BlackBerry's iconic keyboard patent has expired (mobilesyrup.com)

I had two BlackBerry devices for work, right about the time they were going away. I'd heard the keyboard was good on earlier models but it seemed like the quality had gotten pretty cheap on the later phones. The BlackBerry 10 OS on my last phone was actually pretty good, and probably would've kept them in the market if they'd launched it 5 years earlier.

Haptic feedback maxed out plus the tap sounds with the volume turned up to 100% is the way to go.
