere with the other guy's sale?" I trust my own judgement as to what's best for me.
+1. I really hate how sales representatives in the US and Canada always giving "bad" advices specially when it comes to BlackBerry. In the Middle East he just tells you that's all the devices I got select you one you want. They can compare devices of the same brand to you, but they won't compare an iOS device to Android or BlackBerry for example.
Having gone through this same experience not too long ago with my BlackBerry's, I was absolutely moved by this video. Really related to my experiences. Keep up the good work!
Awesome job. There's just so much emotion in here. I love BlackBerry for all the good it can do and I'm a proud BlackBerry Z10 owner! Good to see someone so thrilled about being back to BB!
Seriously, that was amazing. And I definitely figured there was a reason behind going txt over BBM so that makes perfect sense. It was super cool seeing those old school phones again.
I miss BlackBerry 10 I loved my Leap I still have it!!! And My Q10 I use my Q10 to storage my Photos and I use my Leap for my Music My Priv is my personal phone for uses and BlackBerry Motion is my side phone....
really like this video.. can stilll remember my very first blackberry phone which is 9300.. and now i got the z10 which is awesome! nice work Blackberry Ltd!
Nice work! From an ad point of view, looks very professional. Altho I don't like ads that don't really showcase any real features of the product and instead try to use emotion to make you feel like you need that product. All that is shown here is text messaging, which can be done, arguably more efficiently and with more fun, with other devices out there. Only thing it did was the nostalgia of using the old versions of BB myself, and I'm happy I've moved on! Much better devices out there IMHO!
I must admit I'm an old school Blackberry user that left for Androids few years ago. However this video rekindles those good feelings from back then before things got stale. Great job with this! It definitely plants a seed for me to at least check out the latest BB offerings.
You did an AWESOME job! You need to send it to BlackBerry execs, of course they'd need to condense it but this is EXCELLENT work! Are you in advertising yet?
Good point. It tugs at the heart strings of former BB users, but those without an attachment definitely would need more. We agree this dude has amazing talent and potential? Add some of BB only features (flick typing, BBM, Hub, etc)
Blackberry, great commercial. You need to really push the new 10 OS and get it out into the public eye. I've had my Z10 for a couple of weeks, and everybody that has seen it loves it. ADVERTISE, AND THEY WILL COME !!!
Blackberry is for successful people, talking about people who work hard for there life and the apple is just for people you want to show off what they have, not like its a bad thing but too many people have apple.
I loved it! I currently have the Z10 and it's my fourth BlackBerry after 2 Curve 8330s and a Curve 9300. It's such a great phone and I wish that more people, especially my fellow Canadians, would see that and switch.
Original plan was to use BBM! But I ran into a few problems. The main one being finding all these old phones functioning was hard let alone finding them with data plans available. Also, using BBM the dates wouldn't have had the year when the message came in making it difficult to establish timeframes and there would be pictures in the BBM profiles which takes away from the ending when you finally see the characters faces. Glad you enjoyed it though! :)
I'll be bringing out more content soon! Funny videos, commercials, possible sketches of various natures. I hope to only bring content others would enjoy! Thanks :D
Would have loved to but to get all those phones and then activate their BBMs and make profiles would have been a big challenge. Just trying to get the message across over the functionality. Thanks for the comment :)
-1 Flyguy number plate -Red apple signifies when it was hot -Green used apple shows its not ready and the cue of music shows that at college you have that phone but you grow up when you realize its trash
Tank you for The Video. Really bring back my personal warmth memmories back then. Really miss with that Phone era. Indeed.
Love it!!! Amazing! I'm so proud to be part of #TeamBlackBerry

The Bold 9900 was your first BlackBerry ever? I am really surprised you still had hope and tried to give BlackBerry a shot after hearing what all the media says.
Yup. I had the iPhone but didn't like it so got the 9900 on a friend's recommendation.
Well, that must be a really good friend you trust. Not many have that courage to try a BlackBerry device these days.

I wanna cry watching this video...amazing n confortable
Love it. I have many fond memories of BlackBerry over the years. I love my z10!
Fantastically made advert. BlackBerry should definitely get in touch with you about using this for their marketing! Well done mate.
Having gone through this same experience not too long ago with my BlackBerry's, I was absolutely moved by this video. Really related to my experiences. Keep up the good work!
Great to hear it brought you back to those warm nostalgic memories!
Awesome job. There's just so much emotion in here. I love BlackBerry for all the good it can do and I'm a proud BlackBerry Z10 owner! Good to see someone so thrilled about being back to BB!
good job brother! makes me smile everytime i watch it! such a feel good commercial
nostalgic memories
Very well done. We need more people like you guys out there. Thank you! Now you have me thinking about do not same. Did you shoot that with the Z10?
Awesome vid man, great way to visualize most of (old) BlackBerry users' feelings ;-)
Seriously, that was amazing. And I definitely figured there was a reason behind going txt over BBM so that makes perfect sense.
It was super cool seeing those old school phones again.
Just found this video and its GREAT!! Thanks for uploading!
I really wish BlackBerry would use the nostalgia factor in their new commercials. Awesome job man.
Amazing video. Brings me back :)
Wow that was great. I was trying not to blink, didn't see to miss a beat...lol. Job well done. Love my Z10!
I got my commerce degree with honours in marketing last year. I don't work for any advertising or marketing firm right now. Thanks for the support! :D
I miss BlackBerry 10 I loved my Leap I still have it!!! And My Q10 I use my Q10 to storage my Photos and I use my Leap for my Music My Priv is my personal phone for uses and BlackBerry Motion is my side phone....
Awesome video, and I love the Coming Home theme. (And my Z10)
GREAT job man, this video is AMAZING! :')
really like this video.. can stilll remember my very first blackberry phone which is 9300.. and now i got the z10 which is awesome! nice work Blackberry Ltd!
it's 2017, and I think BB Z10 is the best designed blackberry ever.
9550 is the best
Great concept. BB should hire you! A nostalgic "come back to BB" campaign would be effective. Nice to see all the old school BBs. :-)
Nice work! From an ad point of view, looks very professional.

Wait.... You made this ad yourself? Perfect!
Awesome commercial! I really liked it. It is emotionally touching and shows BlackBerry products growing with its consumers. Thanks!

You did an AWESOME job! You need to send it to BlackBerry execs, of course they'd need to condense it but this is EXCELLENT work! Are you in advertising yet?
as a blackberry lover myself... this ad just blew me away... i can so relate to some of the moments mentioned in the ad...
being just bought a Z10, this video warms my heart :)
Absolutely good commercial. This is very high grade and could easily be broadcasted on TV. We should contact BlackBerry and refer this guy!
this video was well done. i really like how the devices updated as the video progressed. I have the Q10 myself but the Z is dope too.
One of the best video I've ever watched!
Love my z10!
Simply awesome. Best BlackBerry ad in years and not done by BlackBerry itself. Featured on Café com BlackBerry Magazine ;)
Somehow....BlackBerry never hired this guy for their advertising team.
Classic!!!!!!! BlackBerry Commercial
Loved it, shared it. Great work!
This needs 2 thumbs up. Excellent!!

ADVERTISE, AND THEY WILL COME !!!
I'm back with Q5....with Path, Instagram, Line, etc installed..love it..!!
Awesome!!! This bring smile on our faces.
That's DOPE. Can't wait til I get my Z10!
You are cooler than the other side of the pillow!
Thanks for sharing with the circle!
Blackberry is for successful people, talking about people who work hard for there life and the apple is just for people you want to show off what they have, not like its a bad thing but too many people have apple.
I loved this commercial! And I love the Apple reference. Lol.
Absolutely genius. Major props.
My only gripe is they texted instead of using BBM.

I have the New Z10.. loved my Torch and my Pearl - now I've really got something to brag about! This phone is awesome
This is awesome dude!
People need to subscribe to this dude. This is amazing.
absolutely loved the commercial forward this to blackberry loved the ping and apple in the bin
That rotten apple part was the best ;) Amazing ad, conveyed its message! :)
well done. i think the official blackberry commercials need to let people know bb10 is an entirely new os and a totally different experience from bbos
See children blackberry never died.
Wow man...great work :D
Thanks! :D

Well done Ryan!
Amazing. You can only have one first love.
Hugs soon enough, gotta check out that Z10 that dad's been hearing him talk about.
Shot it with a Canon T4i. I had the help of a lot of family and friends while shooting but its just me. I'm a solo act.
Loved the part where the throws the "Apple" into the dustbin.
Excellent (teary eyed)
Would have loved to but to get all those phones and then activate their BBMs and make profiles would have been a big challenge.
Just trying to get the message across over the functionality.
Thanks for the comment :)
It's great! Needed to show some BBM though for a little effect ;) But still great!
Nice job! Wayyyyyyy better thn Blackberry real commercials!!
Excellent in every way
Lol, I love how he throws the apple in the trash.
you should be rewarded by crackberry for this amazing job. I'm not a blackberry user but the clip is emotional and evoke deep memories
This is amazing!

Silence is all I can manage! I am home too, and home is where I belong.

You should work at blackberry, although i would have liked the video even more if you had included the flick keyboard in the ad!
I was, I am, and I always will be BlackBerry.
