For those who hates blackberry......
Once I was also in ur league.....

Believe me guys I've fallen in love with the OS,with the ergonomics,with the design,with the feelings,with the usability,with the ease of use of a smartfone.
For those who r claiming u can get 8mp or 13mp camera,big display,big fone like TV,this fone is not for them.
If u are smart enough & wanna use a smartfone in ur daily b...

I purchased the phone after reading the reviews on various sites. This is my first Blackberry and I like the change from Android, though not replacing it altogether.

About the phone:

Its a robust device. The display is sharp. I do not use it for multimedia. For all other purposes (for which a business phone is meant to be) it delivers. The buttons are snappy, the size is perfect enabling it to be used by one hand when needed.

I liked the Hub part where all the communications can be access...

Really admirable.
The Best BB has ever produced..

To use BB handsets, you have to do understand them first..

I have been using Blackberry for quite a while starting with the base model. In between i have changed to Iphone and a lot many handsets apart from Blackberry but finally i landed back to Q 5.Guys if you r looking for a real smart phone pls go for it .... the battery life is excellent and u don't need a BB plan to access internet and its triple faster even you set lot many accounts.

The phone is real weightless and gives a bold look. Since its very light and bit smooth , there are chanc...

To start off i like changing my phone every 6 months, i had a lumia 720 recently and a Samsung s3 before that. I saw a friend using the new Q5 and thought that i should give the blackberry kingdom another go (used to use blackberry 3 years back) lets say i was impressed.

PROS:

-Blackberry has come up with a stellar OS that is easy to use. In the beginning you might crib about no trackpad but gesture control is the future.

-Phone never lags, that itself says volumes since its a blackberry a...

If you turn on 4g, the battery will not survive more than 8 hours. You need to be judgemental in deciding based on ur needs. However, wrt basic function as a phone - it is a good phone, like old nokia mobiles - good signal capture, high audibility, good screen visibility etc.,

This is a great phone by blackberry!
The body is all plastic but it looks pretty classy in your hand. I got the black colour and it looks absolutely amazing.
Coming to the performance of the phone, the touch is very smooth and works perfectly! No complaints at all! Multi-tasking is pretty good too and I've not experienced any lags so far. The processor speed is good enough and runs all the apps very well. The display is crystal! Beautiful resolution and being a blackberry fan, I totally love...

This is a treat for business users who like to type long emails on their phones. The best budget Qwerty phone running an amazingly fast OS. It is much better than the iOS and makes your daily work way lot easier. If you are looking for gaming experience, this is not the ideal phone but for business users who need to multi-task and get things done faster, this is the best OS around and it is definitely way more secure than any OS around.

for the past 2 months i have been searching for a good phone and atlast my search stops with BB Q5.
For the past 2 months i have almost changed mobiles.
i am qwerty keypad fan and hard core fan for blackberry but due to its BIS mandate i always stayed away from this phone and was searching for other phones with qwerty features,
i purchased, hp palm, nokia 520, samsung core duos 2, intex qwerty (worst), nokia xl and samsung galaxy duos 2 (another worst phone) all the phones had one problem or ...

new thinking, new possibilities of user experience will lead to a perfect operating system by people in this booming handheld markets....

Due to which BB and company like BB struggled... to come up and even they have lost their business and cannot compete with Android and iOS...

These situations in emerging handheld markets comes often, and BB did its fantabulous job in building new OS from Scratch which is BB 10....

It is It is Its is a great comeback from BB 10....

All you need is to j...
