DTEK60 for $700 is kinda big mistake from BlackBerry.

USD 535, quite okay. SD 820, 4GB RAM, 2K display, but nothing special anymore with BlackBerry rebranding phone. The only thing that special from BlackBerry now is BB10 and physical keyboard with sensor on it.

BB10 is more or less dead... A pity for such an awesome OS, tho I've never used a BB10 device.

I still keep my Playbook tho... Still the best tablet in terms of multitasking and user friendly

Finally got my D50 today!!!!

Dumbass me.... Only when I got the phone I realised that it's on nano SIM! So, can't test the call or reception quality.

First impression was this phone is LIGHT! The back was grippy. A refreshing change on those smooth back on all phones out there.

Power on took quite a while. Then I was prompted for an update and I duly comply. As it updates, the phone heats up but nothing alarming. I know it's not gonna go KABOOM....

Then, it's set up time. My goodness! So many things to set-up.... I LOVE IT!!!

Tried the camera. Quality is passable but really struggle on low light condition. Pix came out dirty. But outdoor shots is decent. Maybe it's me not used to the phone yet, can't seem to figure out how to take a pano shot while holding the phone in landscape mode. Can only take pano shots in portrait mode??? Wierd. Many complained about the loc of the power button. I don't know but dbl tap to turn ON/OFF the screen works great. I only touched the physical button twice... Once for power up, once for power down. No issue for me.

I know many reviewers kept saying the D50 has a so-so spec. While I haven't put the phone under intense load ie play games, the phone performed well and smooth. FB, Twitters e-mails all buttery smooth, Didn't set up WhatsApp tho...

Now the phone is fully charged but I powered it down, Put it back in the box. Going off for an overseas assignment. Will only get a nano SIM when I'm back. Until then, can't give much more...

Oh by the way, the screen is quite good and the dual speakers are unbelievable! Played YouTube while the phone laid flat and the sound is so clear!

So far so good.... Onve I really use this phone, then I'll have a better idea on what it can handle/can't handle.

From G5 under MobileSolution. Packed nicely with bubble wraps but not in a sealed box. No issue with that, tho... rclxms.gif
