#MOTION 5 REVIEW FULL#
In my experience, it can easily keep the Motion going through a full day of heavy use, and most people should be able to get multiple days between charges with it. The company says the 4,000mAh battery inside the phone is the largest cell it has ever used and can last for up to 32 hours on a single charge. The standout feature for the Motion is its battery life. On top of that, the phone’s design is large and clunky, and it’s just not a very comfortable or enjoyable device to use. Though it has a very large battery and is well-built, it uses a two-year-old processor and a completely average and mediocre camera. The $449.99 Motion, which is sold unlocked and works on AT&T or T-Mobile, but not Verizon or Sprint, is not a particularly impressive Android phone. Cover up the BlackBerry logo that adorns the home button / fingerprint sensor and it could be any other generic Android phone.Īnd frankly, that makes it hard to get excited about it.

It is a typical, rectangular touchscreen slab phone, with a 5.5-inch display and a handful of buttons on the side. The new BlackBerry Motion, which was released late last year but just arrived in the US a few weeks ago, does not have a physical keyboard.

Not every BlackBerry phone has one of these keyboards, but the only ones that anyone remembers do. The defining characteristic of BlackBerry smartphones is that they have physical keyboards with lots of little buttons that you can peck at with your fingers to write a message, compose an email, or perform a Google search.
