However, BlackBerry was the first to be produced of the two. It was basically designed for business purposes, and it was the first smartphone to make email transfer possible.

There was a time when Blackberry phones were very popular. A lot of people wanted to get Blackberry phones. They would also try to message each other with the use of their very own Blackberry models. When Android phones became more popular after, people usually chose to have them too.

The thing about Blackberry is that they are more focused on things that are related to business, while Android phones are more centered towards apps. The security system of Blackberry is considered to be really good, while the security system of Android is not really considered to be the best right now.

You can have access to media through the portable media player attached to the phone. Blackberry happened to be the very first phone that would allow the transfer of mail. Conversely, android phones happen to be the latest and reigning Smartphone in the world presently. It is designed to be quite easy and simple to use.

However, android phones are exposed to risks of being hacked and attacked by malware or spyware. While some blackberry devices are navigated through their screens, and most through buttons, relatively all android phones are operated through the screen.
