BlackBerry returns with an highly unusual design that's uncompromisingly aimed at two groups: enterprise users and those looking for powerful complementary "second phone". The Passport showcases one great innovation – a capacitive multitouch physical key...
Sharp screen, Good battery life, Very high build quality
Onscreen keyboard is a mess, BB10 app store is spartan, Big, heavy and impossible to type with one hand
Here is a phone which is very well built, with an attractive and purposeful design that is unique and genuinely eye-catching - but one which struggles to deliver on its promises of being the perfect work machine. Some power users will love the physical k...
Excellent multitasking and messaging capabilities, Square display ideal for viewing documents and email, Excellent keyboard with capacitive touch features, “Official” Android apps via Amazon Appstore, Solid and refined design

Bulky dimensions, Odd squareshaped display, Still nowhere near the amount of apps found on Android and iOS
If you’re a business user, BlackBerry has just delivered the phone of your dreams in terms of functionality. For everyone else, the BlackBerry Passport is far too impractical and productivity-oriented to use on a daily basis....
Square screen can be annoying in some situations, large design can be cumbersome, most features require BES
For existing BlackBerry customers with a BES, the Passport is the most advanced and interesting BlackBerry handset currently available. However, with most of its new features requiring BES or having parallels in alternative platforms, there's little here ...
So then, the BlackBerry Passport. First up, we have to say, hats off to BlackBerry for trying something different. Right now, the company needs some sort of success in the devices space - but sadly, this isn't likely to be it.Even so, no other smartphone...
