Ouloulou, the BlackBerry KEYONE has finally arrived at the editorial office. Equipped with a touch screen and a physical keyboard, this smartphone amazed me. Here are my impressions, after my first grip!
I hoped, I finally got it: The BlackBerry KEYONE, this device that I discovered in preview at the MWC 2017, finally arrived at the editorial office. While its French release is fast approaching , I will finally test this smartphone which is equipped with a touch screen and a physical keyboard! This is the first smartphone produced by TCL Communication and distributed as the BlackBerry. And even if it now has some Chinese blood, the KEYONE retains the DNA of BlackBerry phones : a modern and pleasant aesthetics and a choice of premium materials. In fact, just the KEYONE packaging can make you as many effects as a new Kendrick Lamar clip!
The BlackBerry / TCL Communication KEYONE is not just a smartphone. Featuring an anodized aluminum frame and a textured shell that is very pleasant to the touch, the flagship that comes with Android 7.1 is good to take in hand . And thanks to the polycarbonate found on its back, this device will not slip between your fingers and to finish, its rounded edges on the slices are really beautiful. But between the presentation of the product and its arrival at the editorial office, it was probably the KEYONE screen that impressed me most. Equipped with a Corning Gorilla Glass 4 glass to limit breakage and scratches, BlackBerry’s baby screen and TCL Communication throws . And even if it is only 4.5 inches,
Thanks to the KEYone’s Smart Keyboard features , you can almost do everything with one hand. Personally, I was able to scroll through the menus oklm, tickling the screen from right to left or pressing a long key to launch an app. Yeah, it’s an egg thing, I’ll give it to you. You can send a message, launch Youtube or another action, by simply clicking on one of the letters chosen as a shortcut key at the beginning. Accustomed to using an iPhone 7 and a Huawei P10, I easily adapted to this KEYONE . Since the keyboard of the KEYONE allows to do almost everything, the navigation buttons seemed to me limit almost useless.

IPhone 7: 6 months with the headed smartphone, our complete test!

It’s been 6 months since the iPhone 7 joined the stalls. Meanwhile, the smartphone headed in its 256 GB version has gone through all the steps of a full test to the editorial and here is our verdict!
In September 2016, Apple surprised many people by presenting its iPhone 7 and 7 Plus. The reason is simple: the new headed smartphones are devoid of jack. For my part, I was a bit ashamed when unpacking the iPhone 7, almost 6 months ago. Nothing but the packaging of Apple’s latest “jewel” had given me as much chills as a new album of my favorite rapper. Aesthetically, the iPhone 7 looks like two drops of water to the iPhone 6s. The only novelty described as “courageous” by the Apple (and scandalous by half of my friends) is the abandonment therefore , of the port jack. Apple has nevertheless managed to “calm” the anger of the “anti” Since its iPhone 7, delivered with a small adapter that can be plugged into the lightning jack to listen to music “old-fashioned”, propelled it into the forefront of smartphone sellers at the end of the year . But is the iPhone 7 really the king of smartphones?
As you will see further, the iPhone 7 is a revolution without actually being. Its design that seems identical to that of the iPhone 6s is not as commonplace as that. The Apple smartphone is waterproof, IP67 certified! Basically , it can be dipped up to 1 meter deep for up to 30 minutes. This little novelty has saved my iPhone 7, several times, a certain death. But good for the iPhone 7 is waterproof, Apple still had to change the home button that is now no longer mechanical. Yeah it’s a bit rough at first but, we get used to it quickly. Personally, what I really liked with this iPhone is, no doubt the camera. For the first time, The Cupertino firm has equipped its basic iPhone with an optical stabilizer . And the result is very fast, in the photos. On the performance side, Apple once again set the bar very high.
The Apple that is about to inaugurate the Apple Park, the last great project of Steve Jobs , made me dream with this iPhone. Equipped with the A10 Fusion chip that is designed by Apple, the iPhone 7 is a true Formula 1. This is Flash version smartphone . Moving from one application to another is a real pleasure, never seems to be behind what has just been asked. Helped by iOS 10, the iPhone 7 is one of the most responsive smartphones I’ve tested! The other fun of this smartphone are the applications and shopping sites. Whether you’re looking for a pair of sneakers on the SNS site or a shell on the Amazon app or the Fnac app, it’s the perfect smartphone to heat the CB from its bed.
Anyway, i’m in love. The screen, speed and design of this iPhone are still as effective but I can also reproach him. The iPhone 7 is very harmful to the blue card, at the time of purchase. And autonomy side, it is always an iPhone that has trouble to overcome the day. But the only question that must be asked is, if we can afford it, would we then turn to the iPhone or the very rich offer Android? We particularly like the waterproof smartphones of the competition. If so, it’s very cool to play “Super Mario Run” in his bath. But if I had to release a final argument to help you decide, I would say that the iPhone 7 is also the most cold-resistant smartphone .

Emu, you still remember. You see the moment, you see it again, you do not get tired of it. Because you immediately felt the crazy potential of the character.
The first impression counts enormously. Good and bad. It sets the tone and it’s hard to change it afterwards. It is the same in life, for you and me, as for the imaginary characters of TV series. In a few seconds, we feel something and we catch it or not. With these characters, you have necessarily said that the sequel would be crazy . What beginnings!
Michonne in “The Walking Dead”
Comic fans could not wait for his arrival. Arrived at the end of season 2, finally, here it is … Under a hood, with a saber stained with blood and two penguin zombies kept on a leash as vulgar slaves. A plan of pork. And then, you wanted direct attack season 3. See again Michonne.
Tywin Lannister in “Game of Thrones”
We do not see much, but every time, it produces something. And from the very first scene where we see it, we understand. While Jaime was thought to be at the top in terms of power, charisma, he seems quite timid when he introduces his father . To deal with removing the skin of a deer, speaking calmly of war and responsibilities. Without even looking at his son, he lectures him and makes him tremble.
Frank Underwood in “House of cards”
The neighbors’ dog gets hit and suffers on the sidewalk. He approaches it, warns people, you feel he is all nice, touched. Then Frank finishes the dog. You think he just wanted to shorten his suffering, then you see his impassive face and you hear him explain that he has “no patience for useless things . ” So, you just realized that the guy was merciless, not a bar.
Will McAvoy in “The Newsroom”
A flagship broadcaster of a show, he leads a debate in which he seems outdated. He seems to have given up. People are incensed, remain calm. Even absent. One understands that it adapted to the environment, that maneuver tranquillou. He no longer takes risks, no longer pushes people to their last limits, no longer seeks confrontation. But this is not all: he knows how to make himself loved . After a question, Will McAvoy launches into a long tirade showing up and down across why the United States is the largest country that exists. And it dries everyone.
Dexter Morgan in “Dexter”
It is discovered in full spinning, following a Mike Donovan, pastor of his state. A man loved and respected. Then we see Dexter, this time in the back seat of the pastor, and he tightens his throat with a thread. Ah yeah, okay, pretty cash like intro. And it’s not over: Dexter takes the pastor where a grave awaits him . Already filled with the children he killed and raped. And boom, Dexter stumbles. We begin to understand the killer, our positioning rocking, we begin to cogitate. Which of these characters did you most notice the first time you saw him?
