2-Minute Review

Let's cut through the noise, and get to the crux of it. 11+ Expert Reviews analysed and summarised by the PhoneCurry Editorial Team, in a short and sweet 2-minute review.

Design

  • Elegant, classy glass and metal design with high quality finish - well suited as an office device
  • Feels great in the hand
  • The BlackBerry on-screen keyboard is fast and accurate
  • No water resistance, unlike some other flagships
  • Back glass scratches easily (so using a case is highly recommended)

Display

  • Vibrant, crisp display

Software

  • Nearly pure Android experience, with the added Productivity Tab & BlackBerry Hub to give you quick access to your calendar, unread messages, tasks, and favorite contacts - serving as an important element of efficiency on the DTEK60
  • Additionally security features like the DTEK app, and fast monthly security updates - arguably making it the most secure Android phone right now

Performance

  • Smooth, reliable performance

Camera

  • Good camera (though not quite up to the level of top Android cameras like the Google Pixel or Galaxy S7, especially with low light photos)

Audio

  • Very good dual stereo speakers - louder and clearer than most other flagships

Battery

  • Decent battery life - lasts the day with moderate use
  • Support for Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0 fast charging technology

More

  • Full enterprise mobility management support
  • On the whole, while security is its forte, and that might be valued by some users, it falls behind other flagship devices in many things which are more relevant to a general smartphone user
