you know whilst the BlackBerry Key2 is all about being productive and being
efficient and getting all your stuff done and hustling; sometimes it's good to
just chill out on the couch watch some movies, play some games, but can the
BlackBerry key2 handle that or is it only for emails? Let's find out!
Hey welcome to another Talking Tech With TheTechieGuy
my name's Liron Segev where I make tech simple and today it's all
about media consumption on the blackberry KEY2. now media consumption is
just another fancy buzzword marketing term meaning can i watch movies? can I
listen to music? Can I play some games? and will this phone handle it?
Let's put the BlackBerry Key2 through those paces!
okay so let's start off with
something like Hulu. let's see what that looks like
let's find something to watch. Future Man yeah whatever, I don't know what that is
like that and let's see what it looks like okay so the one thing that you'll
immediately notice it doesn't go fullscreen so when you turn into
portrait mode it doesn't fill the entire screen it's very clear sounds great
looks good remember this room is very lit because of the camera so it's
still pretty cool okay let's step it up can you run Netflix at
the same time that you run Hulu okay now these are two gonna be very graphic
intensive applications let's see what it does
so we'll fire up Netflix let's do that first and find something to watch which
is always a problem on Netflix okay let's do that
cool you can see you can actually put a you can actually minimize that and put a
picture in the picture but can you play two movies at the same time and Netflix
can we run them simultaneously
there we go in fact if you listen get a sound
coming out of both the Netflix and Hulu
I think it's pretty cool let's pause those
what else can we do? let's see if we can fire up something like YouTube
suppose YouTube is a good thing to test right is a whole bunch of them let's
find one of my blackberry movies just to kind of keep the theme going here and
can you play YouTube at the same time that you play Hulu?
I don't have YouTube red
so it doesn't allow me to pop you out that video so this is just a regular
good old YouTube with no subscription alright what else can we do? um Oh what
about PUBG? can you play that which is we know it's pretty intensive, at the
same time whilst watching a movie?
PUBG takes quite a while to load so while
it is doing that, that I'm gonna carry on watching my movie
let's fast forward this bit so
we can actually just get into the game and let's see what the graphics are like
okay so now just so we clear I've got Netflix, Hulu, YouTube, PUBG
running I can see PUBG, I can see my Hulu movie playing at the same time
doesn't seem to be any lag on PUBG graphic seems to be cool awesome
responsive and watching my movie at the same time
that's multitasking for you!
if I want to switch into my continue to watch my
youtube videos I can just do that
the multitasking on this device is just insane!
all right let's do something else let's go into another game and something
like subway surfers and let's see how that's how that's responsive again
whilst watching the movie the entire time
there's no leg on that either
simple game good graphics everything's perfectly cool
okay what else can we do
how about Pandora let's listen to a Pandora station - comedy thing just you
keep it PG ok we all going at the same time watch a movie
right how much what
just good old Instagram see what Instagram movies will be like while the
other movie is playing.
Again, no lag just seems to work perfectly
lets get serious. let's close everything down let's just
do PUBG and see how that works on the key2. I must say that whilst it's no lag
between watching kind of Netflix and Hulu and Netflix and YouTube or
Instagram stories when you get your game like this where everything is about
screen movement and reaction times there is a slight delay it's almost a little
just a tiny little lag which is a little frustrating because you tend to miss
your shots by that tiny split second so you'll see
as I'm will move we keep moving moving moving around yet
you'll see that as I get locked on target as I press the button
it's just that is a little delay from the time you press the time the bullet
actually fires out now obviously on a game like this, well
that could be between winning and losing graphic wise is everything pretty cool
it renders really really well music wise sound was again also good
reaction times fine like I'm not the greatest PUBG
player in the first place but this it is something a little bit frustrating here
we're just misses it's just a little off it could be my aiming not saying it's not
alright let's go try and find this guy okay I wonder what Fortnite will look
like once Fortnite does become available for Android officially. whether that will
translate really well into this or not oh we have the same reaction remember
in Fortnite you get so many more buttons, you get to build, you've got a whole bunch
of things to deal with I wonder how that will work on a device like this
let me show you kind of once you kind of do slow the game down a little bit and
you do tend to get more control over it so hold on give me shots yeah there we
go this one and let's finish HIM or her...
you can see the BlackBerry key two can handle this with no problem so not only
is it good for work being productive and getting your stuff done but it's also
pretty cool for media consumption it's pretty cool for playing games it's
pretty cool for watching Netflix and Hulu at the same time so you can double
speed your binge watching and catch up and of course you can bounce between
your applications so you can go from the one to the other to the other are there
any issues? yes a little bit of a lag here with the games like PUBG
other games you're not going to feel it's like driving simulators don't
really notice any difference whatsoever and again when you're not running
multiple things at the same time you're not asking the phone to handle multiple
things at the same time well it's obviously going to respond better so are
there any other additional features on the BlackBerry key 2 that you need to
be aware of? Great questions! and of course they are! first
of all check out the BlackBerry keyboard video if you haven't seen that one
already here it is and there'll be more features
and coming up on the next episode of talking Tech With TheTechieGuy
dont forget to smash that subscribe button give me a thumbs up if you liked
what you saw tell me what you think about now PUBG playing skill? I
think I'm pro basically professional Shonduras I'm coming for your team
dude and I'll see you on the next episode
cheers for now
