iYogi Reviews: BlackBerry Passport – Small in Size, Different in shape, But Boasts Intelligent Features

Have you ever thought that you can also hold a square like phone in your hand? With BlackBerry Passport, you can actually dream of owning a square-shaped phone in your hand. The BlackBerry Passport can be considered as a pure productivity machine designed by the business oriented mindsets of the company. It comes packed with a very powerful hardware, a slew of clever features, and the BlackBerry OS 10.3. The latest OS from Blackberry can surely be a chase for iOS and Android.
To find out the details of latest production from BlackBerry in the form of a Passport, check out the review by iYogi:

Design and Specifications
The size of the BlackBerry Passport is very much similar to the shape and size of a US passport, which is 4.5 inch. The squat square shape of this latest invention by BlackBerry is surely going to be the attention seeker for many, especially when you’ll be holding it in your hands. Weighing at 6.9 ounces, the phone gives the feather like solid feel. It is 3.5 inches wide, which is surely wider than other phablets like – 5.7 inch Samsung Galaxy Note 3 and the 5.5 inch iPhone 6 Plus.
And, if you are fond of BlackBerry, or you are one of those who find it quite difficult to operate the phone without a physical keyboard, the BlackBerry Passport is the one for you. The QWERTY keyboard incorporated in the Blackberry Passport looks really sharp if we go by its contrast. It holds the capability to give you a premium feel with its sturdy stainless steel frame, which fits very easily into your pockets.
It comes with a gorgeous screen as it has a 1,440x1,440-pixel resolution, with a pixel density of 453 pixels per inch. In simpler words, the latest product line of BlackBerry in the shape of a Passport is highly responsive, texts are crisp and you can get almost everything on the screen without flipping over to a wider landscape. Isn’t that awesome?

Software
The BlackBerry Passport runs BlackBerry OS 10.3, which even lets you run quite a few Android apps too. To get apps on your phone, you will have to refer to the Amazon Appstore, which comes preinstalled. If you are interested in staying with BlackBerry’s ecosystem, you won’t regret it even later. You would never ever give that disappointed look as BlackBerry Email and messaging has always been the BlackBerry’s true asset.

Performance
BlackBerry Passport comes packed with highly powerful hardware – 2.2GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 CPU combined with 3GB of RAM. The Passport’s CPU is very much similar to the one incorporated in the powerful Samsung Galaxy S5. As good things come in small packages, similarly, the Passport from BlackBerry might look small, but it boasts highly advanced features including a good storage space of 32GB and supports up to 128GB MicroSD cards. So, you don’t have to think much before bringing all your phones on your pocket size phone.

Camera
The BlackBerry Passport’s camera is the most surprising element of the entire package. It was hard to believe that it came up with a good quality camera that includes smart autofocus feature that lets you chose until you find the best one. You can switch to Time Shift mode, which captures several shots of faces from which you can get the right one clicked.

Conclusion
The BlackBerry Passport is undoubtedly a good phone, which boasts unlimited quality features. It has come up with brilliant features, sturdy finish and ultimate keyboard that do help in making the process of texting a very light thing. 

The BlackBerry Passport priced at $599.0 is currently available on Amazon.com.
