BlackBerry Q10 First Impressions

BlackBerry Q10 First Impressions

[DRIFTDREAMS]

i have bought the Z10 when it came out and loved the os. its truly an amazing device. i am a longtime BlackBerry, so the change to full touchscreen was a change. given my insane amount of emails at work, i always kept my 9900 for work. i upgraded to the z10 and completely love the keyboard. its truly the best of both worlds. i would highly recommend the Q10 for anyone who wants a change from their current mobile device.

I got my hands on one about 3 weeks ago. It's definitely to have the keyboard back! While the app selection isn't too hot, the Blackberry functionality still is awesome.
Great video Jon!

I set each one u p from scratch. I have it down to a 20 minute process.

Technobuffalo did not switch to the one channel, youtube is making it permanent on every channel whether you like it or not.

How bout that full review?? Would love to hear your thoughts now that you've had a little bit of time with the Q10...

Actually the company changed its name from Research in Motion to BlackBerry earlier this year. Some people might still refer to it as RIM, just out of habit.

talking about the build, the outter bezel is made out of titanium and is one piece. It takes 20 munites to hand make that

A good thing about the square screen resolution is that its perfect for posting instagram pics

I had a Blood 9900 and the keyboard shortcuts are great.

Thank you blackberry!
The only company that still builds keyboards. I just hate typing onscreen, when I'm on the go. :/

Can you cover the different actions using the keyboard when on the home screen

[backtonature]

I-phone 5, htc 1 nor any other flat screen phone will ever come close to the typing ability of a blackberry. Those keys make everything easier, ill never give them up.

Do you think it would be easy to get use to the smaller screen if you've been using a phone with a 4inch screen?

BB10's app drawer looks horrendous, although I like just about everything else about the OS.

And Windows Phone was and still is amazing. It's surprising how well the design language has stood for well over 5 years (thanks, Zune HD).

Wanting a keyboard back was a problem when most touch screens sucked. Like on the envTiouch. Now most phones have a very nice touch keyboard. The way I see it, going back only kills possible screen space, no point in it now.

[johngrey]

Question, is it odd not using the optical trackpad? Or are you more used to using the touch screen and "swiping" to get around?

[callmemarc]

In your review, could you discuss which apps are completing missing? IE, apps where sideloading the Android version doesn't work well or at all? For instance, when I had a Z10, I could sideload the Android version of Netflix but I found it to be almost unusable.

[andynguyen]

Can you answer this, is switching from the 9900 to this awkward because it has the straight keyboard layout instead of the curved.

Retina version of the iPad Mini? Do you know something we don't?!

Nice review. I went to check out today at my local carrier, I was pretty impressed. But currently I'm using the iphone 5, I'm very happy with it. I'm not big app users, I'm pretty happy with normal apps. But I'm a big email user. Now my question is if this phone is good enough to switch from iphone 5? Since you already used it for a 4 days, so you might be able guide me here. Thanks Jon.
