Short Review

  • The BlackBerry Porsche Design P'9981 features a premium build with a distinctive design, combining stainless steel and leather for an upscale feel.
  • Its 2.8-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 640 x 480 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 286 ppi, which is adequate for basic tasks but lacks vibrancy.
  • Performance is powered by a Qualcomm MSM8655 Snapdragon S2 chipset with a 1.2 GHz CPU and Adreno 205 GPU, complemented by 768MB of RAM, which may struggle with multitasking.
  • The rear camera is 5 MP with autofocus, capable of recording 720p video, while the front lacks a selfie camera.
  • Battery capacity stands at 1230mAh, providing limited longevity without fast or wireless charging options.
  • Running on BlackBerry OS 7.0, the software experience is tailored for productivity but may feel outdated compared to modern platforms.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 2.1, and NFC, though it does not support 5G.
  • The device weighs 155g and has dimensions of 115 x 67 x 11.3 mm, making it relatively compact.
  • The headphone jack is included, but stereo speakers are absent.
  • Overall, the P'9981 is a niche device that emphasizes luxury design over cutting-edge technology.
