Depends on what you miss from BB - the physical keyboard? In that case then the Q devices would be for you.

If you miss the kick-ass email handling capabilities but like to have a big screen then any of the Z devices would do.

my previous BB no physical keyboard.. maybe i miss the surfing/browsing experiences... nothing can beat BB, seriously..

somemore, even with 256mb quota, i download movie or everything on net but i never used more than 5mb/month..

BB OS 10 did not support bis package..
so if you download movie using bb10, it will drain your data..

You know, if you can really do that, I'm surprised. because if you can do that, that means you've just done something BIS was not invented for.

No. erm.. how should i Put it.
like this:
phone ---through BIS----> BlackBerry NOC -----internet-----> SERVER ----through internet--> BlackBerry NOC----through BIS----> phone
That's the picture I want you to understand.
Normal phones just connect to the internet. No BIS, no NOC. No security, no compression.
In your case, the video you downloaded should be charged under your data usage, BIS or not. However, that did not happened. For example:

100mb video that goes through BIS = 95mb in size (compressed, but only smaller)
100mb video that goes through normal internet = 100mb in size.
In your case, you claimed that your usage is 256mb per month. But after downloading a lot, you only used 5MB.
That's a lot of savings, and that wasn't what BIS was designed for.

That is why I'm surprised.

Is it an old BIS plan?

wow.. now only i know what BIS is.. hahaha

my last BIS subscription was dec 2013.. im using celcom RM25/month.. i notice my data will reduce when i stream youtube.. other than that, my data will remain the same..

p/s im prepaid user

I get your point. I had lots of friends who just took the 25/month plan and use their Blackberry's for everything- communicate, stream, tether. Turns out even if over limit they just slow it down a bit. Perfect plan for students eh  brows.gif and then they just buy small android phones for instagram etc using wifi.

Obviously yes.. Two smartphone in hand doesnt mean we need two broadband package.. Unless use dual sim smartphone..
