BlackBerry Passport review: The Deal

Blackberry Passport

The Phone giant Blackbeery inroduced into the market the long awaited Blackberry Paassport. The Passport carries a spec sheet to put performance buffs at ease. With its Quad-core 2.26GHz Snapdragon 801 chip and 3GB of RAM, it's easily the most robust BlackBerry smartphone to date. The 4.5-inch square display is also of an impressive 1440 x 1440px, which results in an excellent 453ppi. It also allows you download your favorite Android Apps from Amazon

Also it come with it own challenges which includes:

• Funny never seen before design, that may affect people with large palms to use single-handedly and typing is certainly a two-hand job
• No 2160p video recording (for such an expensive device at N129,000 on Jumia)
• Battery can not be replaced 
• Three-row QWERTY keypad with no number pad
