    Camera is a nice improvement too. It's not a phone that will compete with the high-end phones but for the price, it's a superior communication device, fast and great battery life

    Love having the full keyboard. Phone runs smooth. It was some work to to get text to work with Verizon. Phone gets great signal and speakers are loud and clear for phone calls. Camera works fine. Photos are nicer then the essential ph1. And runs pub g on low rez. Dual sim is awesom. Note you cannot have both Sims with an SD card. All and all great communication device!

    Overall this a a great phone. I used the phone for work and as my personal cell. No lag time like with my keyone which was the only reason I switched phone. I don't play games or watch videos. Too busy working and raising a family. If you are a diehard blackberry fan and you like to type on a keyboard I highly recommend this. AND yes this phone does work on the Verizon network. If anyone is telling you it doesn't they are wrong.

    The Key2 LE is a smart smart phone. The keyboard allows me to get to my tasks and apps quickly . Security is great. I enjoy the radio which makes my work time more enjoyable. The virtual keyboard also is practical. I have the atomic red phone which is great looking. My daily driver and I am very satisfied.

    The BlackBerry Key2 LE is my fourth BlackBerry. I am addicted to physical keyboards. To me, this is the best BlackBerry to date. The Android operating system functions just fine and offers a full selection of apps. The camera produces beautiful photos. Call quality is clear. I know I'm "old school" when it comes to this phone, but it meets my needs perfectly. The Best Buy sale price made the phone a bargain compared to the regular Key2 and other high-end phones.

    - visual voicemail doesn't work with Verizon - missing ALT and Shift keys on right side of keyboard. - power button between volume down and convenience key and takes some time to locate by touch - not as powerful as Key2 - No capacitive keyboard - No toolset / mouse controller - few case options - camera not great + physical keyboard + light weight + (mostly) works with verizon

    This phone has all the security of an Android coupled with BB's own security features. The physics; keyboard is as good as ever, some of the keying takes getting used to but I can use it with large hands. The virtual keyboards arriver the towpath features, better than anything I have used. The auto-suggest when texting is also very sophisticated, and seems to offer more nuanced options that are tied to the dialogue better. Plenty of screen space for all I do.

    I hate smartphones, so I was really excited to find that BlackBerry's were still being sold. I love the qwerty keyboard for my male fingers to type. And because I'm in IT, I know that the blackberry operating systems is one of the safest around.

    I absolute love how versatile my BlackBerry is! I can type with the keyboard or swipe on the screen if I want. This phone's battery life is amazing and I like that I can go a whole without worrying about the charge. The camera resolution could be better but this is the only minus I can think of so far.

    I was using an iPhone X and I pretty much took a downgrade to the BlackBerry Key 2 LE. However, I love a hardware keyboard and I've always been a fan of BlackBerry so the switch was worth it.

    I got the Champagne and absolutely love the gold color. And it's easy to mistake it for metal and love the light weight of it compared to the Key2 and battery is still good too and holds a days worth just fine. And loved the price I got too so that made it even better. Would highly recommend to any BlackBerry fan or anyone else looking for a different phone.

    Great Android Phone with protection and keyboard

    My previous phone was a Blackberry Q5 - have been looking for a replacement for a while but do not like the digital (touch screen) keyboards of the other brands (Apple, Samsung LG etc). Previous versions of the BB Key 1 & 2 were very pricey however the price of LE version fell within the range of what I was willing to pay for a PHONE. I have had the phone for close to 1 month and am quite impressed with its performance. Backed with Blackberry's strong protection it is a solid phone for all users. I much prefer the user interface of this unit compared to the Samsung. Well worth considering before you spend on other brands.

    It's been 5 years since I got my BlackBerry Z10 and I'm glad I waited for this Verizon-compatible phone. It's my first BlackBerry with a physical keyboard and it's very user friendly. But there's also a touchscreen keyboard, as well! Both have the great swipe up word predictions that BlackBerry does so well. The Key2 LE has all the BlackBerry Productivity Apps and this was the only Verizon-compatible Android phone that could transfer all my BlackBerry Calendar, Notes, Passwords, Contacts and etc. natively. The phone feels solid and well built. There is a learning curve but it's more familiar than not. I'm very pleased with the purchase.

    It is so much easier to text with the physical keyboard. This phone would be great for people who like to work on their phone. Lots of customizable shortcuts. It's nice that there is a touchscreen keyboard too. Seems to be more emojis if you are into using those. The battery life seems to be better than my previous phone. I like that it's an android operating system and the expandable memory goes up to 128gb. Kind of with there was a separate row for numbers instead of hitting the alternate key (like the shift button but for special characters). I also wish they had a home button on the keyboard too (next to or below the spacebar would be optimal) The camera quality is OK if not zoomed in, but that seems to be the case with any phone camera I have had. I don't go any lower than 12 megapixels.

    Such a great phone w the best qwerty keyboard Blackberry/TCL/Alcatel has ever made. Smooth operation, great visuals, Blackberry HUB A++++ There is no getting away from the mixed us of the keyboard AND the virtual keys that pop up on the screen for more complex docs and emails. A++++

    Got this for my mom for Xmas gift and she loves it. Saw a lot of reviews and a lot of people asked will this work on Verizon. The answer is yes it does with no problem. You will need to call them for set up. Not the customer service department cause they don’t even know there company sells black berry let alone supply service. You will need to talk to there technical support team and they will have it up and running in a few minutes. Verizon does sell this phone but only for there business accounts. Bestbuy had a really good deal on the phone. If you with AT&T you will get an even better price. Even know the phone was not for me the only thing I can say negative is the keyboard is really small.

    I have been with blackberry since 2014 and have been loyal since. I was so happy when I switch over to the PRIV with the android os... best decision ever made. Now this phone is the best of both worlds... keyboard of the Q10 bigger screen of the PRIV and of course the android os. This phone overall build is awesome! I do miss the swipe up feature of the PRIV keyboard, but with all the shortcuts this one provides... I'm good. The low speakers get to me some, but it's not that deep for me

    This phone is great for those who miss having a physical keyboard, but still want to have the luxury of being able to touch the screen to navigate through the phone. It's very user friendly. I personally feel like the internal memory is great because I haven't even used 64GB on my old phone and I was really big on taking pictures (plus you can always add more storage memory if needed). The picture quality when using the camera is decent too! I hope this phone or style of phone never goes away. We need more options in stores other than just full touch screen smart phones available to purchase. Thanks BlackBerry!
