a little bit overpriced for a sd660 phone

but i think for business user, this would be a good phone. just a slight upgrade from keyone, nothing too great.
*
I agree about the price. But what would be a good price for this SD660 in your opinion? Im currently using SD625, a xiaomi, it is only RM800. the SD660 is in the same middle-bracket chip as the SD 625 right? But it is 3x as expensive.

i would be okay for a 660 to be priced around 1.3-1.8. i guess they need a big profit margin since they are selling very little quantity compared to other smartphone brand.
*
If the prices were cheaper, they would probably able to sell more

A sub 2k price would be great. All I want is the physical keyboard on an android

Since I skipped the Priv and KeyOne, I might just grab this Key2. biggrin.gif

Saya pun sama. I dah pasang niat, next case that matches the Key2 would be be used as a reasonable excuse to buy the key 2 cool2.gif cool2.gif cool2.gif

Hopefully no stock limitation as it says with every sales of the phone on that day
*
No I mean, the package itself may be limited. They may hold only 100 phones or so. Just a guess. But it is normal for promotions to have limited stocks, once it runs out you wont be able to buy that promotional package anymore.

who operates that shopee listing? blackberry or some random reseller?

i remember buying phones from directd where they are all not factory sealed. they have all been opened and sealed using in-house seal.

Good question! Well I checked and found this, it looks like it is blackberry official malaysia? Haha I cant really tell. Help judge for us..

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

Actually can consider lucky throughout my BlackBerry products. Out of 9 ownerships, 1 kena. Guess RIM products were sturdier.

Yeah, this is NOT RIM. Some Canadian company designed it, but manufacturing outsourced to China, but they don't make enough to achieve the right economy of scale, so price per unit is much more expensive than other models

Problem solved for this issue. All it took was a factory reset. Which was not difficult but troublesome/tideous sad.gif And maannn this phone is so so good for productivity. I don’t think any other phones come’s close to the productivity level that the key2 achieved! Hands down for Key2 for productivity!!
*
Can you explain the "productivity" part? Other than being able to type on the physical keyboard, what other productivity enhancement have you personally experienced over other phones?
