In a world where smartphones are dominated by the Apple iOS and Android operating systems, many are wondering if there's still room for BlackBerry in the market.

It must be considered that BlackBerry was doing exceptionally well before the advent of the smartphones. What about now? How can BlackBerry get back in the game?

BlackBerry released the Z10 with hopes that it could run with the big guys like Samsung and Apple. Sadly, it didn't, and BlackBerry had to go hit the books and find a way to get back in the ball game. And what best way to try and hit a homerun than by going back to what they did best — doing the classics.

BlackBerry, which was always known to be the phone for businessmen, is going back to its roots. The BlackBerry Q20, now known as the BlackBerry Classic, offers features that every BlackBerry fan had loved from the phone manufacturing company from the start. 

First, the physical keyboard is back — yes that's the full QWERTY keyboard for people who hate typing on a touch-screen when in a rush. There's still something different about pushing those physical keys. They can pound away those emails and not worry about making typos or auto-correct errors.

The next feature to love about the BlackBerry Classic is the updated hardware. It has dramatically improved since last year's Q10. Now, there's a 3.5-inch touch screen and sports a dual-core processor. According to Business News Daily, the Classic will have improved battery performance, too.

The last and probably the best feature of the BlackBerry Classic is the security feature. For one, the phone itself monitors a user's activity so it will send security warnings. This will help prevent documents from being sent, copied, or accessed from social media applications. This feature is very handy for people who heavily use their phones for business.

Further, there is a device-management console where the user is allowed to give access to certain apps for employees. It keeps business information private and deletes business data when needed.

There is still no definite date for the BlackBerry Classic release. Nonetheless, speculations say that it may come out early in 2015.
