There are social media native BlackBerry apps like facebook, twitter, foursquare, linkedin, etc and you can import others from android via amazon maket, or by downloading .apk apps and install them into you phone.
If you father is a hardcore social media and multimedia type of person, you better buy him an android instead of BlackBerry!

ifti, 31 Oct 2015why internet cost too much high in black berryBecause security costs and BlackBerry services are not for kids who plays Candy Crush or Angry Birds.
BIS, BES, BBM and BlackBerry e-Mail Client are using exclusively BlackBerry servers and an encrypted connections. That is why BlackBerry is banned by secret services in some countries - Using only BlackBerry servers, they don't have any control on it.
Anyway, BB10 OS is running with basic APN internet, like any other phone. You dont't need APN BlackBerry to access the internet.

am using the blackberry classic for 5 month, its very good, i advise, major apps are available on blackberry world, for other apps you can use amazon store, its not that fast compared to iphone, but its stable, doesnt hang compared to BB OS 7
so if you are not a gamer, you should buy this device, why to pay more for iphone or samsung?

Blackberry world is suffering from lack of essential apps...
If we install android apps, then it will lag too much. Because android apps are designed for android phones. Android apps are not developed for blackberry 10 phones..
Some android apps won't work without google play services app.
Missing essential apps like: ola cabs, axis bank, uber, shareit!, Viber, GOOGLE MAPS, HDFC bank, Tata sky etc..

I bought the Classic (via Amazon) when it first launched, but returned it. At the time, I didn't feel like I was getting enough out of it to justify its hefty (for me) price tag. Now, here I am, many months later - and I rebought the phone. This time, VERY slightly used, from Amazon for $260. I'm keeping it and I'm beyond happy. Why?
Because I use my phone, first and foremost, as a PHONE and a communication device. There is simply no other phone that handles calls, messages, and emails quite like this one. The Passport is too big/oddly shaped for me (I'm a woman with average-sized hands), so the Classic was my choice. I do basic social networking. I do not need a bunch of apps on my phone I'll never use - and if I want to watch movies, I have a TV and a computer. The camera is serviceable. I have installed a functioning Google Play Store on the Classic using instructions found online at Blackberry's most popular fan site. Honestly, with the Play Store added, I am not missing any apps I'd really like, except for a standalone FB Messenger. That being said, FB messenger is already integrated well into the Hub. The only thing missing is the ability to use stickers.
The build quality on this phone is nothing short of amazing. Once you acclimate yourself to its gestures, BB10 is a superb OS for navigating around. If you want a phone to play games, stream music/watch movies, this is NOT the phone for you. If, OTOH, you juggle several email addresses, social networking, texts, etc. and want a very efficient way to manage them, give the BlackBerry Classic a try.

The Classic brings perfect design, but the cpu is far too slow.
Terrible experience when making a search.
Dual core was a dumb choice. No excuse.

It can feel "clunky" which I can say the same for the iPhone safari browser, it is not smooth feeling like the Android GS6 browser. That being said, the Blackberry browser is incredibly powerful and can handle everything. With me I use MANY browser tabs at a time. I find that Safari and Chrome cant handle as many tabs and either crash or refresh the browser and the tabs. I find that the Blackberry browser handles multiple tabs fairly well! Another cool thing, something somewhat basic, but yet not an option for many, is YouTube on the browser. You can load youtube, play video on the browser, say you are working out, you load a music video and you just want to hear the song, you lock your phone, video continues to play on youtube in the background, no extra apps needed, plus downloading videos is just as simple as it is on Chrome on Android
