BlackBerry KEYone Review
Review of the BlackBerry KEYone. I tried to be as detailed as possible, so sorry for the long length. I also went through my dislikes as I went through the features, I guess a summary at the end would have been clearer. So I'll add a summary of pros and cons at the end of this description. I'll also post links to the different things I covered in the review so you can jump around to what you're interested in.

.
Pros:
-INSANE battery life
-The best physical keyboard in the market now
-Secured Android with regular security updates
-Android 7.1.1 (Nougat)
-Capacitive smart keyboard
-Keyboard shortcuts
-Quick Charge 3.0
-USB-C
-RGB Notification LED
-8MP front camera and good quality 12MP rear camera
-Soft-touch back provides good grip
-Aluminum body

.
Cons:
-No wireless charging
-Not rated for water-resistance
-No swipe-up shortcuts like other BB Androids
-Would like pointer mode to use with capacitive keyboard
-No play/pause/mute button between volume buttons
-Would like more settings in camera manual mode
-No optical image stabilization (but advanced electronic image stabilization works VERY well, but only available on 1080p@30fps or below)
-Qualcomm 625 CPU isn't the fastest, some have reported lag, but I haven't experienced anything that I'd write about, but then again I don't have a ton of different social media accounts linked to my phone, maybe that's why. So YMMV.
-Mono speaker
-No front LED flash
