BlackBerry Classic Tips Hat to the Past, Kicks Off Comeback Strategy

Maximum PC: Well, it's official -- BlackBerry (the company formerly known as Research In Motion, or RIM) launched its BlackBerry Classic today, a "no-nonsense" phone that harkens back to the Canadian handset maker's glory days with a physical QWERTY keyboard and built-in trackpad.

This actually looks like a solid device, and looks like BlackBerry are stepping up their hardware game. We haven't had a solid 3.5" inch display handset in years.

Is this usual? I have developed unconditional love for BlackBerry since I started the Z30 :/

Who needs a blackberry or a samsung when Motorola is killing it with their latest nexus device.

One could argue that limited stock is preventing Motorola from killing it.

who needs samsung or blackberry when the HTC One M8 is an option.

Screw you all who needs any of them when you have a Nokia 3330. Pasts drop tests perfectly. Long life batery. Has games. It will last longer hardware wise than most throwaway phones. Boom.

Bye Blackberry. Please don't come back.

You clearly have not used any of the recent BlackBerry phones.. BlackBerry is already making a nice comeback :P

I won't throw my money their way just yet. Talk to me in a year and let's see where they are. Not a Sammy fan though. Windows 8 and Android 5 are making strides, so I'll wait and see how BlackBerry fares in an even more competitive market.

Well, I was skeptical.. I do understand your point of view.. I took the risk and I don't regret it..
