Blackberry made the best productivity device. The hub, the red LED notification light and it handled better 15 years ago than current phones do today. True push email and a file system that made email attachments a breeze.
@@remi82 Tbf you can still have the values of a tech minimalist even if you're trying to go through a new phone every two months to try to find the one that fits your needs the most. It's better than getting a new iPhone Max Proussy ever year anyways if you don't need one.
hey man I wanted to ask how you spend your leisure time, do you ever binge-watch shows, or play games on weekends? I tend to have one day a week allocated to bugging out but I wanted to ask how you allocate free time.
Hey bro how are you? I was happy to see the upload notification ♥️ How’s life after college? Do you plan to do a project? Anyway good luck with whatever ur doing and my best wishes to you and ur family ❤
Really cool video ! I started using the mi qin f21pro becouse of your reddit posts , one question tho , how did you make work around the keyboard on f21pro , and how good is the typing experience on the blackberry?
Do you have set time when you use messages everyday? I get distracted by checking messages over and over. Thank you for your videos btw, you've been my inspiration for the past 3 years!
I don't speak programming or electronics or computer so I didn't understand one bit 😍😍 i came hear because I was studying with one of your old streams and wanted to see if you're still okay :) and it seems you are doing good :] happy that you are happy and please do upload more videos if u can ! Have a nice day
I can't imagine anyone being addicted to that lol. Question: Do you feel as if all the studying you did paid off as much as you thought or intended? I know you spoke about studying not just for the sake of studying but to achieve many of your goals - getting money, being disciplined etc.
Hey again James, happy Friday dude. Hope you had a nice week, and enjoy the weekend too. I’ve never used a blackberry phone before. Always used iPod touches when I was a teen in the mid 2010s. And then iPhones ever since
If you desperately want a keyboard you can also consider the Unihertz Titan, Titan Slim, or Titan Pocket. They come with Android 10 or 11, which is probably their only advantage over the Key2. Otherwise, the build quality is mediocre, their chipsets are quite slow these days, the software has none of the in-built Blackberry suite features present on the Key2, and the Titan Slim even has the audacity to have no headphone jack.
I noticed you got a Corne keyboard, is it a custom case? Or is it the Unicorne LP from Boardsource? It's kinda hard to see Also, I noticed that you don't have it on your desk in your newest video, did you give up on it? If so, why? Best regards, an ergo split enthusiast
I've thought about the key 2 I have a passport, my only issue is the lack of security updates even if i don't really do much on my phone other than calling
i use an Iphone SE since 2016 and has since become the last phone of my life. Can't imagine another phone that has the same level of "sweetspotness" that this specific phone has.
I had one two years ago but it broke , does it still have updates ? I know it had before i stopped using it , it was really powerful for an old phone ( i played genshin on it too 😂)
@@NXRIIIIIi have an iphone SE 2016 too, so i can tell! the latest iOS that can be downloaded is 15.8.1 and it works great! (this includes widgets) i really like SE cuz it's inexpensive and easy to repair. as a person who doesn’t understand technology at all, i was able to disassemble the swollen phone and replace the battery MYSELF!! i think after such joint trials, i will not part with SE until death therefore, if you are thinking about buying, i recommend it!! AND I PLAYED IT IN SEKAI!!!!!! (i have not idea how it work with genshin, cuz I have a 32GB version..)))
@@NXRIIIII Work gave me a locked down iPhone 12 so I still carry my 2016 SE as a personal daily driver. Bought in 2018 for $200CAD and it was a 128G one! I love it. Smaller than a mini. yes, still getting updates from Apple.
That's an elegant design right there. At least it's different and it has its own personality. I also use an old phone with an outdated Android, but what matters is that your apps still get updates, including the web browser, web engine, and other stuff from Google.
bro I have a small question what is your main major in C.S or what di you want to do like ( web , mobile , cyber security , tester , Data scientist , etc ) + I really love your life style and your videos it kept me motivating for my Study
Cool, review! The idea of using Emacs on a phone sounds really cool -especial with Org mode. But, as i learned with my feker alice98 keyboard the limitations between keyboards can be awkward.
the title and the end of the video are like opposite 💀 device looks dope tho! i love my dumb phone, but not something i can type notes in or manage time with a calendar sadly
I've been considering getting a light phone 2 or just a general dumbphone, I'm going to uni for game development so not much id really need a smartphone for, blackberry seems cool as a linux user though
I know you said you wanted to help people. What are your thoughts on AI? It seems it will impact greatly (perhaps the biggest impact since life on earth?), but how can we best make sure that impact is beneficial and not harmful?
I swapped my smartphone with an AGM M7 last year and it was one of the best choices I've made, i can only do 2 things with it, contact family/friends and listen to music. I still got my smartphone at home but I solely use it to check my banking and stuff like that.
I used the titan slim for a while for similar reasons. The keys literally started chipping away and eventually a key fell off after a year of light use ;-; kinda sucked big
In fact I used BlackBerry as an organizer and alarm clock for a while until it died It was wonderful I feel sorry that we no longer see any new versions of it :(
hey bro i messaged you every where you did not reply me please make a video on how you take your notes in Linux thinkpad and what else for you used your linux device please explain it deeply how to take notes on emacs . i am curious to know that i am big fan of you. i am new to linux. please made it quikly thanku
hey james i am having poblem with studying the point is i dont want to study at all (im sureu had thee kinda problem so could u guide me :) ) i will just stare at the book for 1hr then procrastinate so pls
i have been using blackberry z10 since 2014 it died in 2023 but it was great i just used it for calls thats it. i dont have any social media accounts just living life peacefully
its the last phone that blackberry ever made before , they died 💀
blackberry didnt make it. tcl did.
edit: also blackberry still exists, they pivoted to a software/security company.
Also apparently blackberry didn't die, they make cars now haha

thank you for helping us big nerds out here, i will have a nice march, thanks james!
Right down to business, no frills, no fluff, no bs. I don’t even know half the words you used but this is amazing
at this rate with the new keyboard, hes needs to rename his desk setup videos by the month
Bro I just found out your channel a week ago and when I was finished watching your 2025 set up you uploaded a new video 🙏 thank you
hey man I wanted to ask how you spend your leisure time, do you ever binge-watch shows, or play games on weekends? I tend to have one day a week allocated to bugging out but I wanted to ask how you allocate free time.
Could you do a vid or write-up about that wireless corne keyboard? I've been meaning to build one for a while now.
Finally, james has joined the split ergo keyboard supremacy.
this guy gonna make me wake up at 6 am to watch his videos, big fan keep up the work
Hey bro how are you?
I was happy to see the upload notification ♥️
How’s life after college?
Do you plan to do a project?
Anyway good luck with whatever ur doing and my best wishes to you and ur family ❤

Where do you get your shirts from?
Hey james, I was wondering what you daily routine consist of as(I assume)you're done with school
Hey man. Just curious as to what audio books and podcasts you listen to. Maybe recommend some of them
Damn, i've been waiting your review on a e-ink display for so long...
