BLACKBERRY KEYONE REVIEW: PART PRODUCTIVITY, PART NOSTALGIA

By


BlackBerry’s latest phone has a particular set of skills acquired over a very long career



it was in about the third hour of using the new BlackBerry KeyOne, available this month for $549 unlocked, that I started to question my longtime preference for touchscreen keyboards. Because as I was pushing on the KeyOne’s tiny little buttons with the tips of my thumbs, I remembered why some people still have such an affinity for these things.
It wasn’t that I was able to type faster with the BlackBerry’s keyboard (I wasn’t), or that I was more accurate with it (I still used autocorrect). It was that I felt like I was more productive when using it. I wasn’t wasting time tweeting nonsense or sending emoji in ephemeral messages. I was sending important emails, working with my colleagues in Slack, creating and completing to-do lists, and adding appointments to my calendar. I was Getting Shit Done.

Samsung buoed by HUGE galaxy S6 Preorders

By
now expecting Samsung to ship 46 million Galaxy S6 handsets this year, up from his previous estimate of 38 million. Kim also believes that interest in the S6 will also pull in sales for lower-priced handsets. On top of that, he sees the S6 as being good for the supply chain as a whole. "Success of GS6 will have positive chain impacts on the mid- to low-end market leadership and in-house component businesses (overall DRAM/NAND memory with content growth, mobile AP LSI and AMOLED display panel)." Despite this, Kin still believes that Samsung will report a 1 percent quarterly decline in operating profits for the first quarter due to "overall slow seasonality" over the Chinese New Year, but that the second quarter will be much more fruitful, with the company expected to post a 39 percent increase in quarterly profit.
