BlackBerry's newest phone is the Detex 60 the design based off the Alcatel idol 4s has the same lovely five and a half inch 2560 by 1440 pixel AMOLED display but the DTEC 60 has a faster processor more memory and a higher megapixel camera the DTEC 60 is slightly thinner than the idol 4s and the edges are smoother and more rounded some of you might remember the BlackBerry detect 50 billed as the world's most secure Android smartphone the Detex 60 like its little brother makes security and privacy a priority I like the security gauge that shows you how secure your phone is overall but the best feature the battery in our video playback test it lasted a little over 14 hours I also like the fantastic on-screen keyboard and the BlackBerry hub app that allows you to have all your accounts and notifications in one place then there's the camera it's a little bit of a mixed bag it has 21 megapixels and shoots 4k video and good light it focuses well in the images have good detail but the camera lacks optical image stabilization and in low-light images get quite noisy there's also a customizable convenience key to quickly open up apps like the camera but I wish the convenience key functioned when the phone's display is in sleep mode like the Alcatel Idol 4s it would just make things more convenient look this is one of the nicest phones BlackBerry has released in a long time it's filled with useful features and secure software but it misses out on being fun if you're like I'm using a scientific calculator and maybe that's the point maybe this is supposed to be the best work phone because it will ensure you're using it to be productive
