For fans of the old Blackberry devices, wanting a physical keyboard, times aren’t looking good. When it comes to BlackBerry Keyone deals, we are now seeing the number of others available drop down.
But that doesn’t mean they’re not available anymore. Just expect to pay slightly more for the privilege of a full physical keyboard and don’t be surprised if it reaches the point where this phone is only available SIM-free.
But despite the phone slowly disappearing, this is still an excellent phone and if you can find an affordable Blackberry Keyone deal it will treat those with a love of nostalgia well.
Equipped with an updated version of that keyboard, Full HD screen and 12MP main camera, the Blackberry KEYone runs off Android. It may not quite be a match for the likes of the Samsung Galaxy Note 9, but it’s not far off and it’s way cheaper.

It looks and feels like it’s meant for business.
Exiled BlackBerry users who have felt forced to trade their physical keyboards for on-screen keyboards will undoubtedly rejoice.
