No, seriously. He does. As announced on his Twitter account, BlackBerry CEO John Chen will be picking a 'BlackBerry Fan of the Month' on the 1st of every month, and the only thing you need to do to win is tweet him with how BlackBerry helps you every day. In fact, he's already awarded the winner for this month with a brand new BlackBerry Passport.
1/4 I'll be picking a #BBFOTM [@BlackBerry Fan Of The Month] on the 1st of each month
— John Chen (@JohnChen) May 1, 2016

4/4 .@DanMac2014 my office will be in touch to send you a BlackBerry Passport. Enjoy

That's a pretty cool initiative from John Chen and BlackBerry. The BlackBerry Fan of the Month was a thing previously, so it's nice to see it being revived by the company in such an awesome way. In any case, be sure to follow @JohnChen on Twitter and let him know how BlackBerry helps you.

Shame she will now be able to video chat via bbm with everyone that has an android phone or an iphone but not with me because I am the only one in the family that still is clinging to his BlackBerry.

Posted via CB10
How many fans do you think are left?
Posted via CB10
So that is his idea for the hardware segment? He should try it instead with stop trash talking the hardware segment and launching that Hamburg and Rome phones asap and globally without this AT&T exclusivety BS. And maybe he should try it this time with reality regarding the pricing and stop demanding a premium price for a brand that has no premium image anymore. So John Chen start working on the real things instead of reading Twitter tweets to pick a daily winner

My wife and I both won Q10s the summer after the BB10 launch. Glad to see BlackBerry engaging their fan base again. Doubt it'll change much, but still very much appreciated.

WaterTower, other advertising avenues might actually inform the world that BB still exists. This one merely gives out free devices to the few that might actually buy one themselves.
It might be a bad thing because it might convince Chen that he is "marketing" so he won't spend any money on real marketing.
Everyone gives Chen grief, but how many Samsung, LG, HTC, or even Sony phone uses know the names of the ceo of the phone manufacturer. Not sure if it's a good or bad thing
Posted via the CrackBerry App for Android
It's a bad thing lol. When stuff starts getting messed up, everyone wants to know who's responsible... For example, without using a search engine, how many people can name the former commissioner of the NFL?? Almost everyone knows Roger Goodell.
Posted via CB10
I never seen like that .thanks mr chen
At least give away one per week or something. One device per month is not worth invoking the name of the venerable CEO. How about the CEO of Nike picks a winner each month and gives out a pair of Nike shoes? Never would happen.
This is smart. Makes sure your fans are being kept close, and one phones a month is peanuts compared to other advertising avenues. Nicely done John.

Lol, don't have a twitter account but will shortly and will be loading some sort of Twitter app. I feel this is a positive movement forward and a solid showing by Chen. Let's face it, it has been rather gloomy around here. By the way as far as that's concerned, I find it rather ironic that the first device CHOSEN in his monthly giveaway. Especially with EOL remarks.
Guess BB10 is dead, right? If anything this may work in BB10'S favor. That is if most of the winners choose those devices.

It's a great idea and we should be excited at such appreciation of BlackBerry' excellent fan base. But I do think he should be giving away Priv's. I like my passport, but it's not the future on bb10 as much as I wish it were. Giving away Priv's would generate more enthusiasm . Giving away Passports is a bit like giving away your old phone... still great, but could be better.
Posted via CB10
In don't think you get it. He likes BB10. The Priv and this so called BlackBerry Android OS failed. If Android wasn't so old, maybe they could have made it look and feel like BB10. But ATM, I don't see that happening unless Google scraps that OS. Who Knows.
Passport runs circles over Priv.
Rocking a Z30
I would like to think that too. But seriously, bb10 is dead unless someone revives it, and it's not likely to be Chen.

EOL is an overstatement.
If someone wants a new blackberry, they win one FREE, and they manage to keep it in good shape for years, what does EOL really have to do with it?
Some people still use flip-phones, just sayin'
Posted via the mighty White Passport
That guy Won a 2G only Passport so he's kinda bummed.
Do you still use a flip phone? Would you? None of the most popular apps will be supported by the end of the year. If you don't think the OS at very least is dead, you don't have a firm grip one current affairs. It may work for the people who don't use facebook, whatsapp and instagram etc. But those people really are in the minority. Whether they want to admit it or not, BB10 has been on life suport for a very long time and now certain parts are being actively switched off. So, yeah, I stand by my comment of EOL.
Prove me wrong and I will happily accept it. I love the OS but it doesn't change facts.

Support bb10 devs, IGrann Pro, Face 10, Messenger 10 are great 3rd party apps.

My Sony walkman is EOL, but somehow the cassette tapes still play
My Panasonic Plasma is EOL, it will never be built again, but yet it still is the gold standard for HDTV, and I love watching it every night.
Weird, even if my passport is EOL, I will be buying another SE to ensure that I can still use it for years to come if I choose.
Sure I use snap, but I don't have any issues with snap and android apps playing on it
Even better, I have 2 distinct dropbox accounts that I can open on my passport thanks to the ART
Can a android device have 2 distinct dropbox accounts open at the same time?

Literally the worst examples ever. Not even comparable to a smart phone/OS scenario.

I knew my panasonic tv was EOL when I bought it. I scrambled to get it. I don't care that the Smart part of the tv is no where near that of new models.
If I was able to get a free panny plasma instead of buying, I would have snatched it real quick. It still represents their brand. Panny not dead as a brand, neither is BlackBerry

what do you mean "most popular apps".
You act like Facebook and Whatsapp is the meaning of life! LOL. Just use the Android versions via snap.
Lol or just don't use those idiotic sites/ apps regardless of the os you use. Freaking zombies all around me on Facebook and snapchat
Posted with my shiny new Priv
Somehow, I've been able to survive without ever having a Facebook account. My Passport is a phone and a business machine. Some may have or find legit reasons for facebook (a stretch), however the extreme invasion of PRIVacy, has never been attractive to me.
I mean the most popular apps. I love how when someone presents you with an opinion that isn't that of a fanboy, everyone loses their mind. They may not be the most important apps to you or me, but to deny that the majority of people, especially the younger generation, rely on them, is just crazy. Ignoring this is what put blackberry in this position in the first place. The app ecosystem almost single handedly spelt doom for the OS from launch.
вιaсĸвεггч® Passport SE SQW100-4 running 10.3.2.2876
You haven't presented Facts, just Opinion and Conjecture. Nothing More.
Rocking a Z30
You think the OS Is thriving? That definitely isn't a fact. I it isn't conjecture to say that it is being abandoned by its own makers in order to move over to Android. Any new BB10 phones coming out this year? No, they have stated that only android phones will be coming out. Any major OS updates coming? No, only security patches etc.
These are just two facts with zero conjecture involved.
вιaсĸвεггч® Passport SE SQW100-4 running 10.3.2.2876
If you think the OS dies when 3rd party app drops support then you don't have a firm grip on reality. Navigate to the preloaded Amazon appstore & install the Android app which Android themselves don't even own... Which other 'ALIVE' mobile OS has this capability? Hmmm
I think the point of this is extremely low priced advertisement.
@dtuivs....$2000 and tax credits,haha..I think he wants feedback about dropping BB10,maybe some soul searching going on ?
Fully agree with you, but I just question the merits of only now starting to do things like this. The timing is atrocious IMHO.
вιaсĸвεггч® Passport SE SQW100-4 running 10.3.2.2876
Agree. This should have been done years ago. Not to mention proper marketing. But it's "NEVER TOO LATE". Because if it was so, just like Apple in the past, they too would have gone Bankrupt. Almost the same thing happening to BBRY. Where is Apple today? Despite there garbage overpriced devices.

@raxamillion...maybe because the Priv sold less than BB10 last Q,If legend has it right ,,Bad things come in 3's...better have a new BB10 mixed in, instead of 3 new androids in a row,lol

Ya just realized that after. I guess I thought that cause the picture has him holding two BB10 devices and that's what he gave away but yeah shows that he still has a strong BB10 following and they aren't eager to go android when given the choice eh?
Posted via CB10
I can run my business just fine from a BB10 phone. In the past six years not one of our clients has ever wanted us to use Facebook, WhatsApp or Instagram for anything.
I can honestly say that we would not do a single dollar more in revenue by switching from BB10 to iOS or Android.
Powering through business communications (primarily email), with perfect synchronization with our MS Exchange server for contacts, notes, calendar and tasks is our number one priority, and nothing in our extensive testing has equaled BB10's performance for our core needs. In addition the bundled browser, maps and weather app are up to the task as well.
I'm on the road 200+ days a year. Last year I bought an iPad mini and carried it with me "just in case" I needed some app that didn't run on BB10. I never used the damned thing and finally gave it to my mother-in-law to watch Netflix.
I understand that a lot of consumers love apps and prefer iOS and Android's ecosystem for their personal mobile phones. That's wonderful for them. But we'll continue to use BB10 until some core component, such as the browser, is no longer robust enough for work.
If we thought there was any economic advantage to switching phones, we do it, but there just isn't. For us, it would be a lifestyle choice, which is not a valid criteria for changing over.

Switching from a BB10 platform to either/or Android and iOS would not only NOT make you more money, it will help slow down your productivity. Apps are important for sure. So BUY BB10 phones, help the company increase its BB10 market share where in turn stimulates the app development. And may even slap the Hardware Division to actually MARKET the devices.
Facts are Facts, Android and iOS are "Major" downgrades over BB10. This hard Fact of course can't be argued.
Rocking a Z30
Well I thought the same...about not using WhatsApp for business. That's until a Client insisted on using it. When I refused it add my name to the WA group, he ask for another colleague to handle the project. What a joke, I stated WA is for private use and is a social messaging app. Use Email, fax, call ... but I refuse WA. Unfortunately the office manager backed down and I'm off the job...thank God. Pretty sad day when Client's get their way and the company doesn't back you up.

Believing BB10 is anywhere near EOL is ridiculous. That ain't going to happen. If anything, we will see a major BB10 upgrade or next gen BB10.4+.
Call it what U want. But spreading EOL nonsense isn't going to make it so.
Rocking a Z30
We'll see. But the fact that apps are almost gone from the ecosystem means you need to use another platform just to get some things done. Not really nonsense if you have been following the journey the OS has been on.

*C5303
BB10 is based on QNX which is the foundation of almost all the most complex systems on the planet across all industries, including systems running android & apple ui's.... I need not say anymore...
You may not remember but BlackBerry was outselling every brand without any marketing or incentives paid to salesmen to push the brand like what Samsung does, neither did BlackBerry share the market. Obviously not everybody chose their own device otherwise atleast 50% of consumers would have naturally upgraded to BB10 devices and experienced the most advanced mobile OS in history. If you only knew....
Uhmmm Glass and Aluminum are what the Galaxy line of phones are made of. As far back as S5,Note5. What Galaxy are you talking about??? S3???? LMAO
Just for the record, the last NON BB phone I've owned was a Nokia, just before the Pearl came out

Feel sorry for those who paid +$700
Correct.had the phone beenpriced b/w 300-450 it would've sold like hot cakes
Posted via CB10
I don't think price alone would have sold it. Marketing... Does anyone not know about a new iPhone release? Yet, Apple still does a massive amount of marketing.
But then at $300 - $450 I doubt BlackBerry is making much off these phones. Those prices are a result of a retailer dumping dead inventory, probable at a loss.
But would have helped it someone with brains had designed the displays for the PRIV.
