LONDON – The moment when you have little to lose, not to say anything, is one in which you can really begin to dare. With the BlackBerry Passport Canadian home does so with a design he wants at all costs to stand out from the mass of smartphone ever approved, and with a diagonal increasingly consistent. With the sword of Damocles of IDC forecasts that they want in free fall from 0.8% of the market in 2014 to 0.3% in 2018, starting from 1.3 in 2013, the company’s Waterloo tries to tempt the ‘users in a suit and tie, the one that uses the smartphone for 50% of the time for labor issues, with a touch-screen 4.5-inch with HD resolution 1440×1400. Square. Overall, the object is similar to a passport, as the name suggests, pace of the purists of the management with one hand. If you browse to use both, the format is not so uncomfortable, while 196 grams of weight are felt. There is earned in the display of content, from strips of text: 60 characters compared to 29 and 33 rivals Samsung and Apple.

Keyboard and battery

The second challenge is that of the keyboard: the Passport combines a QWERTY touch screen capable of reacting to the passage of the fingertip to scroll through the pages, select the numeric keys on the display or highlight a area to be enlarged and which then act to make changes. Aggressive by 3450 mAh battery, which should provide more than 30 hours of use. To complete the data sheet the quad-core processor Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 2.2 GHz, NFC sensor, 3 GB RAM, 32 GB of memory and two cameras from 13:02 megapixels. Canadians have also worked on audio and deploy enhanced speakers and a system of four microphones can, they say, to ensure a more defined sound of 18% compared to the HTC One M8 and as much as 350% compared to that of the Samsung Galaxy S5.

The relationship with Amazon

Bringing in the dowry ‘ update of the BlackBerry OS 10.3, Passport also marks the debut of the company in the field of virtual assistants already manned by Syrians, Cortana and Google Now. This item, also queried in writing, is especially designed to help professionals to navigate through appointments in the calendar and content. Not only that, the butler in black voice is also capable of doing research within individual portals, such as Amazon. Which brings us to the increasingly close relationship with the group in Seattle. If, on the one hand, the former Rim makes no secret of wanting to devote body and soul business users on the other hand continues to tease even a larger proportion with the integration of the application store Amazon. Small icons, therefore, Android to fulfill virtually all operations. As explained during the presentation today, we think that 40% of BlackBerry users are accustomed to shoot with two smartphones but it is possible that Passport will become the only display connected walking. There are, however, app more “technical”. An example is Nil, developed by the Canadian company Claron Technology Italian Claudio Gatti and adopted by hospitals and healthcare facilities – obviously not only on BlackBerry – for access to data, reports and x-rays of patients without having to download any program.



Since October, 600 euro

Coming back to those who pass from one device to another, is thrown into the mix too Blend. Already installed on the new Passport is the connecting link between the multiplicity of technological objects today and the final transition to the cloud that awaits us: allows you to remotely access your smartphone and tablet computer with competing operating systems on which you have to download the ‘ app (from this address). You can access documents, move, edit, start actions on a device and on the completion thereof or use the free business protected BlackBerry to navigate with the other device. Simplifying a lot, it is no longer a problem if you forget your smartphone at home. And, as the producer wishes to emphasize, the security offered by BlackBerry, which nevertheless continues to have the authorship of content accessible from other workstations, goes beyond the device that bears his mark. In Italy
BlackBerry Passport will be available from October in a card between 600 and 700 euro.
