You listed the BlackBerry Passport as one of the biggest tech fails of 2014? Have you even used the phone for an extensive period of time? Have you read about the Passport running out of stock of its initial shipments?
-- "pretty much impossible to use with one hand"
There are a good number of phablets that are pretty much impossible to use with one hand, so why is this being counted as a negative?
-- "Add in buggy performance"
Again, have you used the BB10 OS for any extensive period of time? It's a given that every operating system has glitches, but from first-hand experience, BB10 OS is smooth, intuitive, and secure.
I'm sorry, but the fact that you listed the Passport on here leads me to question your passing of judgment.
