It wasn't clear, so is it a dual Sim variant that we are getting?

Soyacincau said it is dual sim (the 2nd Sim would take up the micro sd slot). Anyway I assume it is the BB100-6 variant which is dual sim.

Have been reading reviews and it seems fine except the camera. I am fine with keyone's camera and all I wish is key2 will be comparable if not better... but have been getting mixed reviews (worse than keyone, according to gsmarena)....

Congrats man. Yup I love BB keyboard too.
Just ordered mine too.
Btw they only sell black colour, luckily which is my preferred choice

I like silver, but black is just fine, more low profile. No one would find out that I've upgraded to key2. Looks so similar to my black keyone unless they look carefully

Not sure abt now, coz it's just like an android phone with enhanced security features

In my case yes.
When my colleagues see a phone with keys they started asking about it.
There was once at the Frankfurt airport the security check official showed it to his colleague as well (my old passport...)

Got my phone also. Super fast.

I also received the mail notification today. But I haven't received any notification from my company reception (I have it delivered to my work place).
That's very quick if they could reach me today, I mean I am in Kuching..

C'mon guys and gals, looking forward to your first impression.

Absolutely agree. Live your life, not theirs

Just let them judge any way they like.
They are missing the genuine experience of using a BB.. (Even if it is an android BB)

By they way, think mine has not arrived.
Definitely they need an additional day to get it to Kuching I supposed.

I think either shoppe or the seller made a mistake. Gdex said my parcel delivery order is to pj, not Kuching. They ask me to check with seller now. Shoppe also said they can't do anything. In shoppe system they said address is correct which is kuching.

Really feel like want to cancel and refund now.

Update:
Clicked cancel, and minutes later received update that they are shipping using DHL now.
Calm myself down, and withdrew my cancellation request.

Received mine yesterday. Spent the night setting it up. Coming from KEYone it is indeed an improvement, except perhaps for the camera (subjective).

Could be a placebo effect, but find it better in terms of:
Keyboard (definitely better), capacitive scrolling (smoother), more features (could be oreo thing), rgb indicator which has a different behavior which I like it better, reception (both WiFi and network strength).

Equal:
Battery performance

Equal or a bit worse:
Camera?? Screen calibration, keyboard backlighting (a bit dim).

But overall a good upgrade for KEYone owner. If you have not used KEYone but is a keyboard lover, what are you waiting for? 😁

By the way a clear tpu casing came with it, so consider it a bonus. And the earphone is actually better too in my opinion.

Nice review from d keyone owner.
I love this phone a lot especially am d keyboard lover.
BTW I found using the clear case makes d phone a bit too bulky, hence using it naked
*
Sooner or later I'll also be using it naked I guess. Currently have the spigen ring fitted so put on case first
