My Phone upgrade is coming in a week. I wonder if I should stay with Apple or move back to BlackBerry. Blackbery has far better PIM apps, however no iCloud and hardly any apps. I do miss the keyboard, and the stupidity of apple in iOS 7 with their PIM apps such as Reminders, Calendar, Phone, etc.. makes me want to move elsewhere. iOS 7 has lots of nice features, however PIM seems to have taken a dump. Opinions?

I hate Blackberry and the brand is dying/dead. Anything but them really! Windows, Android or Apple...

My first iPhone is on its way to me now and I'm coming from a Samsung Nexus.

However, with BB almost a dead phone manufacture, I would stay away from them like the plague. They will most likely be bought out (they are being sold more than likely) and will die a rather quick death or the best parts will be gutted out and sold to the highest bidders. I have a BB for work and its little wonder to me why they are in the financial straights they are in now.

Plenty still use them and what others do has no impact on me. Personally I dont give a rat what others are doing for I only care about my needs. I love Apple but PIM in iOS 7 has really bombed. other than that iOS 7 rocks.

Those at crackberry.com will disagree with you. They are far better for PIM.

Personally why do I care what everyone else is doing?????? I only care about my needs. Why do I care what everyone else is doing????

If you don't care what others think then why are asking if you should stay with apple. I think you've made up your mind already.

In my opinion, you should make up your own mind, instead of asking complete strangers to help make up your mind for you.
