    I loved those phones when I was a kid. If I saw someone with it I would scream in excitement because I loved how the keyboard slides. Someone let me use their keyboard for a little bit and I was in heaven.

    I literally still use my Blackberry Torch that I bought 10 years ago, daily. I’ve had 6 iPhones, and every single one of them broke, while the Torch has been dropped 10 times as much.

    I used a BB Torch until early 2016... It still is my favorite phone layout cause of the large sliding screen + physical keyboard. I wish they had a modern phones with layouts like that! At least my Unihertz pocket treats me well now with its physical qwerty keyboard (altho the BB Torch layout was still better).

    I wish they would make a BlackBerry style slide phone with modern phone specs (Android with Google Play store, 5G, modern processor, modern storage, modern camera). I would totally consider buying it. Since flip phones are making a comeback with phones like Motorola Razr and Samsung Galaxy Z Fold, why not slide phones?

    Correct me if I’m wrong but I believe the only Blackberry that slid was the Blackberry Torch I could be wrong there could have been other models that slid I never used a Blackberry well actually I did but only briefly between iPhones it was only temporary between stopping the use of one iPhone and just until my new iPhone was ready and I HATED using it (the Blackberry I mean) even though it was only temporary but still I would have rather have had an old dumbphone for temporary use between iPhones I believe the Blackberry I had for temporary use was the Curve if I remember correctly

My new phone is great and I had to be a rebel and not get an I-Phone but a Samsung GALAXY Z fold phone. I miss my BB keypad and my friends notice how slow I am at texting now. But it is what it is.

      @@Odinthesleepy need to see a video of this "superfan" collection😂 Why dose blackberry still have lots of fans, compared to Motorola and their razr? Honestly what frustrates me, is that the razr seems to be the only thing "lenovie" show from moto, what about some of their products from the space age that was the 50s? Or something that they made from the first and second world wars or something from the 1930s? Like for instance the sidekick (sold under the original "hiptop" branding in my and this guy's home country, Australia) slide that moto made, it looks like their motrac radio used in "professional cars" of the 50s to the 70s - or meat wagons as some like to call these vehicles, with a certain 84 movie that hearse and car based ambulance purists hate with a passion. I bet it's the same with you blackberry folks who probably get tired of a certain y2k hotel heiress, with a certain k and her certain red head friend when they talk about blackberry's, although I doubt that blackberry enthusiasts would actually have purist attitudes like the hearse guys that despise a certain red and white 59 caddy ambulance
