Would anyone like to buy my Blackberry?

I am reluctant, but I have to sell this lovely phone.

It's a 32GB, fully-unlocked Blackberry Passport running the latest OS. It's still in support and receiving updates.

The sale includes a PDAir black leather folding case which is included in the price -- one of these:

It is used but in excellent condition and fully working. I have used both Tesco Mobile CZ and UK EE micro SIM cards and both worked perfectly.

The keyboard is also a trackpad and can be used to scroll and select text. The screen is square and hi-resolution -- the best I have ever used on a smartphone.

It runs the latest Blackberry 10 OS, which has the best email client on any pocket device. It can also run some Android apps and includes the Amazon app store. I side-loaded the Google Play store but not all apps for standard Android work. I am happy to help you load this if you want.

It is 100% usable without a Google, Apple or Microsoft account, if you are concerned about privacy issues.

It supports Blackberry Messenger, obviously, and has native clients for Twitter and other social networks -- I used Skype, Reddit, Foursquare and Untappd, among others. I also ran Android clients for Runkeeper, Last.FM and several other services. Facebook, Google+ and others are usable via their web interfaces.

I will do a full factory reset before handing it over.

It has a microSD slot for additional storage if you need it.

It is about a year old and has been used, so the battery is not good as new, but it still lasts much longer than the Android phablet that replaced it!

You can see it and try it before purchase if you wish.

Reason for sale: I needed more apps. :-( I do not speak Czech and I need Google Translate and Google Maps almost every day.

Note: no mains adaptor included but it charges over micro-USB, so any charger will work, although it complains about other phone brand's chargers -- but they still work.

IKEA sell a cheap multiport one:

I am hoping for CzK 10000 but I am willing to negotiate.
