Hello, you beautiful wonderful human beings I'm here with the BlackBerry key to Led light Edition version of the BlackBerry key to flagship form, which we have here on the right, and I'm just little quick, side-by-side comparison of the hardware, the software, although the various features, so you know what the difference is between them and which one might be best for you and don't forget a pump. The old subscribe button and ping that notifications bell for more on the latest and greatest mobile tech, Cheers. First, I think, so you stick up side by side and the BlackBerry key ? and key ? LE are kind of hard to tell apart that's kind of why I've used the different desktops on them, both just so I can be sure in my head, which one is which, as you can see there they're effectively the same dimensions more or less the same with the LE is slightly lighter at 156 grams, compared with 168 grams, the original key ? and, of course, they're both rocking at that customary QWERTY keyboard down below with across the built-in touch buttons for the navigation as well. Just above we flip em around they're, both rock a soft touch, rear end as well. It's got this nice sort of textured finish to it really helps out with the grip buttercup's the color schemes they do differ. However, the original key ? can be picked up in either silver or black.

This is the black model, as you see very traditional, dark blackberry finish. The key to LE actually can't be picked up in black. You can pick it up in a slate gray or this lovely champagne gold finish a nice lighter version of it. You could also grab it and the very snazzy new atomic red, which is certainly very in-your-face. We have the two of the rest of the hardware.

You'll see, there's absolutely no difference there either the Le version of the key to once again rocks a mottled power button just to help set it apart from the convenience key, which is how it's just beneath rather inconveniently, some might say, and of course, you've got your elongated volume rocker, just above as well up top you get a 3.5 millimeter headphone jack, no matter which key ? you grab. The SIM tray is the only thing housed over on this left edge and then down beneath that you have your type-c USB for charging back up and some dual bottom firing speakers as well. Sadly, you do not get full board resistance with either of these handsets because, of course, they've both got a QWERTY keyboard. Good luck, plug in all of those gaps and speaking of that keyboard, the key to a lease puts the same key arrangement as the full-sized original key to you once again and get that handy. New Shore cuts button that just allows you to it.

If you hold that down and then hit, for instance, be I've set up as browser, you can then dive between your various apps, nice and quick and easy as long as you actually remember which shortcuts you set up, it's much, much quicker and easier than jumping into the recent apps, our window, which is quite nicely arranged, but at the same time you might be searching around for a while. You've got lots of stuff up and, as I do here, you also once again, I have a fingerprint sensor built into that space bar as well, and just like, with the standard key -. It's nice and nippy, just a quick tap of your print to that surface and, as you can see your straight into your desktops nor worries. However, well the original key to support of a touch, sensitive, keyboards or presence. You can flick through a website just by flicking your finger up and down like, so you don't get any of that functionality here in the key to Ellie, as you can see not touch compatible at all.

But of course it's not exactly a major hardship to reach up here to the screen to scroll about anywhere and to be honest, we were never a massive fan of this autocorrect swipe up feature on that standard. Black Wii key ?, either it's a little hit-and-miss with the sensitivity, so sometimes it just wouldn't register you'd have to sort of flick up a couple of times in order to get it to work so again, no great loss that it's not on the key to Ellie. So what about that screen tech? Well, you once again get a 4.5 inch display here on the key to Ellie. Just like you do with the original key ?, it's once again, a three by two aspect ratios, so quite boxy, which isn't ideal when you are watching a bit of Netflix, something like that means you get quite thick bars above and below the display. So, as you can see there I, hopefully just about you, do get some thick letterbox and when you are enjoying a movie saw your actual viewing space is quite compressed now.

It'll also mean that putting the likes of pub G is an absolute pain in the ass as well. That said, the visuals are nice and punchy at 4.5 inch display sports, a shop 1620 by 1080 pixel resolution, no matter which your choice. So, if you dive in nice and close you'll, see that those images are nice and crisp to make up there, the tiny text you can read no problem whatsoever, logos, nice and sharp as well. The display on the standard key ? just seems to be a little warmer than the display on the key to Ellie is you can hopefully make out there as well? It's not a massive difference between them is definitely noticeable, and I've just dived into the display settings just to make sure that I'm accidentally left on a main board or anything like that, and now that's all turned off so just does seem to be a little. Naturally warmer.

You do get a little more customization here on the standard key too as well. For instance, you can dive into the color section, as you can see, that you've got boosted colors, you can have more natural colors saturate them, whereas you do not get that option here on the key to Ellie. However, you do get the usual night laws and everything as you would expect, just a lot of the picture on both you'll see. As you see, they're nice punchy colors, pretty much on both these devices, some of the more vibrant vivid hues on shining through slightly more on the key to because I've got it on that boosted mods, but honestly, there's not a massive amount of difference between them. As you can see, they're a nice crisp imagery and both of these blackberries, you load up an another picture as well.

You'll see again shop visuals and again those red hues are sort of shining ? ever so slightly more on the original key tube again, there's not a massive amount of difference between them and, of course, the software they're running is identical in both cases as well. You get a nice bit of Android Orion, with black breeze on over there slapped on top. That just adds a bunch of bonus features. So, of course, you've got BBM on there. You've got the excellent D Tech security software suite as well, and, as you can see, detectors basically keeps tabs on your device make sure that no nasty viruses or dodgy apps infiltrates you've got plenty of other nifty security features on there too.

So, for instance, you've got unlocked, which PC just does that and an extra layer of security for any particularly sensitive files that you might have. As you see them, just either verify the fingerprint I've set up a password and I just further encrypt any of your more sensitive bits. You've also got the likes of the redactor things like that, as well, so plenty of stuff in there to keep your sensitive bits confidential and, as usual, of course, you've got the BB hub, which just gathers together all of your emails, your text, your social media, bits you've, got all of that important stuff all in one place and both phones. Of course, you've got the productivity tab, which you just drag out from the edge of the screen at any time. This just shows you exactly or what you've got to do.

? dear again, it gives you fast access to your new Mills and notifications and other bits, and also your favorite contacts. The rest of the specs are different, however, here on the key to LE you, get a Snapdragon 6-3 six, which is a slightly pared down chipset, compared with a six sixty found here on the standard, key ?, and you also get less Ram it in the key to LE as well. Four gigs around copy over the six gigs stuffed inside the key ? doesn't make a massive difference. To be honest, not really every day of running still seems perfectly smooth here on the key to LE. You will see the occasional little stutter and stammer here and there, but on the fall it enjoys life quite nicely, especially in person concerned.

How many bonus features BlackBerry has thrown on their dive on into good old Geek bench as well. You'll see again not a massive discrepancy between the two. The BlackBerry key ? is only slightly in the league compared with the Le version. The storage is also different as well here on the BlackBerry key ?, you get a choice with a 64 or 128 gigs of storage, rather than the Le version is either 32 or 64 gigs fee. Not, though, because both of these Blackberry phones support micro, SD memory cards, you can slap in a Tundra, 56 gig cards to rapidly expand and fit in plenty.

More media becomes the battery life. However, the standard BlackBerry key ? should be superior to the Le version. It's got 3,500 William cell, compared with the Le editions, 3000 William cell. So far, however, touch one, it looks like you just about make it through the day with the Le and they both support quick charge 3.0 when it comes time to power back up. So what about the camera? Tech? Well, as you can see here, both of these blackberry blowers, Rock a dual lens: maria's snapper against the standard blackberry, key ?, you get a 12 megapixel primary ends, F 1, point 8 and that's backed by another 12 megapixel secondary lens F 2 point 6.

The specs have been pared back slightly for the BlackBerry key 2 LE. However, you get a 13 megapixel primary lens, but it's AF 2.2, so not quite as good in those low-light conditions and that's backed by a more basic 5, megapixel secondary lens, and that one's f 2.4 we dive on into the camera app you'll, see, there's not a huge amount of difference between the two in terms of features and general setup. However, as you see, you got fast toggles, like the HDR mode up top, and you do get your bonus. Camera modes in both cases as well, give put a portrait mode action, of course, because they both have that dual lens setup saying a nice crisp shot of your subject: a nice blurry box, style backgrounds. We jump on into the video you.

Can she look a folk resolution, video on both of these smartphones? As well as you can see there for Year 30 frames per second, then you also have a full HD 1080p option at 60 frames per second, as also a bit of the is better digital video stabilization on both of these handsets as well. Of course, once you hit that 4k level, you can basically forget about it and they both support. They lock a board as well, which just allows you to tick a snap using the fingerprint sensor instead of the shutter button and that just gets whisked off straight to the locker app. So if you take any more sensitive photos, so then you don't have to worry about it, because the photo quality will be superior on the standard key to thanks to the fact that it's got, that higher aperture setup and that more dedicated secondary lens as well. There's no difference when it comes to the front-facing camera tech of It's and it megapixel snapper on both of these, in both cases, fixed focus as well.

So, as you can see, they're just latches onto your face, and then you can take a shot, nice and easy, and that right there, in a nutshell, is the BlackBerry key to LE versus the original blackberry key to that's a bit of a difference in price. The original key to is 579 quid compared with the 350 pounds, blackberry key to Kelly's, they're, quite considerable drop in price there. As you can see, the specs aren't massively different in terms of the performance, there's not a huge amount in it, slightly smaller battery, of course, and you do get the pared down camera tech on the LE. However, the software is essentially the same. The overall experience remains pretty damn solid.

So that's know in the comments below. Are you tempted to spring for the full fat black breed key -?
