Review: BlackBerry Motion

By Gadjo Cardenas Sevilla

I like that the BlackBerry Motion is built for real world situations. It doesn't need to be babied, you can get by without case. This is such a refreshing departure from the current slew of ultra-expensive, super delicate glass flagship smartphones which cost over a thousand dollars to buy and hundreds of dollars to ensure and repair.

TCL has followed up on the impressive BlackBerry KEYOne QWERTY-keyboard enabled Android smartphone with a larger-equally impressive touchscreen device called the BlackBerry Motion.

Originally codenamed 'Krypton,' because it brings scratchproof glass, is also the first BlackBerry to offer IP67 water resistance and offers unparalleled privacy and security out of the box, BlackBerry Motion is an impressive piece of work.

Tesla's new semi trucks obliterate the acceleration of current diesel trucks and even do a better job of pulling loads up hills. The Tesla semi trucks have a 500 mile range at maximum weight at highway speeds (worse case scenario, according to Elon Musk). 

The Tesla semi has a better drag coefficient than the Bugatti Chiron supercar. Tesla designed the trucks to be aerodynamic, has a way to close the drag of whatever containers are being pulled. The Tesla Semis have independent suspension as well as four motors to better disperse the load. Tesla really put serious thought on redesigning the semi truck and has even considered charging (a semi can charge up to 400 miles in 30 minutes, ideal for truck stop breaks). Because the chargers are solar powered Tesla chargers, they are basically running on sunlight (well, mostly).
