Blackberry smartphones used to be all the rage, yup I don’t get old people either. Their not-so-sleek-nowadays feel and that tacky keyboard made the phone a revolution in technology. Sure, the iPhone was released and stole every single customer that blackberry perilously tried to cling onto, you know, that scene from The Lion King, come on don’t you have Disney+? This is the 21st century, people, streaming is all the rage!

In modern times Blackberry smartphones just aren’t acceptable for a top-class citizen like you and of course myself. However, back in the day, you know, the late nights hanging with your buddy from college, or maybe you weren’t born yet, join the club. Anyway, on the the-interested-about-the-subject side of the story and not the the-bad-pun-six-week-free-online-course side of the story Blackberrys were almost a status symbol, you know, like how Apple products are now.

Apple User: “Oh I just love the new iPhone, the specs are soo good!”

Android User: “Oh shut up, you just bought it because of the branding.”

Apple User: “Yeah you’re right, I just love Jonathon Ive and Steve Jobs and everybody so much!”

And oh yeah, Apple users please still clap for this article, I mean no harm, sort of.
