Blackberry is the best android and the first and the foremost android phone ever made in mobile history!! Also its look is awesome, unique and uncomparable with any other android or smartphones.. It has also got the fastest processor and biggest storage capacity then any other mobile phones. It is also dust and water resistant which cannot be seen in any other android or smartphone devices.These characteristics makes an individual to buy this phone for their personal use and also it resembles their passion and life style. It has got good battery life as well 👏👌😀really Blackberry rockzzz !!!
Have used and tried the Motion and it is one solid premium device. Was very impressed when had it on my hands and the back looks awesome. 3 days running and battery just keeps going. Lots of features for a great Price. Definitely Motion is in Full Motion.
Can you tell me, whether the virtual keyboard is similar or exactly like that of the Z10 and Z30? I've complained to Blackberry Mobile that when I walked into a Bell store in Toronto that the keyboard was simply just an Android keyboard and not a Blackberry one. They advised me that the store did not "turn-on" the swipe gestures for the words/keyboard, but to my understanding, if this is a BB device, why must that natural typing/swiping experience be "turned-on" when it should already be up and running?
NYTOC hello the keyboard is from BlackBerry and it is awesome. You have the option to flick words above keys as you type and you can also enable swipe typing. Supports multiple languages as you type. Yes just like on Z10 / Z30 but improved.
Rico4you are you serious??? Could you possibly make a video post? If not I will take your word for it. I am currently using an LG V20 and Nexus 6 both of which typing is pissing me off. I have never had to correct myself nearly 200 times typing a message or composing a reply using a blackberry keyboard. If you made a video, could you send it to my inbox? I am not with Bell or Rogers, I don't know when they will allow this phone to be bought outright from BBM, but if you speak the truth, then I would gladly like to go back to that Bell store and tell the employees to set the device up correctly. Thank you for your reply, it really means a lot. I've missed my BBPP SE since it went down due to crashing issues.
NYTOC hello there are lots of videos on the net. Just google RE BlackBerry keyboard keyone virtual. You will see it there including flick typing or swipe. Good luck and enjoy your device when you get it!
Thanks for the review! I haven't tried the Motion out, but I reckon I'll stick with the Keyone. I like the physical keyboard, but am not averse to touch screen either. Thing for me is I've always liked BB in general, but a big part of that appeal has been how the phone looked and felt in my hand. The rubber style backing (sounds crazy) and feel in the hand has always been special for me. As such, the shape and edges of Motion look like iPhone, and probably feel the same too. Conclusion, I'm in no hurry to get new phone as only got the keyone in July, and really enjoy using it. So I'll wait to see what the next BB puts out next.
i love Blackberry i´m the biggest Fan ! =) i collect them all i have the Q10, Bold, Playbook ( Tablet ) , Passport and currently the Keyone ( Silver + Black Edition ) the physical Keyboard is essential for me because Touchscreen only suck´s....BB is better the Apple´s IPhone or Samsung Galaxy Series ( i had the s8 + note 8 )@ITALY ( im sorry my english is not good )
Great review. I have a BlackBerry Passport which I love because of the keyboard. I would still like the keyboard so the KeyOne would be my choice. Thanks
Does your passport struggle with everything (almost)... browser is a nightmare, when I try to open new tab I have to restart browser. Maybe I'll try to reset phone to factory settings and survive next few months
the same in my case. well... my bb passport just have been updated (this morning) to 10.3.3.2031 so maybe now will be better. nope... still the same issue with browser, damn it!
I know I have a Passport too and I just love it, but with the newer Apps that are either Android or Apple platforms....sigh...I am being forced to upgrade. The FB App that's just a browser version is a bit crazy. Anyway thanks for the comments folks
I am using both the KEYone and the Motion. I prefer the KEYone for emailing and doing text type tasks. The KEYone also has a virtual keyboard that can be easily put up on to the screen. As for performance, I am not using the phones for gaming. I find the performance excellent for general type use. I do a lot of browsing, emails, tasks, notes, and etc. I also do a lot of news reading and watch news videos fairly often. I found no slowdowns or any glitches that would annoy me. I require two separate phone numbers for mobile use. I bought the two different phones to sort of have the best of both types. Both are excellent phones. One thing about Blackberry phones is the security. This is a big plus that made me stay with Blackberry. I also like the quality of the product and the way their phones work.
I have the blackberry keyone 64gb black edition I've always been lg but I stopped at the g5 se , from now on I'm a blackberry user , I like the build look and what the phone offers, plus and a big plus is the battery life I also love the fact they are still lcd ips screens no burn in worry and still get a beautiful screen for viewing, blackberry is a true all day daily driver for adults
Thanks for the video. Question? Did you turn off adaptive brightness in the Motions display settings? I noticed a much brighter screen on the KEYone when doing so.
The At&t black Keyone has 3Gb ram & 32Gb of storage just like the silver one. It just came in the mail, and its 100 bucks cheaper than it used to be (2/20/18). The "Black Edition" has 4Gb & 64Gb, and I think it comes unlocked.
I had the opportunity to try both side-by-side. If it had been a year and a half ago, I’d choose the KEYᴼᴺᴱ. But I’ve been on a full-touch phone for that year and a half so choose the Motion for the large screen, battery and waterproof capability. I’m also told that the BlackBerry ‘skin’ makes Android work well so I’m looking forward to trying that out.
Are you sure the motion has better battery life? Thought it would be pretty similar due to the bigger display using more juice to even out the battery size difference.
Bruce Banner A bigger display by 1 inch does not mean it'll use 500mah extra at the same rate of the keyone. It's not a better battery.. Just bigger so lasts longer.
Bruce Banner Why would I need to mate? BlackBerry say the keyone is good for 26+ hrs and the motion good for 32+hrs. Even you never hit those numbers the simple mathematics tells you that in their own tests the additional inch does not cause 500mah extra capacity to drain so quick that it ends up being the same 26 hours with the keyone.
Blackberry Passport SE unless they would of went with a 4:7 inch KeyOne super amoled with 4;3 RATIO (Wide as allowed) it as wide as possible with larger keys, but they didn't so... Blackberry Passport! It would of been PERFECT! Maybe the KeyTWO, stereo speakers are a MUST, KILLER SOUND! I am a Crackberry Addict, they should hire me for design! ;)
I had the keyone (32GB/3GBram) it was so cool, but unfortunately it was a lag machine. It would slowdown at least 5 or 6 times a day. The only thing I would use the phone for was social media and messaging. Because of that I ended up returning it. Hopefully the Keytwo will be much faster and better optimized.
You forgot to mention the Motion is cheaper. Here in Netherlands it's only 469. The KeyOne is almost 100 euros more expensive. I currently doubting which phone to buy. I now have the PRIV and thinking of going full touch with the Motion. I love the keyboard but screen is also important for me as I use it a lot in the car for navigation and watching video
Michieliosi dilemma is, altho the bigger screen is nice... itll make it a tad slower, ...and the more u hav the screen on, the motions bigger battery won't matter too much ...... I went to a crackberry meet up and played around with both, I found the keyone screen was nicer too.....and the keyone felt very premium and solid, the motion a bit hollow, although still very gd just didn't compare........ Choosing one is impossible
Jacob Hicks I got ketone silver.....always gets me 7hr + screenon time per day, and I use snapchat and instagram mainly so that's gd.....hasnt frozen or bugged out.......screen size not botherd me.....camera and keyboard r gr8 too
The motion looks beautiful annd more premium looking than most flagship phones with gimmick features. Idk why he called carbon fiber cheap lol...I would love if apple and samsung use it instead of the cheap glass back.
So this is just another Android phone with an Android virtual keyboard but not a Blackberry keyboard? So I was right in complaining to BBM that they are putting on an act. No reviewer openly and honestly uses the keyboard to indicate whether words come up above the letters.
k_ev1n Excuse me? There is no idiocy in anything if the reviewers who have this device demonstrate efficiently and effectively the virtual keyboard. Every video I have seen people like yourself try to tell me it's there and yet, not one person who do these video reviews for a living has proven otherwise. Why is that? I simply want to make the right choice knowing the truth. Your word or someone else's word may be one thing, but when no one has shown such proof, then why back up a claim to which there is no evidence of it?
I will buy the Keyone than the Motion. The Keyone has a class and glamour plus the built is strong. The motion looks ordinary and the resolution is not pretty well okay. It looks like poor quality although it is new and interesting. It has no impact overall compare to the Keyone.
if i didn't want a pkb i wouldn't even consider blackberry there's just too many better phones for the same price of the motion! you can always download bb suite for any andoid device so: i love the keyone but i'd never get a motion
This is wrong. Because both Keyone and Motion are already designed by RIM Canada back in days. Thus they designed for BBOS but now TLC loaded up Android instead of BBOS because of understandable reasons.
The keyone is a nice phone cause of the keyboard and the app store what's the point to have a blackberry phone if it doesn't have a keyboard why not just stay with Samsung galaxy s10
Love my Keyone Black. But great to see BlackBerry are giving both options - feels like they are back in the game

Rico4you well then I look forward to it, thank you. Just gotta wait until it is released for the general public.
I prefer the one I'm writing this comment with right now, the Keyone. Physical keyboards are the best way to type.
BB is back
Thanks for the review! I haven't tried the Motion out, but I reckon I'll stick with the Keyone. I like the physical keyboard, but am not averse to touch screen either.

Hello I am Deaf I like you
Great review. I have a BlackBerry Passport which I love because of the keyboard. I would still like the keyboard so the KeyOne would be my choice. Thanks
Hey look, someone can give a good review and comparison of devices without being judgemental or arrogant! 👍👏✌
Loving my KeyOne.
I love the KeyOne! I have had a number of Blackberrys and this is does everything that I want.
Thanks, good info. Time to replace my BB Passport, and trying to decide which one to go with. At the moment, leaning towards the KEYone....
Melvin Evans yep. Those programmable shortcuts are gold. Especially now that theyve doubled up with short press shortcuts.
Does your passport struggle with everything (almost)... browser is a nightmare, when I try to open new tab I have to restart browser. Maybe I'll try to reset phone to factory settings and survive next few months
Yes, having the same type problems plus more. Mine is the AT&T version and started after their last update.
the same in my case. well... my bb passport just have been updated (this morning) to 10.3.3.2031 so maybe now will be better.
nope... still the same issue with browser, damn it!
I know I have a Passport too and I just love it, but with the newer Apps that are either Android or Apple platforms....sigh...I am being forced to upgrade. The FB App that's just a browser version is a bit crazy. Anyway thanks for the comments folks
Hey you're in the6ix! Great vid my friend!
Thanks for the review!
I’m getting the keyone all black edition. It’s a beautiful phone and unique!!
The keyone was your 1st phone with a physical keyboard ... 🤣🤣🤣 What year were you born ?
*Love u r Videos its always have Top notch quality*
😊😁☺️😛
😎
Lol..This kiddo said he hasn’t even owned a phone with a keyboard.
IASOU2005 that's what I thought too hahahaha. Remember the Sidekick? Lmao nextels. Chirp chirp yerrr
*Definitely the KEYone!*
Thank you for uploading

Mko vizuri, good explanation
Thanks for the video. Question? Did you turn off adaptive brightness in the Motions display settings? I noticed a much brighter screen on the KEYone when doing so.
KEYᵒⁿᵉ Black Edition all the way :) keep me away from the charger for two, sometimes even three days, plus looks stunning and works great
The At&t black Keyone has 3Gb ram & 32Gb of storage just like the silver one. It just came in the mail, and its 100 bucks cheaper than it used to be (2/20/18). The "Black Edition" has 4Gb & 64Gb, and I think it comes unlocked.
Owning a blackberry keyone black edition
Mikey Lejan I ordered today. Are you having problem?
The Keyone. Love it
Recently, the Keyone got the locker to.
Was expecting the motion the same design with keyone with ip67 or 68 all screen with bbZ10 OS Gestures. Gonna buy the Keyone
I had the opportunity to try both side-by-side. If it had been a year and a half ago, I’d choose the KEYᴼᴺᴱ. But I’ve been on a full-touch phone for that year and a half so choose the Motion for the large screen, battery and waterproof capability. I’m also told that the BlackBerry ‘skin’ makes Android work well so I’m looking forward to trying that out.
both are amazing
The suit though 😁👌👌
Dunno why but I think this guy looks really cool
I think I’d be happy with either. I’m more about function and I don’t use my phone or games or media.
Are you sure the motion has better battery life? Thought it would be pretty similar due to the bigger display using more juice to even out the battery size difference.
Bruce Banner A bigger display by 1 inch does not mean it'll use 500mah extra at the same rate of the keyone. It's not a better battery.. Just bigger so lasts longer.
k_ev1n have you done the test?
Bruce Banner Why would I need to mate? BlackBerry say the keyone is good for 26+ hrs and the motion good for 32+hrs. Even you never hit those numbers the simple mathematics tells you that in their own tests the additional inch does not cause 500mah extra capacity to drain so quick that it ends up being the same 26 hours with the keyone.
I got the silver KEYone and gonna switch to the black édition
lol can you possibility change the outro , sounds really weird lol but Man U done a great job of the video and just in overall great review.!
Keyone is best, and want keyone 2 with better camera and more options with convenience key
Blackberry Passport SE unless they would of went with a 4:7 inch KeyOne super amoled with 4;3 RATIO (Wide as allowed) it as wide as possible with larger keys, but they didn't so... Blackberry Passport! It would of been PERFECT! Maybe the KeyTWO, stereo speakers are a MUST, KILLER SOUND! I am a Crackberry Addict, they should hire me for design! ;)

Definitely keyone
Nice suit, why is it not linked in the description haha
Liked for the suit.
Blackberry Motion ? Or keyone need to decide
The phones do not share the same camera sensor....
*Love your suit*
Obviously I'll go with blackberry keyone limited black edition.
I have keyone and motion love them both and they both have the locker app
Which one is better? Is it still usable now in 2024?
You forgot to mention the Motion is cheaper. Here in Netherlands it's only 469. The KeyOne is almost 100 euros more expensive. I currently doubting which phone to buy. I now have the PRIV and thinking of going full touch with the Motion. I love the keyboard but screen is also important for me as I use it a lot in the car for navigation and watching video

Jacob Hicks I ended up getting the Motion. Don't regret it for one bit. Amazing phone with the best battery life. I even got through 3 days with it!!!
Rather the 5.5 screen, but I gotta say the keyone is a nice looking phone.
KEYone Black Edition.
Would you recommend a Blackberry Or Google Pixel 2? Thanks
the keyone still rocks it dude
Nice suit 😎
I still like the BlackBerry Priv over the keyone and the motion...
does the black edition support duel sim?
The motion looks beautiful annd more premium looking than most flagship phones with gimmick features. Idk why he called carbon fiber cheap lol...I would love if apple and samsung use it instead of the cheap glass back.
Keyone bro
wait youf first phone with no keyboard how old are you man?
O prefer both, but If i need choose only one, i get Motion.
id rather have the HTC U11 or HTC 10, I liked the Priv alot though
I prefer blackberry Keyone than blackberry motion, just because of the physical keyboard.
I like blackberry motion 😍”
the keyone has the keyboard too small and the other one has a lot of oversized toms and it's not a symmetrical terminal
So this is just another Android phone with an Android virtual keyboard but not a Blackberry keyboard? So I was right in complaining to BBM that they are putting on an act. No reviewer openly and honestly uses the keyboard to indicate whether words come up above the letters.
NYTOC It's a BlackBerry Virtual keyboard.. Stop being an idiot. U thick or what?

The motion has waaaaaay better display its brighter. Duh
adore blackberry
Mike D Scott Better Business Bureau complaint filed against Blackberry Feb 2018
God dude lay off of the hair gel
James Mustaine Ikr 😂
Dude it's so disgusting XD I'd never wanna touch that shit
Yea it looks disgusting and unnecessary in like every video. I wonder how much he fucking puts in it
James Mustaine yea I hate to be rude but it looks very unnatural and gross. Dammit now I can't stop looking at it 😆
I prefer to buy a keyone
i see dave2d i press like
I prefer PRIV as it is from Blackberry made, while others from others thought...
I love my PRIV about 95% of the time...
This is wrong. Because both Keyone and Motion are already designed by RIM Canada back in days. Thus they designed for BBOS but now TLC loaded up Android instead of BBOS because of understandable reasons.
I love my keyone
Key one the best
i want a motion phone.
plse help me
Motion
Love fisical Keyboards.
am still on classic ....its too classyy
🔝👌
right，i chose priv
The keyone is a nice phone cause of the keyboard and the app store what's the point to have a blackberry phone if it doesn't have a keyboard why not just stay with Samsung galaxy s10
Such a big bezel
It's not a BlackBerry without a physical keyboard...
I want a bb motion
Mm
Motion is better because it has dual Sim card with more battery life.
The motion has only one sim card and the Keyone has two. correct me if I am wrong. Thanks.
recep iic no man . Model BBD100-006 middle east version has dual sim
Avocado Lovers Where are you at😁🥑
if i was to buy sth different than iphone i would buy sony xperia or samsung galaxy s8 or note 8
Motion when it comes down in price.
Keyone
I have a Keyone
Keyone hands down 😂
keyone
Dood who will talk about the sound quality?
iPhone 😎
"not very old" blackberry keyone black edition
👔👔👔👔👔👔
+Ishak K Suited up!
I also agree with you... KEYone is still a better choice, as physical keyboard is the soul of Blackberry
