Customer Review

When I heard about the release of the Classics, I was immediately impressed. Because I was from the beginning a fan of buttons, and BlackBerry.
I already had: Storm, Storm2, Torch 9810, Bold 9900, Curve, Z10, Q10 and finally the Z30.

First contact:
Now, the price of the Classic has long been known to me, 429. Since one has been forwarded directly to Amazon to the homepage of Blackberry, I have pre-ordered me without further ado. Unfortunately, I feel a little Amazon ripped off with the pre-order price guarantee: 15 minutes after launch, the price lowered to 409 wurder, I expected therefore, that I get paid exactly on this day the difference. But it was not so bad. Read Terms accurate.
For device:
I am thrilled by the processing, the weight, it does not feel to have nothing in your hand (which, unfortunately, many other manufacturers always try). The frame and all errinert nice to the Bold, which I liked even then. Were used really high-quality materials. The display is awesome to read and write the emails. Small drawback because the battery can not be removed, (reason is the capacity, and certain directives) BlackBerry has saved that the entire cover can be removed. This has the consequence that the outer mark and a 3-digit number is engraved on the frame, which is unfortunately not so good. Has an advantage that the 'Battery Cover' can not rise when shove into your pocket, alla Q10 according 3Monaten.

For software (Blend):
The operating system is awesome, it has given me very much like the Z30. Anyone who so clearly is, is it really like. It runs like on all BB10 phones very fluently and without error:
The absolute is the most ingenious (which hardly anyone uses and writes in the comments) is the Blackberry Blend, a program for tablet and PC. So I can, on the BlackBerry access from my PC (WLAN, mobile USB) and to all the data, and also to emails, Whatsapp, BBM etc. read messages and post. Highly commendable.

Battery life:
Amazing - truly has power, the phone hälr at normal (200 WhatsApp / 25 emails / surfing short / over 3G) just over 1 1/2 days.

Apps:
Pre-installed is the Amazon app store, from which one can relate Android apps, which are stored as .apk file. Of course, one must the BlackBerry Store, or the BlackBerry App World is not forgotten. The app selection is fine. Who wants to play, is in this mobile phone wrong, no comparison to Apple;)

Reception (for many non-urbanites-important):
Well, I have in front of my terrace 3Striche 4G network, inside unfortunately Edge reception, at a certain point I always put off my phone, and I have here so a comparison:
Z30: 3Striche E ---- ph * ne 6 3 strokes E ---- S * amsung S5 2Striche E ---- Classic 2-3Striche
So even in the frame.
The wifi reception at the Classic is unfortunately very poor, compared to the above-mentioned devices.

Headset:
The supplied headset is to call really good. Listen to music rather unsuitable. However, is really good, that not everyone can hear, the Earbuds are really very good.

Finally:
I'm really excited about the smartphone, the price it is really worth. In my opinion it is not a step back, as has been described in many newspapers. From me, a strong buy recommendation.

EDIT:
In my e-mail to Amazon, where I have been confirmed that no refund of the difference, the amount was about me 4hrs after this review, strangely refunded.
