ATRL - Discussion: Can Blackberry make a comeback?

Will_ · , 10:11 AM

Their user base has been dwindling lately and its mostly due to their software that hasn't aged well at all, but if what if they fixed that?

They've already started doing some cool new stuff like this:

Could Blackberry, in the new mobile world of Android and iPhone, make a comeback?

No. RIM is very outdated. Blackberry's functionality is limited to businessmen while Apple and Android enjoys the market of any age bracket. I actually love blackberries. They are so classy but no. They would die a sudden death in the smartphone era.

If they hire an original industrial designer and a creative software developer, then they might.

No. Blackberries are way better than the last 2.

No, they'd have to come up with something amazing for it to happen

BlackBerry will survive because of businessmen. It was never a "creative" device.

Damn

I love blackberrys !! I had a curve, storm and currently I have a bold. Their software sucks though. My phone freezes 2 much. So they really need to focus on that imo.

I love my blackberry

If they abandon their non-professional base for 2 years absolutely. Blackberry should focus on what they do best - service professionals. While they're doing that, have a new team revamp the general consumer lines, reduce the models, focus on 2 major products and then launch with a massive PR campaign using social media.

Nope. RIM is a terrible company and businesses are switching over to iOS/Android exponentially. It's only a matter of time before Blackberry becomes a thing of the past.

Loads of people are making the jump to iPhone. Once people have Apple they ain't turning back.

They seriously need to get an OS that can handle their functionality, cause its clear it can't keep up.
My BB's always freezing up.

Blackberry is overrated in my country, weird cause i think the function mostly related to business & no entertainment but all the people have it.
And it sucks to a non Blackberry user like me, cause everytime my friend only communicate via BBM & BB Group, i was like
