The Blackberry phone has always been a tall and fashionable rhythm in my mind. I grew up listening to its name. At a glance, BlackBerry gives people a business feeling. Obama is a fan of it. Although other mobile phone manufacturers are taking a smooth route, the latest BlackBerry mobile phone Passport is a wonderful square shape. Now let's take a look at this mobile phone.

In terms of specifications, BlackBerry Passport is a flagship mobile phone with strong performance. With its unique physical keyboard, BlackBerry Passport is far from a traditional BlackBerry phone.
Appearance
The front of the BlackBerry Passport is a 4.5-inch screen and a full QWERTY keyboard. The touch of the keyboard is smoother than ever before. Operating the keyboard is like sliding.
There is a 1300w pixel camera on the back. Below the camera is the Blackberry logo. There is an upward arc design on both sides of the back. The smooth arcs on the left and right sides of the screen are ingeniously integrated with the body, and the feel of use is absolutely first-class.
The back cover on the camera is removable, and the SD and SIM card slots are hidden inside.
It can be seen from the side that the thickness of the BlackBerry Passport is 9.3mm, and it adopts the frame design of brushed aluminum.
There are volume keys and a fast key on the right.
There is no micro HDMI interface at the bottom, instead, a microUSB charging port and an MHL interface are used. There are also left and right speakers.
On the top is a power button and a 3.5mm headphone jack.

keyboard
One of the characteristics of BlackBerry Passport is its unique three row keyboard. The keyboard of BlackBerry Passport is different from that of 9900 and Q10. Its keyboard is larger and wider, with softer keys and larger particles. Compared with Q10, its keyboard has a whole line less, only 3 lines, only letters on keys, and no wavy lines on Q10 and 9900 keys. There are no numbers or ALT keys on the keyboard. The keys are soft on the whole, with good sensitivity. The personal bad feeling is that long press the backspace key to make it a delete function, so if you are not careful, it can delete things unintentionally.
The unique design of the BlackBerry Passport keyboard makes it possible for my fingers not to touch the screen, so that I can perform common operations on the keyboard Compared with the previous Blackberry keypad, Passport has some innovations and enhanced preview text features.
screen
The BlackBerry Passport has a 4.5 inch square 1440 x 1440 IPS LCD display, which is the largest (453 ppi) and highest resolution BlackBerry smartphone.
It is impressive that the maximum brightness output of BlackBerry Passport is 894 nits, which makes it easier to be seen outdoors and in the sun.

operating system
Interface
Run the latest version of Blackberry operating system version 10.3. However, it still seems a bit outdated. It may be that the whole interface relies heavily on menus and submenus.
application program
The BlackBerry operating system supports third-party applications and can even copy most Android applications, but most Android applications crash on the BlackBerry platform.
Processor and memory
Blackberry also adopts the configuration of high-end mobile phones on the market. The quad core 2.2 Ghz Qualcomm Snapdragon 801, together with Qualcomm Adreno 330 GPU and powerful 3GB RAM.
Performance benchmark comparison:
network
Blackberry Passport supports 4G LTE 3G HSPA+, Unicom 3G (WCDMA), Unicom 2G/Mobile 2G (GSM), dual band WIFI, IEEE 802.11 ac ，NFC， Bluetooth 4.0
camera
Before the birth of BlackBerry Passport, no one would talk about the camera of BlackBerry phone, because it was too bad. However, BlackBerry Passport has changed. It is equipped with a 1300w pixel autofocus camera, which supports f/2.0 aperture lens, BSI sensor, optical image stabilization, LED flash and 1080p video recording. It also supports HDR, panoramic and other modes.
Sadly, the focus and shooting of BlackBerry Passport is very slow, so it is easy to blur the photos taken.
Take a sample:
Multibody media
The audio output of BlackBerry Passport is very powerful. BlackBerry once advertised its audio playback ability on its system 10. In addition to the dual speakers of BlackBerry Passport, the effect will not be worse.
Audio output comparison:
When it comes to playing video screens, BlackBerry Passport has its own hard injury. The square screen is unlikely to bring you good visual enjoyment.
Call quality
The call quality of the BlackBerry Passport is very good. Even in noisy environments, the expressive force is also good. Only when you use the headset can you hear some small static noise.
Battery
The battery is impressive. It seems that BlackBerry has made great efforts on the 3450mAh battery in BlackBerry Passport. I tested the battery performance with practice: at the beginning, the power of my mobile phone was 98%. I logged into an email account on the wifi environment, always logged into my Twitter and Facebook, took about 100 screenshots, played several videos and music, and with the repeated abuse of friends around me, the power was 15% after 16 hours.
summary
Passport is a brand new BlackBerry phone in both software and hardware. It is another attempt by BlackBerry to create a device that people want to buy and use. But the fact is that BlackBerry has fallen behind Windows Phone in ranking, which shows that BlackBerry is still far away.
The square body of BlackBerry Passport looks strange, but BlackBerry brings us more than that. Passport represents many "firsts" of Blackberry. It is the first BlackBerry phone equipped with a four core processor and the first device of BlackBerry Assistant, the voice assistant. Amazon's app store is pre installed, including 250000 Android apps for users. At the same time, BlackBerry Passport supports nearby computers and tablet devices to take over calls and SMS messages from mobile phones.
But it seems that BlackBerry Passport can only make its fans scream for it. For a new user who has never touched BlackBerry, it is difficult to accept it.
