DISPLAY BlackBerry Porsche Design P'9983
Display Type LCD display
Screen Size (Display Size) 3.1" Worse than 77 % of phones rated.
Screen Resolution (Display Resolution) 720 x 720 pixels Worse than 51 % of phones rated.
Colour Depth 16.7 million colours Better than 98 % of phones rated.

The screen size reaches 3.1" inches. Phones with smaller displays are easier to use with one hand. The experience is less pleasant compared to phones with large displays. However, if you're buying a phone for basic use and don't want, for example, a good gaming experience or a large screen for watching movies, this size should be good enough for you. LCD displays are currently taking a back seat. This is mainly due to higher power consumption. In addition, they have the disadvantage of lower colour contrast, which can be reflected e.g. in the resulting photos. On the other hand, phones with LCD displays are in general cheaper than those with OLED technology.

Display Resolution of BlackBerry Porsche Design P'9983 is 720 x 720 pixels. A higher display resolution is a prerequisite for a sharper image. The standard for mid-range phones today is a Full HD resolution of 1920 × 1080 px. Cheaper phones, which usually have a smaller diagonal, have an HD resolution of 1280 × 720 px. Smaller resolutions can only be found in older models. Best phones, on the other hand, have a 4K resolution of 3840 x 2160 px.

PROCESSOR BlackBerry Porsche Design P'9983
Processor Type (CPU) Qualcomm
Processor Number MSM8960
Clock Speed 1.5 GHz Better than 54 % of phones rated.
Processor Core Qty Dual-core Worse than 90 % of phones rated.

BlackBerry Porsche Design P'9983 is equipped with Qualcomm. The number of processor cores is 2. It is a number of cores that plays an important role in evaluating the performance of phone as it is responsible for computing operations. Smartphones already commonly have a core count of around 4 to 8. Multi-core processors can perform better and reduce the processing time of a request to a minimum, which is reflected in the responsiveness of the phone, e.g. in the speed of opening applications. The processor frequency indicates how many instructions phone can process in 1 second. The higher the frequency, the better the performance. Standard processor frequency range today is between 1.8 GHz and 2.8 GHz. BlackBerry Porsche Design P'9983 reaches the frequency of 1.5 GHz.

MEMORY BlackBerry Porsche Design P'9983
RAM 2 GB Better than 55 % of phones rated.
Internal Memory Size (Storage Capacity) 64 GB Better than 75 % of phones rated.
Supported Flash Memory Cards (Expandable Memory) microSDHC, microSDXC - up to 128 GB

The phone´s internal memory capacity is 64 GB. The size of the internal storage determines e.g., how many photos, songs, movies, or applications you can store on your phone. For everyday use and storing photos, songs or movies, this medium-sized internal storage is ideal. The advantage is also a lower price of phones equipped with this storage capacity. Best phones today range from 256 GB to 1 TB. That size is suitable for the most demanding users who shoot a lot of high-resolution photos or videos in 4K. Nevertheless, you'll have to pay extra for these higher capacities. Luckily, most smartphone manufacturers nowadays offer models with different memory sizes to suit every user.

An additional option to increase the storage capacity of this model is to insert a memory card.

RAM memory of the BlackBerry Porsche Design P'9983 is 2 GB. Most powerful phones currently have an operating memory of 12 GB or more, which is especially useful for demanding users such as gaming enthusiasts. Normally, phones nowadays have 6 to 8 GB of RAM, which means that the phone can easily handle normal operation and more demanding applications. Operating memory of less than 4 GB is found in lower-end phones or older models, and they are suitable for low-end users who don't use demanding applications and have the phone more for basic use.

The rear camera of the BlackBerry Porsche Design P'9983 has only one lens. Single lens is more typical for older phones or lower-end phones with lower quality cameras. The rear cameras of modern phones nowadays are usually equipped with two, three and sometimes even five rear camera lenses. The resolution of the main lens is 8 Megapixel. Higher resolution does not necessarily mean super high quality photos. Furthermore, it depends on the pixel size but also on other important factors. The aperture of main lens reaches F/2.2 value. The best phones have a lens with an aperture of up to F/1.5, where more light can pass through sensor and photos will be of a high quality even in low light conditions. However, lenses with apertures around F/1.8 to F/2.2 are the most common. The lower the number after the slash, the better the photo quality.

Digital zoom in this case offers zooming up to 5x. Of course, the higher the lens value, the more distant object can be zoomed in. Nonetheless, the disadvantage of digital zoom is that the quality and sharpness of photo deteriorates when using it.

Front camera
The front camera of phone BlackBerry Porsche Design P'9983 has one lens. This number of lenses is standard on most smartphones nowadays. The resolution of front lens reaches 2 Megapixel. Again, it should be noted that resolution is only one of several other significant factors that affect resulting quality of a photo.

BATTERY AND CHARGING BlackBerry Porsche Design P'9983
Battery Capacity (Battery Size) 2100 mAh Better than 50 % of phones rated.
Standby Time 288 hours Worse than 66 % of phones rated.
Talk Time 840 minutes Better than 67 % of phones rated.
Run Time Details Talk (WCDMA): up to 840 min
Talk (GSM): up to 540 min
Standby (GSM): up to 288 hrs

Playback (video): up to 8.1 hrs
Standby (WCDMA): up to 288 hrs

The battery size of BlackBerry Porsche Design P'9983 is 2100 mAh. Nevertheless, battery capacity is not the only factor that affects the phone's battery life. For example - the size of the display, the performance of the processor, the use of data functions and, of course, the intensity of use of phone in general all have a significant impact on battery life. Standard for most smartphones today is a battery capacity of around 4500 to 5000 mAH. Phones with this battery size usually guarantee a phone life of at least 1 day. Older or cheaper smartphone models can then reach battery capacities typically around 2500 mAH and below. With this capacity, you may find that if you use your phone heavily, you may need to recharge your phone during the day.

Standby time is 288 hours and it expresses the maximum time your phone can last on a single charge when you are not actively using it. Talk time, or we can say battery life when making calls, then indicates amount of time your phone will last from a full charge if you are constantly on a call. BlackBerry Porsche Design P'9983 is provided with a talk time about 840 minutes.
