<p><br />] freddysrevng<br />Chicago, IL 12 February 2014<br /><br />BlackBerry has about 0 market share, but has the "Best Rated/Most Recommended" smartphone, based on actual owners, on Verizon with the BlackBerry Z30 and Apple and Android continue to gobble up market share with their inferior offerings....<br /><br />Goes to show how easy it is to manipulate the low information consumers of this and other countries....<br /><br />Check out Z30 ratings on - take you pick - Verizon, Amazon, Rogers etc.... you might be surprised how much more its owners like it over iPhone and Galaxy owners... interesting stuff.... keep dropping calls on those small screened iPhones...<br /><br />And the "really good news" is that BlackBerry is closing the app gap with the rollout of 10.2.1 .... Netflix, Instagram and the lot are working wonderfully on their new phones...<br /><br /><br />] HeyNorris Paris, France 13 February 2014<br /><br />I don't think it's a question of manipulating "low information consumers". Given BlackBerry's 0.6 percent market share, you're suggesting that 99.4 percent of global smartphone buyers are idiots.<br /><br />Well then, call me an idiot. I prefer to own devices from companies that don't miss the boat at every single turn. I gave up my BlackBerry years ago for an iPhone, not because I hated BlackBerry or was in love with Apple, but because I felt that Apple's OS/app strategy was much more expansive and would allow me to get the most out of my expensive device.<br /><br />If indeed BlackBerry is closing the gap with 10.2.1, they're five years behind iOS and Android which in the tech world is several lifetimes, and THAT is why they have no market share. When I spend a lot of money on a device, I like to know that it won't soon be obsolete because of pathetic management and a spectacular lack of strategy.<br /><br /><br />] Bikerbudmatt Cheshire, CT 13 February 2014<br /><br />Though (as full disclosure) I am not now, nor have I ever been, a Blackberry user, it is worthy to note that RIM's products were rolled out in an era when its business and government users valued stability over innovation. Blackberry's big selling points were relative usability, nearly impenetrable security, and the assurance that IT departments would have time to gain familiarity with software and hardware before it was implemented.<br /><br />The same strategy that made Blackberry indispensable and "it" at the end of the 1990s is now the poisonous cloud that it cannot overcome. Competitors that could not break the Blackberry lock in corporate culture instead have exploited rapid development and release cycles to appeal to business folks who are also consumers. Thus they've gotten the camel's nose, hump, and tail under the edge of the tent.<br /><br />RIM denied this was a factor until it was too late to change. Buh-bye, Blackberry.</p>
