Bring your questions about DTEK50 to BlackBerry's first Facebook Live event on Thursday July 28. I'll be hosting a Q&A with Global Head of Device Sales, Alex Thurber (right).

Alex will answer your questions about DTEK's svelte design, its end user features such as its sharp 13 MP camera, the productivity enhancements of its custom Android UI, the secure flavor of Android running on it, and why it may be the perfect phone for your workforce.

Just simply log into our Facebook page (www.Facebook.com/BlackBerry) tomorrow at 2 pm ET/11 am ET and you'll be able to watch live and ask questions. Or check our Facebook page any time after the videochat to watch it afterwards.

Please feel free to tweet questions in advance to Alex - he's active on Twitter @Alex_Thurber.

You can also send us questions via Twitter @BlackBerry, Facebook or Instagram. Use the hashtag #DTEK50 when possible.
