After dominating the smartphone market in the 2000s, Blackberry is sailing into oblivion. Their devices will stop working on January 4th - one day after their rival Apple hit $3 trillion in market cap. Palki Sharma traces the tale of two brands.

I'd still rather have a blackberry. I can't stand touchscreens. Unfortunately, the app industry isn't built around that format, and they have some other shortcomings, so I no longer own one. But I still don't buy cars with touchscreens. Whoever thought that was the best control system for a moving vehicle or even worse a boat bouncing along the waves was cracked out of their damn minds. Physical buttons have this amazing feature of being able to find them by feel rather than having to stare them down, and of consistently working the first time you press them. They're perfect for any situation in which you should not be staring at a touchscreen, such as every single second you are operating a motor vehicle.

If it's windy, road bumpy, lots of traffic, you can still safely press buttons w/o risking an accident. I'm sorry Palki, I love your reporting, but it's the touch screens that are glitzy, shiny, gimmicky, not the Blackberry keyboards.

The QWERTY keyboard was a joy to use with hardly any typing mistakes and I could type with its keyboard faster than most touchscreen keyboards. Goodbye, Blackberry. You'll always have a dear place in my heart.

As an old BB 9000, Q10, and Keyone user, I think the features of the new 5G Blackberry must be the following: Key2-type keyboard, robust frame, long-life quick charging battery, Blackberry Secure Operating System (with compatibility to Google Play apps), clever and ergonomic facilities, Contacts app with more manipulation functions and MS Outlook compatibility (like that of BB Bold 9000). The camera must have a stabilizer, support slow motion, but no need for tons of MB picture resolutions (4K is enough). No need for fancy curved displays. Must have an easy memory insertion slot, stereo speakers (like those fantastic mini ones of BB 9000) as well as programmable notification profiles (like those of BB 9000). The back skin must be soft and leather-like. Finally, the price must not exceed the cheapest iPhone one!!!! This will boost the BB sales, hoping for a victorious come-back.

First it was Nokia, everybody HAD TO have a 3310, it was probably the largest selling phone in the world, maybe even of all time, but Nokia like Blackberry refused to change. Whoever the exec was at Nokia that insisted they stick with Symbian, made A BIG mistake, and his head should have rolled! The rest of the world jumped onto the Android train, and it went steaming ahead of the competition. The Symbian app store was an absolute ghost town in comparison to Google Play that was growing at a rate of knots. Nokia initially copied Blackberry with phones like the E70/71/72 etc, but it was Android they should have been looking to, instead they insisted on clinging to Symbian. All those who didn't adopt the mighty 'Droid, fell by the wayside.

Blackberry had at least two touch screen phones: Strom and Storm II, which was totally ignored in this report. Also BB had few other issues which were not mentioned here: 1. Installation of 3rd part app. 2. Very costly BB Messenger Service. 3. Absence of dual sim facility. Absence of Dual sim smart phone was one of the major factors for Nokia to collapse and when they realized the same, it was too late. Even Apple had realized the market for dual sim phones long ago and it started allowing Indian user to use eSIM as a secondary sim (provided it is supported by your service provider as well). Further when both Nokia and BB had tried to implement Android OS, they never realized that they are no more the market leaders. The kind of phones Samsung used to offer in 20k, same or even infirior configuration phones they used to offer within 35k to 40k range.

I never wished for Nokia n BlackBerry to go, unfortunately both very loved companies are gone. But i really wish to see Apple gone for good. I simply hate how they treat their customers, their products are never an answer to customers need, its monopoly, they set the trend n expect all customers to follow, no innovation, a ugly notch seriously? Keep removing stuff from box n behaves as if its for environment, cant fool us. Takes alot of money yet plays cheap tricks on how they price same models with different fixed memory space. Tries to have every item detached and sell for high price seperately, Irony is the hard core fan base are the only reason they are surviving but mot for long. Apple need to learn big lessons for good. People are waking up to apples tricks if they dont course correct they will be gone too.

i miss phones with actual buttons, you can chat while driving since you don't have to see the screen you can feel them. A more advanced design imo

Palki all that you said is true, however you missed out on the last straw that crippled Blackberry for good. It was in 2011 when under sea cables got cut & disrupted RIM's entire services across most part of the globe. That's when the remaining professionals on BB shifted to other smartphone options. That was the last nail in the coffin....

I liked blackberry phone and was late adopting iPhone. I was wrong about iPhone but fortunately, I was not the decision maker in Blackberry. This is the biggest challenge of top management, it is not them dictate the markets, it is ability to sense the market pulses that matters. Not what the top management thinks. Oil companies particularly ExxonMobil are now at the crossroads on their organizations and energy transition. We should wait and see if they make the right decision.
