What’s good: The DTEK50’s best selling point is its price. At $429, this is a mid-range phone the company is selling as a fleet device for businesses, but it could also help increase BlackBerry’s market share in emerging markets, where the company is still a sought-after brand. The phone is named after an app that premiered on last year’s higher-end Priv phone. That app looks at your phone’s security and privacy features and lets you know how to improve them. It checks and confirms privileges to various apps well, but that is basically preventative maintenance and many other apps do similar things. The password keeper can be handy, but there are also third-party offerings for that. BlackBerry is basically trying to expand on its security reputation, but that’s hard to turn into a product. The company is calling this the world’s most secure Android phone, which is a bold claim that even they had to back down from a bit — as it is as secure as their previous phone, the higher end Priv — and still less secure than the company’s BB10-based phones.

Beyond the security, this is a decent, all-around phone that runs well, without a lot of bells and whistles. I appreciate the move to Android, so people can get popular apps. Design-wise, it feels good to hold and is the thinnest phone the company has ever put out.

What’s bad: The power button’s location on the upper left side is confusing when compared to other phones. There is also a round button on right side, a programmable convenience key, that you can assign some functions too, and turning the power on is an available option here. The screen doesn’t really compete with the Samsungs and iPhones of the world, but at this price you shouldn’t expect it too. There isn’t a finger print scanner. The camera is not great in lowlight situations.

What’s interesting: It’s probably wishful thinking that the Finnish people resort to the same sort of hand-wringing over the failures of Nokia that Canadians have when it comes to BlackBerry, but ... what makes something a BlackBerry now? It is the physical keyboard? Is it BB10? Is it BBM? This phone has access to the last one, but at this point, the company’s hardware division admits to mostly being about software and design. As such, the DTEK50 is what is referred to as a “re-badged” phone, meaning it is built on a reference design from an Alcatel phone. BlackBerry execs have said that the company made some changes, like making it easier to grip and adding the convenience key, but is that enough to distinguish it?

The bottom line: The problem with BlackBerry trying to sell a device on its security is that really the company is trying to sell the promise of bad things not happening. The other problem: most people are either unaware of or don’t really care about their security, even if they should. The DTEK50 is a solid phone at a good price, but is not spectacular in any way. BlackBerry says is has another two phones in the pipeline, including another one based on a physical keyboard. Here’s hoping this phone does well enough to secure the possibility of seeing those ones released.

Your thought on this.
