Blackberry users said goodbye to the iconic device on January 4, 2022. The phone's legacy software was decommissioned, meaning all classic Blackberry phones can no longer be used. The Blackberry, at its peak, was a favorite of top execs, but was phased out in favor of touchscreen smartphones.
BlackBerry was staging another comeback with its first-ever 5G phone slated to launch in 2022 after missing out on the mid-2021 promise. Unfortunately, the promised 5G BlackBerry phone is not coming after all.
Although some prepaid wireless carriers sell BlackBerry phones, you can save money by unlocking your BlackBerry to use with their service instead of buying a new BlackBerry. All you need to make your BlackBerry a prepaid phone after you unlock it is the prepaid SIM card from the wireless carrier.
In her spare time, she watches soccer games, F1 races and Disney movies. BlackBerry fans won't get a 5G phone after all. The delayed 5G BlackBerry phone is dead, OnwardMobility has confirmed on its website.
Phones and tablets running BlackBerry OS, BlackBerry 10 and BlackBerry PlayBook OS are all affected, following an announcement which the company first made back in September 2020.
Are BlackBerry phones gonna stop working?
BlackBerry's classic cellphone retires today, the company reminded users Tuesday in a statement. BlackBerry first announced in 2020 that it would decommission its legacy software beginning Jan. 4, meaning classic BlackBerry devices would no longer function beyond that date.
In early 2020, TCL announced that it would no longer manufacture new BlackBerry phones, though said that it would continue to provide support (including customer service and warranties) for existing phones until 31 August 2022, while support for BlackBerry OS, BlackBerry 10 and BlackBerry PlayBook OS ended on 4 January ...
In light of legacy BlackBerry devices officially losing software support on 4 January 2022, attentions quickly turned back to OnwardMobility and the apparent radio silence the startup had slipped into after mid-2021, leaving fans completely in the dark about the progress of its debut device and when to expect it.
TCL's BlackBerry license expired at the beginning of 2020, with the BlackBerry Key2 LE being its final phone, which came six months after the Key2. It had 18 months to sort an update out for the Key2, and that's plenty of time.
BlackBerry KeyOne, Key2, Key2 LE, and Motioowners will be affected by these changes. BlackBerry has quietly revealed that its most prominent Android apps will no longer be supported. Apps like DTEK, Privacy Shade, and the Launcher will reach end-of-life status on August 31.
However, both the Blackberry Keyone and Key2 support 4G connectivity and so they should work on the 5G network come February 2022. 🤦🏼♀️. Again neither phone has the hardware for 5G. Both are older phones and neither have voice over LTE capability or AT&T HD voice service.
