Back to business with the BlackBerry Key2 — Australian Review
Source: Ausdroid English EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
In conclusion, the BlackBerry Key2 is a great device for the business focused consumer, but as a personal device, the Key2 is much harder to recommend. Why? My main concerns are the lack of Android 9 Pie (or a commitment to deliver said update), and the lacklustre camera performance. Even as a BYOD device for work, the Key2 might be a bit too much of a compromise for users that – these days – typically look for some combination of longer battery life, a great camera, and prompt software updates. The Key2 does reasonably well in most areas, but perhaps not quite well enough.

This all feeds into the frustrations of the KEY2. Although on receiving and powering up the device it was all very exciting, after a week I was fed up. Call me a snowflake, but my fingers were starting to ache, and when it came down to it, I was carrying around my own phone for entertainment and the camera anyway, which defeated the purpose of having the device in the first place.

The Blackberry Key2 looks perfectly sophisticated and functional. Like all Blackberry devices in the past, this is the businessman’s phone of choice, one who doesn’t watch videos or play games, but furiously replies to emails and texts. It’s also a power user’s phone given all the shortcut options it has. It’s certainly not for a performance enthusiast or a gamer, but anyone who still hasn’t shaken off the charm of typing on a physical keyboard should consider buying the Blackberry Key2.

BlackBerry KEY2 Review: It Means Business
Source: The Techy English EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
The BlackBerry KEY2 is one of the unique designed smartphones; it’s a classic candy bar style with a 4.5-inch IPS touchscreen display at the top and a physical smart intelligent QWERTY keyboard at the bottom. The physical keyboard offers swipe gestures along with fingerprint sensor over the top of spacebar key. On the back, the device features a rubberized texture for a grip. Talking about the keyboard, there are total 35 keys including a new shortcut key. It is by far the most intelligent way to access your favourite app. The back, home and the menu buttons are situated above the keyboard, which means you have to move your thumb above the keyboard to navigate. Underneath the volume rocker on the right-hand side is a button that does nothing out of the box. BlackBerry calls this the “convenience key” and the idea is that you can bind it to any app according to your needs.

The Key2 is a solid phone and offers all the feature that you would like to see in a premium BlackBerry phone. But as I said in the beginning, the Key2 caters to specific users who have owned a BlackBerry device in the past or those who prefer a phone with a physical keyboard. BlackBerry phones always command a high price so I wasn’t surprised to see when the Key2 was announced at Rs 42,990. If you are keen to buy a phone with a physical keyboard, BlackBerry Key2 is the only option in the market.

80% BlackBerry KEY2 review: The best BlackBerry you can buy right now
Source: India Today English EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
The KEY2 is the best BlackBerry that you can buy right now. It marries old-school charm with modern-day technology, and also manages to offer the best of both worlds in real world usage scenarios. It isn't perfect, but its clientele will probably be aware of its limitations before getting their hands on it. That's because even in its imperfections, the BlackBerry KEY2 manages to hold its head high. It is the first BlackBerry phone in years to make sense and even though there are better phones around Rs 43,000 now, the KEY2 will still find takers. Among fans and loyalists who had been waiting for the company to make a comeback. Last year's KEYone, although it was a good attempt, was not that phone. But the KEY2 is.

BlackBerry KEY2 Review – King of the Keyboards
Source: G Style Magazine English EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
With the various changes that TCL and BlackBerry have done from KEY to KEY2 it has become a vastly and more welcoming device. I have been enjoying my time with it and am continuing to use it as my daily as of this typing. Its hits on so many marks with a killer battery that goes in for days and security software that lets you keep an eye on every app in the device. The keyboard has been improved and has assigned on providing better accuracy in my typing experience. While its software is secure I feel they can go in and fix some minor glitches that will help the user. Camera isn’t anything special and while it doesn’t work for me it may just do fine for others. At its pricing I would of liked to see a bit more or even if it was maybe $50 less. Also hope with its full release that carriers will be able to push some updates out to cater to its service better. The BlackBerry KEY2 is available for $649 on their website and BestBuy.com

BlackBerry's reception has been generally good since it revealed the KEYOne. This is a brand that is certainly on the right path to a successful revival, though, it will be a very long road ahead. BlackBerry needs to figure out how to cater to its legacy users while also appealing to the younger, digital generation of smartphone users. If it doesn't, it will likely remain what it is today in 2018: a niche brand.

The new BlackBerry Key2 is a phone designed entirely for BlackBerry fans. You won't want this if you're thinking of upgrading from a Galaxy S7 and your muscle memory is trained for on-screen keyboards, but for old BlackBerry fans struggling with make-believe keyboards and autocorrect, there's something charming about a physical keyboard. It's a contender for a niche audience that doesn't care about multimedia or fancy new camera tricks like portrait mode.

And then there's the matter of its pricing, which is now a full $100 more than its predecessor's original starting cost. At a whopping $650, it's competing in a tough space – more so when there's the OnePlus 6 selling for less and leveraging the Snapdragon 845. If the price remained the same as its predecessor at $550, the BlackBerry KEY2 would be a strong contender in the mid-range space, but at $100 more, it's a tougher sell because it's encroaching upon flagship-cost territory.

You pay more than you did last year for BlackBerry’s finest, though. At $649.99, unlocked, the KEY2 carries a $100 premium over its predecessor. That also puts it a mere $50 from an unlocked Galaxy S9, and that’s a problem. Unless you really, really want the hardware keyboard, the Samsung bests BlackBerry on screen, camera, performance, and specs. For those devoted to physical QWERTY that may still be worth it; everybody else may well find the market – and their fingers – have moved on.

It might sound like I'm damning the phone with faint praise, but whatever: The BlackBerry KEY2 is the best Android-powered BlackBerry ever made, and it improves on last year's formula in almost every way. That said, the KEY2 remains a questionable option for most smartphone shoppers -- you could get a more-powerful Android phone like the OnePlus 6 for less money, and I suspect most people have moved on from physical keyboards without looking back. That said, for the right people -- people who long for tactile keys and data privacy -- the KEY2 just might be the right device at the right time.

The Key2 is in many ways unsurprising. It takes TCL’s BlackBerry redesign and tweaks it to improve the keyboard, cameras and software. The speed key is a niche addition to an already niche phone but it’s a thoughtful change, and 6GB as standard is notable.

The BlackBerry Key2 has a great little keyboard and gives you more control over your privacy than other Android phones do.

Hands on: BlackBerry Key2 review
Source: Techradar English EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
The new BlackBerry Key2 is a phone designed entirely for BlackBerry fans. You won't want this if you're thinking of upgrading from a Galaxy S7, although there's something charming about a physical keyboard still. A slightly underpowered CPU might not be up to all tasks, but it helps keep the price a little lower and seems to combine well with the improvements BlackBerry has brought.

BlackBerry Key2 hands-on review

It's hard to place the BlackBerry Key2 in any meaningful industry-wide context. It is part of what will likely always remain an extremely specialized niche and one that can't be judged against the usual criteria.

BlackBerry KEY2 hands-on: It’s all about speed
Source: Android Authority English EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
BlackBerry’s renaissance launched with aplomb last year with the BlackBerry KEYone. A year on, and two new variants later, including the first dual SIM BlackBerry ever, the company is back with its new keyboard-toting phone, the BlackBerry KEY2. It’s got an updated design, a new special key, and the first ever dual camera on a BlackBerry, but should this be your new phone? Let’s take a look!
