A lot of people (including my kids) make fun of me because ever since my first BlackBerry phone, I have been addicted and have never bought anything else. My kids switched to apple and subsequently samsung, but I stuck it out with BlackBerry and now it's like we're being rewarded!! I've always had a great experience with my BlackBerry and have never felt deprived. Thank you for making these videos. BlackBerry and Crackberry rocks!! :D
Claudia - you're one of the winners in the giveaway!! Email me -- kevin @ crackberry.com -- with your mailing address and I'll ship you your phone! crackberry.com/keyone-winners
Claudia Castaneda after my q10 I scuttled over to the iphone 6s it bored and angered me. Outdated OS and inexplicable memory fascist. And although RIM didn't make it directly, my Keyone feels as close to a BlackBerry as well ever see again. It feels right.
I used to work for a cell phone company and I did drop testing. 6 planes (top, bottom, back, front, left side and right side) from 6 foot, 5 drops each plane. No damage allowed. Bet we can't do that on anything on the market today!
Built stronger than Samsung and iPhone. People just love to hate this phone. This can only mean one thing. Blackberry hit the bulls eye with this phone.
I'm always bragging about BlackBerry to my brother. Especially my passport. Talking about how professional it looks and it's durability. I make jokes like, 'if this phone hits the floor, the floor will rather break'. Well I know he watches jerryrigseverything and I'm just waiting for him to start talking about the Keyone. The video that Kevin made at least provides us the info that there actually is an adhesive that sticks the screen and the phone together. Also I think it's pretty good that BlackBerry mobile put out a statement to assist customers if they ran into such a problem. The Keyone would solve a number of problems that I am having with bb10. After u become a BlackBerry user it's kinda hard to move to another phone. I mean samsung just seems plasticky to me. Same with some android phones out there. Either their battery is bad or some other thing. I've been very happy with my BlackBerry Passport. OS easy to use and it makes multitasking very possible. I can never bring myself to buy an iPhone. NOPE!!!. I just can't. I see them as over priced, no expansion slot, new phones just look like their predecessors, etc. Again varied problems like being able to fly my drone cause I presently can't use DJI GO on my passport, my bank of America app doesn't work anymore, my chase bank app doesn't work anymore, since the update from 10.3.2 to 10.3.3 my passport has been sluggish, etc
The KeyOne is solid! Thanks for the demo CBK. My daily driver currently is the Dtek50. Haven't used a physical keyboard since the 9700. During my Project Management training a few weeks ago I made a presentation about BlackBerry. Everybody was shocked on how many devices BlackBerry has released in the past 3 years( Dtek series, Z30 my old driver, PRIV etc) right here in Canada.
True to your word Kevin it's a tough phone that should easily hold up. Good to know the real world test is clear evidence that we have a rock solid phone. Cheers!
omg ...great work Kevin ,great to see the keyone’s durability in a real world test , I have been a blackberry user ever since ,that was contrary to the one I watched recently about the screen popping out easily..thanks for sharing your video..you have made everyone’s decision to purchase this great device way so easy..keep up the great work…I would love to have a keyone
Awesome Kevin. Honestly, I was worried about the durability of this phone after reading and seeing some negative posts. I was seriously considering taking this phone back. I have until tomorrow. After watching this video however, I am still proud to own a BlackBerry and will be rocking this phone with pleasure and pride! Thank you once again for doing this test.
I want a KEYone!!!! Haven't had a Blackberry since the Storm. Held out for the Torch that never made it to Verizon so I gave up on Blackberry. Been eyeing the KEYone though as my comeback phone.. :D
I'm glad you made another durability video. People blew the Jerryrigeverything video out of proportion. The KEYone only died in his "hypothetical apocalypse" test. I really want one!!! Great video!!!
Jeez... THAT'S A TANK NOT A PHONE!!! Now that you've cleared the air with regards to the supposed "Lack of durability" on this phone, looks like I've gotta get me a KeyONE! I love how you addressed this without bashing JerryRigEverything, and that it's truly okay, to have a BlackBerry without a case, just as nature intended ;) Thanks for clearing the air CBK, love your work!
7 лет назад+30
I was surprised when the Keyone's screens didnt crack or flip out so easily like people said.
This was great to see. I love knowing BlackBerrys are still durable. It's also fun to see my first BlackBerry best a durability test. No wonder I hold it to a high standard.
I have been obsessing about this phone to replace my 6-year-old HTC Status that doesn't ring, with keys that don't work, and no memory to run any apps (you may cry for/laugh at me now), but was very apprehensive because of other videos I saw where the screen popped out fairly easily. Thank you so much for showing its durability and redeeming this phone. I will continue to save up for it.
Those are fantastic tests! You've alleviated some of my fears about the durability of the KeyOne from watching some other videos. I'm looking forward to getting my hands on one of these :)
I'm really glad you did this. Difficult to watch, considering I can't even afford one, but this is what CrackBerry is all about. Grounded truths about the devices. Keep up the good work. You're like legit the official BlackBerry site.
I appreciate everything you've done for a BlackBerry family Kevin. Keep Rocking Kevin!!!! This is a really well built phone sturdy, refined and even attractive for a phone that seeks to be more about productivity than fashion. I am sorry that others who have left negative reviews have had problems. I'm impressed with the build quality. The Key-one is a superb phone! It does everything well.
As expected in real world... Iphone is nice only into its package... outside it is often broken. The S8 is a broken glass. Both need extra protection (so what's the point to have a so thin and fragile device). the Keyone is better. But......
Great testing! The Keyone is much more durable than the others. I switched from Blackberry to Samsung and regret it. I would love to win this so I can go back to being a Blackberry user. I would never switch again!
thanks for the great videos and your dedication to blackberry!!! i work for the wireless industry in the US and i love the brand. i hate seeing people taking blackberry as unimportant, so thank you for all the support!!!
CrackBerry Kevin I believe you. I could see your biceps bulging through that T-Shirts of yours. ;). Lol. Keep up the good work! Now I don't think I have to worry about my KEYone anymore. :D.
Great work CBK! I had very serious concerns after the KEYoneScreenGate vid was released. Fantastic to see real world testing and it's surprising durability. Thanks!
And if you drop BB Passport from car you hear it and phone will be absolutely fine. And... if you drop or push on old nokia with your car.. your Tesla will break
thanks for the test vid. it seems more fragile than my classic, but perhaps not. i would be getting a case for it though. this seems like it will be a niche device. do you think there will be more choice in cases for this?
It's not available in the Netherlands yet so yes, I would like to win :) Also mabye next time let it fall while cycling, something we do a lot here in The Netherlands.
actually this is the most crazy phone breaking test I have seen. I have watched a lot over the years in selecting my phones. Blackberry is one of the most durable and toughest phones ever made. I had a bb 9900 and also a curve too. They are super tough. I have a passport which is super great built quality too. But suffering from certain restrictions when it comes to communication apps which is essential for my work. From the looks of it keyone is really well design.I think it is one of the best best ergonomics phones there is. I dont think keyone can even be remotely labeled as a badly design less durable phone. In my view it is a great phone. if i have the opportunity it will surly be my next phone. :D Guess BB keyone with android can fix me if I get one of the two phones.
I don't know why some people judge phones by how they stand up to dropping. For me the most important things when looking for a smart phone is: 1. Blackberry 2. battery life 3. typing experience 4. availability of key apps (not the amount of apps in the store). Keyone suits me just fine, and since i'm not a diver don't give two hoots whether it can survive being dropped in water. So I wouldn't mind you handing me one of those test KEYone BB.
Would love to try the Keyone, saw it in person at the phone kiosk today and the salesperson was very enthusiastic as it was his personal device. Happy that Blackberry is still providing a physical keyboard option in the marketplace!
Thank you for conducting these tests Kevin. In this day and age people are always looking for the next "Bend-gate". Everything has a breaking point or flaw. I work in a guitar shop and sell Les Paul guitars. I've seen the head stock break from a simple topple to the ground. Yet people still spend tons of money buying them, Go figure.
Thank you for testing the KEYone's durability in real world conditions. i often have my phone in the back pocket like my Passport SE. Im glad that the screen is quite durable whilst in the pocket. Secret Sit Test!
2/4 damaged in this video. Thank goodness. It was hard to see them being tested. Thanks for doing this video because I know I won't be testing it the way you did.
Amazing video! Wow, you did a terrific job of taking potential day-to-day hazards and elevated them, step by step, to out right torture. Awesome video about an awesome phone! Clever, entertaining, AND informative. Great work CBK!
Very creative real world tests....love the Tesla touch :) I look forward to getting back to the BlackBerry tactile keyboard experience, so hopefully I'm a winner of one of the survivors! tks!
You always have the best videos. This was a LOT of fun. I liked especially that you did the same thing to all the top phones now a days. And they survived a lot. Loved the video. thanks!
Wow! CBK this is the most unique real world durability test ever!!! You made me suffer a lot in every test. You breaking them and I can't afford to buy one right now.
Watched your durability test while visiting mom. She insisted on watching it again and loved you and your screen presence. Especially your "200 pounds of Canadian beef" comment. "Easy to watch & informative" - she said. Consider her your newest CBK fan. Happy to see the Bold survived the wall test - that was my very first BB! Cheers & thx! PS, won't turn down your #III or #IIII ltd edition K1s if you haven't already given them away :-)
I wanted a 🔑1 since it was known as Mercury, eager to have it to replace my dearest last BB, the Classic. Unfortunately it's not yet launched in the market in Beirut Lebanon, and no news of when it will be available. I hope one of the two devices will be mine, dieing to grab a 🔑1. Congrats to the lucky winners, hope I'm one of the fortunate two. Keep on the good work CBK.
I'm so happy that you put this video up. Now we see that the KeyOne is actually a durable phone. I just received mine and ready to explore. see you at the Atlanta meetup!!
Extremely impressed! I'm proud that KEYone outlasted the SG8 and iPhone devices. Thanks for investing in and trying to destroy those devices in the interest of science. Good also to see the Rogers receipt. No one can claim that you got special devices from Blackberry Mobile to test.
Never owned a smartphone yet, but was always fond of the blackberry's keyboard. The experiment was very informative and practical. Thanks for the great insight.
Great video, I appreciate the brick wall and the launch tests specifically. I'm considering buying one myself, do you have any recommendations for phone cases for the keyone?
Solid real world. Trying to think if I should be worried about the dunk tests, but I haven't dunked a phone in years. Thanks for the reassurance! Amazon backorder still a few weeks out!
I want the KEYone! I'm not surprised the BlackBerry held up better than the others. I've had a Q10 for 3.5 years and a Bold 9900 for several years before that and have never had them break on me (unlike other phones I had prior to going to BlackBerry - I think I had some Samsung thing for less than a year at one point). I drop my phone on almost a daily basis and one time, I tried to break the fall with my foot and instead accidentally drop kicked my phone across the room. I'm pretty sure BlackBerry phones are made either of or by honey badgers.
Fair enough for the people who are worried, remember when people stared to speak about bendable iPhones, this videos is good message and fair test for me and all the people who were worried, thanks.
Hi Kevin, it's a good video showing the durability of the BlackBerry KEYone. Especially the Tesla Launch Mode test but the loose display panel is a bit of a concern. Overall, I am impressed with it and would love to have one for myself. My Samsung is literally struggling to chug along with my workflow despite being bought just a year ago. That part where you drop the KEYone in the toilet is gross though. I would not want to touch that. LOL.
Great video Kevin, I do find it reassuring for those of us interested in the KeyOne. While I was disappointed with the result on JerryRigEverything's video, yours was more focused on the real use of a device, so in the end it's more useful for most. I'm eagerly waiting to know if and when the KeyOne will be offered in Mexico. At home we're interested in getting at least 3 and a business partner wants one as an upgrade to his Passport. So it'd be great to win one at least for the time being! ;) Keep up the great work, I'm very glad to see continuous videos from CB! :)
Hey Kevin, being a Blackberry fan.I didn't like the part of wasting the old collectible 8700 & 9700. KeyOne is fine, you can waste them as much as you can !! Apart from this, good test though to prove its durability to the world. Thanks for making this video.
Hands down without a shadow of a doubt one of the best reviews in terms of durability out there. You Sir, thanks a lot. My contact is also up in 1 month so considering one of these.
This is exactly the real life test I am looking for when deciding if a phone is tough for everyday use or not. Time to find a store the have one in stock, as they are disappearing rather quick from everywhere. Good job on the video CBK.
before all the screen popping propaganda. I dropped my keyone on the road, when I got static from my car while closing the car door. So in reaction to static I flung my phone 10,12 feet away and almost 8,9 feet high on the road few scratches on the sides and on screen very minor still looks brand new.. Loved the built and weight..
Crackberry Kevin, my son and I thoroughly enjoyed your video, and laughed. We were educated as well, and I can't wait to purchase my KeyOne. Do you have any more to give away? Blessings!
Thanks for helping me decide on it Kevin 😍 I can't wait for this phone to get here! Literally dying for one... Hope I can afford it though, heard it's pretty pricey.
my 2008 BlackBerry Bold lasted for ever even after dropping it a 100 times maybe. retired it eventually. Nothing to beat the voice calls clarity on BlackBerry. Been using the PRIV since November 2015. it is a landline replacement. Can't say that about iPhone or any other Android. I am assuming KEYone is comparable. KB is a must! I actually like the slide-out on PRIV.
Kevin... the Awesome guy! thanks Bro. I knew KEYone will be better than the others. I would like to see how the KEYone reacts if "by mistake" you left the phone inside the your car for a couple hours now that the weather is extremely hot and the phone will definitely get the hit (and even you can put it right on the front board of your car while the sun is its best) . After a couple hours, I would like to see how the KEYone responds immediately after you take it from inside your car.

Claudia Castaneda 🤘🤘
Your durability test made me feel absolutely safe to decide to purchase the keyone! Thanks for an awesome video!
I used to work for a cell phone company and I did drop testing. 6 planes (top, bottom, back, front, left side and right side) from 6 foot, 5 drops each plane. No damage allowed. Bet we can't do that on anything on the market today!
That's an awesome job to have!
CrackBerry Kevin thanks so much Kevin I think its a fair test but if tcl works on the advesive bit then the phone would seriously become a tank
Built stronger than Samsung and iPhone.
People just love to hate this phone. This can only mean one thing. Blackberry hit the bulls eye with this phone.
geminisids mine just died yesterday due to little rain, it was in my pocket “built stronger” my ass
@@dayalpyari liar you cant even afford one. Idiot!
Everytime a KEYone was dropped I died a little inside! Great real-world tests!
Smitty Werbenjagermanjenson Yeah that totally hurt me to watch!
Awesome tough phone

Great video Kevin! This should silence those BB critics and haters!
The KeyOne is solid! Thanks for the demo CBK. My daily driver currently is the Dtek50. Haven't used a physical keyboard since the 9700.

So, there we have it. The KEYone is more than rugged enough for every day use.
Awesome Kevin. Honestly, I was worried about the durability of this phone after reading and seeing some negative posts. I was seriously considering taking this phone back.
I have until tomorrow.
After watching this video however, I am still proud to own a BlackBerry and will be rocking this phone with pleasure and pride!
Thank you once again for doing this test.
I want a KEYone!!!! Haven't had a Blackberry since the Storm. Held out for the Torch that never made it to Verizon so I gave up on Blackberry. Been eyeing the KEYone though as my comeback phone.. :D
I'm glad you made another durability video. People blew the Jerryrigeverything video out of proportion. The KEYone only died in his "hypothetical apocalypse" test. I really want one!!! Great video!!!
Keyone proved it is as Strong as SUPERMAN...
SuperKEYONE......
Jeez... THAT'S A TANK NOT A PHONE!!! Now that you've cleared the air with regards to the supposed "Lack of durability" on this phone, looks like I've gotta get me a KeyONE! I love how you addressed this without bashing JerryRigEverything, and that it's truly okay, to have a BlackBerry without a case, just as nature intended ;)
Thanks for clearing the air CBK, love your work!
I was surprised when the Keyone's screens didnt crack or flip out so easily like people said.
I love the desing, glass on iPhone and s8 breaks really easily. Keyone instead looks amazing! I can't wait to review it if I'll get one.
The KeyOne is the One
Thanks Kevin! I was a bit concerned when I saw the JerryRigEverything video. Your "real world" tests now give me a relief.
Although I am sold on the S8 family, the KeyOne could be my first ever Blackberry device. Make it happen Crackberry. I want number III for the record.
This was great to see. I love knowing BlackBerrys are still durable. It's also fun to see my first BlackBerry best a durability test. No wonder I hold it to a high standard.
Great real video glad blackberry kicked butt!! Definally sharing this video spread the blackberry love#blackberryforlife❤️👍🏻
I have been obsessing about this phone to replace my 6-year-old HTC Status that doesn't ring, with keys that don't work, and no memory to run any apps (you may cry for/laugh at me now), but was very apprehensive because of other videos I saw where the screen popped out fairly easily. Thank you so much for showing its durability and redeeming this phone. I will continue to save up for it.
Great job. Awesome BB. and So not like all those other slabs.
Those are fantastic tests! You've alleviated some of my fears about the durability of the KeyOne from watching some other videos. I'm looking forward to getting my hands on one of these :)
That screen really took a beating compared to the iPhone, pretty decent.
I'm really glad you did this. Difficult to watch, considering I can't even afford one, but this is what CrackBerry is all about. Grounded truths about the devices. Keep up the good work. You're like legit the official BlackBerry site.
Great test...Kevin your are crazy....
I appreciate everything you've done for a BlackBerry family Kevin. Keep Rocking Kevin!!!!
This is a really well built phone sturdy, refined and even attractive for a phone that seeks to be more about productivity than fashion. I am sorry that others who have left negative reviews have had problems. I'm impressed with the build quality.
The Key-one is a superb phone! It does everything well.
As expected in real world... Iphone is nice only into its package... outside it is often broken. The S8 is a broken glass. Both need extra protection (so what's the point to have a so thin and fragile device). the Keyone is better. But......
Great testing! The Keyone is much more durable than the others. I switched from Blackberry to Samsung and regret it. I would love to win this so I can go back to being a Blackberry user. I would never switch again!
With whatsapp discontinuing their support for BB10 a new Keyone will definitely be a blessing.
thanks for the great videos and your dedication to blackberry!!! i work for the wireless industry in the US and i love the brand. i hate seeing people taking blackberry as unimportant, so thank you for all the support!!!
id like the 9700, would be cool to have
Thomas H, I miss my 9700! I have no doubts that if I dusted it off an slapped a new battery in it, she would fire right up!
that would be interesting, maybe you should do it : )
I still use my BlackBerry Bold 4 9900
Porsche p9981 here
Kevin Parra did you buy that new?
I'm glad you went through this to show how tough it really is. thanks
One thing we know for sure: Jerry is stronger than Kevin. lol.
Joke. Nice video Kevin! :)
Give me three months to train.. I used to have super human arm wrestling skills.
CrackBerry Kevin I believe you. I could see your biceps bulging through that T-Shirts of yours. ;). Lol. Keep up the good work! Now I don't think I have to worry about my KEYone anymore. :D.
Do you think Jerry is taking steroids ???
guys name is Zach not Jerry
It is not possible! If his name is Zach then why does not he called his channel Zachrigseverything? (pointing head)
Great work CBK! I had very serious concerns after the KEYoneScreenGate vid was released. Fantastic to see real world testing and it's surprising durability. Thanks!
And if you drop BB Passport from car you hear it and phone will be absolutely fine. And... if you drop or push on old nokia with your car.. your Tesla will break
Wow, I've been considering getting a blackberry phone recently. Who'd have thought the keyone was that tough. Great video!
thanks for the test vid. it seems more fragile than my classic, but perhaps not. i would be getting a case for it though. this seems like it will be a niche device. do you think there will be more choice in cases for this?
It's not available in the Netherlands yet so yes, I would like to win :)
Also mabye next time let it fall while cycling, something we do a lot here in The Netherlands.
Yeah, do a cycle crash test!
actually this is the most crazy phone breaking test I have seen. I have watched a lot over the years in selecting my phones. Blackberry is one of the most durable and toughest phones ever made.

finally a good durability test video that has stuff that would actually happen to your phone!
Happy to see the Keyone holding up. Miss the days when Blackberry was a top competitor.
Would love to try the Keyone, saw it in person at the phone kiosk today and the salesperson was very enthusiastic as it was his personal device. Happy that Blackberry is still providing a physical keyboard option in the marketplace!
Thank you for conducting these tests Kevin. In this day and age people are always looking for the next "Bend-gate". Everything has a breaking point or flaw. I work in a guitar shop and sell Les Paul guitars. I've seen the head stock break from a simple topple to the ground. Yet people still spend tons of money buying them, Go figure.

Amazing video! Wow, you did a terrific job of taking potential day-to-day hazards and elevated them, step by step, to out right torture. Awesome video about an awesome phone! Clever, entertaining, AND informative. Great work CBK!
Awesome! I've had an iPhone for awhile, but Blackberry will always be my first love. This might be the phone to get me back to Blackberry.
Very creative real world tests....love the Tesla touch :)
I look forward to getting back to the BlackBerry tactile keyboard experience, so hopefully I'm a winner of one of the survivors!
tks!
You always have the best videos. This was a LOT of fun. I liked especially that you did the same thing to all the top phones now a days. And they survived a lot. Loved the video. thanks!
Wow! CBK this is the most unique real world durability test ever!!! You made me suffer a lot in every test. You breaking them and I can't afford to buy one right now.

Great video. That brick wall challenge was absolutely brutal!
I wanted a 🔑1 since it was known as Mercury, eager to have it to replace my dearest last BB, the Classic. Unfortunately it's not yet launched in the market in Beirut Lebanon, and no news of when it will be available.
I hope one of the two devices will be mine, dieing to grab a 🔑1.
Congrats to the lucky winners, hope I'm one of the fortunate two.
Keep on the good work CBK.
Hopefull you'll find your way to a KEYone soon. You're gonna love it!
Would love to one! Huge BB fan and think the KEYone is amazing! No doubt that Blackberry's are tougher than any other phone!
Oh man. Those KEYone's took a beating but faired really well. Looks like they would be a replacement for my Nexus 6. Thanks CBK.
I'm so happy that you put this video up. Now we see that the KeyOne is actually a durable phone. I just received mine and ready to explore. see you at the Atlanta meetup!!
Extremely impressed! I'm proud that KEYone outlasted the SG8 and iPhone devices. Thanks for investing in and trying to destroy those devices in the interest of science. Good also to see the Rogers receipt. No one can claim that you got special devices from Blackberry Mobile to test.
I Learned that BlackBerry Key One is the toughest phone on the market to date. Crackberry Kevin, you have convinced me, I now want one!
Never owned a smartphone yet, but was always fond of the blackberry's keyboard.
The experiment was very informative and practical.
Thanks for the great insight.
Great review! Missing my blackberry already...blackberry has improved good job!!! Awesome video kev! two thumbs up
Great video, I appreciate the brick wall and the launch tests specifically. I'm considering buying one myself, do you have any recommendations for phone cases for the keyone?
Truly fantastic test u did. Thanks for supporting BB
Solid real world. Trying to think if I should be worried about the dunk tests, but I haven't dunked a phone in years.
Thanks for the reassurance! Amazon backorder still a few weeks out!
Love this video. After watching multiple reviews, and hearing all goodies and disappointments, I finally decided and ordered one today.
Looking forward to being able to pick up a Keyone. Love my Passport... just waiting for my device balance to come down a little before upgrading.
I want the KEYone!
I'm not surprised the BlackBerry held up better than the others. I've had a Q10 for 3.5 years and a Bold 9900 for several years before that and have never had them break on me (unlike other phones I had prior to going to BlackBerry - I think I had some Samsung thing for less than a year at one point). I drop my phone on almost a daily basis and one time, I tried to break the fall with my foot and instead accidentally drop kicked my phone across the room. I'm pretty sure BlackBerry phones are made either of or by honey badgers.
I think I sharted a little when you first said that you were going to do a physical test. Extremely proud that it survived vs Samsung and iPhone.
great video Kevin! glad to see the KEYone is more durable than iPhone 7 plus and Samsung S8.
I was impressed at how well the KEYone survived! 👊
Awesome video, and I appreciate your dedication to BlackBerry! I can't wait to get my hands on a KEYone sometime!
I was cautious by Jerryrigeverything's durability test popping off the screen so easily but you have restored my faith quite a bit!
I'm glad that it's more durable that it's being said by others. 👍🏻 and I like your standing desk by the way 😁😁
I'm loving the latest designs from BlackBerry. Sadly, mobile phone shops aren't really stocking them here in the UK anymore. I miss the keyboard.
Fair enough for the people who are worried, remember when people stared to speak about bendable iPhones, this videos is good message and fair test for me and all the people who were worried, thanks.
Hi Kevin, it's a good video showing the durability of the BlackBerry KEYone. Especially the Tesla Launch Mode test but the loose display panel is a bit of a concern.
Overall, I am impressed with it and would love to have one for myself. My Samsung is literally struggling to chug along with my workflow despite being bought just a year ago.
That part where you drop the KEYone in the toilet is gross though. I would not want to touch that. LOL.
Great video Kevin, I do find it reassuring for those of us interested in the KeyOne. While I was disappointed with the result on JerryRigEverything's video, yours was more focused on the real use of a device, so in the end it's more useful for most.
I'm eagerly waiting to know if and when the KeyOne will be offered in Mexico. At home we're interested in getting at least 3 and a business partner wants one as an upgrade to his Passport. So it'd be great to win one at least for the time being! ;)
Keep up the great work, I'm very glad to see continuous videos from CB! :)
Was put off slightly by recent reports of the screen but these tests seem to put those worries to bed! I'd love that keyone, Kevin!
Great Video, you removed my worries and validated why my favorite model was the 9700.
I've been following every video about the KeyONE. Absolutely love to win one . Good luck with the rest of the videos!
Impressive testing. It is good to see that TCL is keeping up the BB tradition of quality.
Hey Kevin, being a Blackberry fan.I didn't like the part of wasting the old collectible 8700 & 9700.
KeyOne is fine, you can waste them as much as you can !!
Apart from this, good test though to prove its durability to the world.
Thanks for making this video.
Kevin thanks for the video I thought you really made a good argument on how good the build quality for the KEYone is.
Hands down without a shadow of a doubt one of the best reviews in terms of durability out there. You Sir, thanks a lot. My contact is also up in 1 month so considering one of these.
This is exactly the real life test I am looking for when deciding if a phone is tough for everyday use or not. Time to find a store the have one in stock, as they are disappearing rather quick from everywhere. Good job on the video CBK.
before all the screen popping propaganda. I dropped my keyone on the road, when I got static from my car while closing the car door. So in reaction to static I flung my phone 10,12 feet away and almost 8,9 feet high on the road few scratches on the sides and on screen very minor still looks brand new.. Loved the built and weight..
Crackberry Kevin, my son and I thoroughly enjoyed your video, and laughed. We were educated as well, and I can't wait to purchase my KeyOne. Do you have any more to give away? Blessings!
As expected, KeyOne is durable.. That metal frame looks unique and the design is really different from other phones!
best drop / durability test I've seen so far. I'd be honoured to win of of these devices. thanks for the chance crackberry.
Thanks for helping me decide on it Kevin 😍 I can't wait for this phone to get here! Literally dying for one... Hope I can afford it though, heard it's pretty pricey.
my 2008 BlackBerry Bold lasted for ever even after dropping it a 100 times maybe. retired it eventually. Nothing to beat the voice calls clarity on BlackBerry. Been using the PRIV since November 2015. it is a landline replacement. Can't say that about iPhone or any other Android. I am assuming KEYone is comparable. KB is a must! I actually like the slide-out on PRIV.
Kevin... the Awesome guy! thanks Bro. I knew KEYone will be better than the others. I would like to see how the KEYone reacts if "by mistake" you left the phone inside the your car for a couple hours now that the weather is extremely hot and the phone will definitely get the hit (and even you can put it right on the front board of your car while the sun is its best) . After a couple hours, I would like to see how the KEYone responds immediately after you take it from inside your car.
Great real-world tests! As usual BB gives us a well built phone.
Nice video! Great job in showing how durable the KeyOne is! It's an amazing phone!
It looks pretty tough. You wouldnt think that watching other channels. Thanks for clearing that up. I'm a long term BB user.
