黑莓猛然惊醒：我们还有一个大杀器 - 黑莓,BBM - IT资讯
加拿大黑莓在智能手机市场遭遇滑铁卢，其在消费者市场所剩下的最有价值资产就是黑莓移动聊天工具BBM（“黑莓信使”），BBM在全球仍然拥有几亿人活跃用户。日前，该产品跟随同行的节奏，推出了视频通话功能。
由于黑莓操作系统实力不济，黑莓已经彻底转向了安卓系统，2016年将会继续推出若干款安卓手机。不过华尔街分析师普遍认为，这将是黑莓在手机领域的最后一次努力，如果销售继续疲软，黑莓将彻底放弃硬件业务，转型为软件和服务公司。届时，BBM将会在黑莓扮演更加核心的角色。
据美国科技新闻网站PCWorld报道，黑莓日前宣布推出视频聊天功能，名为“BBM Video”。目前暂时处于测试期。
目前视频聊天暂时面向美国和加拿大地区用户推出，安卓版要求用户安装安卓4.4及以后的版本，iOS则要求8以上的版本。大约在七月份，全球其他市场的BBM用户，将能使用视频聊天。
BBM的视频聊天也是跨平台的，安卓用户自然也能够和黑莓、苹果用户相互聊天。
BBM最初是文字聊天工具，2014年，BBM开始支持语音聊天。而在移动聊天领域，支持视频通话早已不是新鲜功能，黑莓此举仅仅是追赶其他同行。
值得一提的是，在智能手机业务遭遇失败的背景下，黑莓最近开始投入更多资源提升BBM，不久前，黑莓宣布将BBM的许多收费功能转为免费提供。
BBM虽然进入市场较早，但是在全球移动聊天热潮之中，BBM出现了落后的态势。Facebook旗下的Messenger、WhatsApp，中国的微信、苹果的iMessage、日本的Line、以及美国的Snapchat等都在快速发展用户，其中Facebook一家公司的两个产品，就已经拥有将近20亿人的全球活跃用户。
据悉，在印度尼西亚等黑莓手机传统市场，BBM拥有大量的活跃用户。
有分析认为，无论是在智能手机还是移动聊天，黑莓公司的保守僵化和动作迟缓，导致其局面进一步陷入今天的被动。
