People can now see how far RIM have come when it come to quality smartphones,HTC is the only company that earn my respect after RIM because Samsung,LG and the rest borrow their current designs from HTC phones.

Odinaka00: Bb 10 a must buy

The BlackBerry Z10 has finally arrived after what has been a very tough year for the company and with the rumoured iPhone 6 and Samsung Galaxy S4 handsets due to land in 2013, the battle has only just begun.

Launched alongside the physical keyboard-toting BlackBerry Q10, the Z10's current competitors take the shape of the iPhone 5, Samsung Galaxy S3, HTC One X, Sony Xperia Z and Nokia Lumia 920. But has it got what it takes to make it into the list of the best smartphones around?

Verdict bbZ10

The Z10 is a decent smartphone offering up a strong range of features and a fancy new operating system that may catch the eye of the technologically adventurous.

It does pretty much everything we'd expect from a high-end device and there are no major flaws.

That said, the Z10 also lacks any killer selling points. It's hard to find reasons why we'd recommend this over say the Samsung Galaxy S3, iPhone 5, Sony Xperia Z, HTC One X or Nokia Lumia 920 - all of which are around the same price as the Z10.

I personally expected an improvement in Z10 battery compared to pre-versions. Z10 only has an 1800mAh battery so it was never likely to impress when the likes of the Samsung Galaxy S3 have 2100mAh units. But it still put up a pretty good fight, lasting a day without too much bother. Notable is that, unlike the iPhone 5, it isn’t very good at eking out the last little drop of battery life. So where the iPhone 5 will sometimes push on through the night with a tiny amount of battery left the Z10 was always dead in the morning. The iPhone 5 will run out just as quick if you’re using it but sat idle it’s impressive at keeping going.

The unproven (quirky) operating system and severe lack of headlining applications will turn a lot of consumers off at point of sale, and it's the image of the BlackBerry brand as a whole which needs to be worked on fast if it stands a chance of winning back the hearts of the general public.
The BlackBerry Z10 has the weight of a whole company on its plastic shoulders. It's holding up, but we're not sure for how long.

Frostyzone:



Apple's iphone was the pioneer not your blasted blackberry that is about to disappear from the U.S market forever.


Iphone journey into the world of smartphones started with their romance with Motorola in 2003 which didn't quite yield the needed result.
They got it right in 2007 with the release of the iphone 1,below is the released date for all the iphones:
Release date
Original: June 29, 2007
iPhone 3G: July 11, 2008
iPhone 3GS: June 19, 2009
iPhone 4: June 24, 2010
iPhone 4S: October 14, 2011
iPhone 5: September 21, 2012
.
In the other hand RIM/Blackberry released their first device blackberry 850 ( an email pager device) in June 1996 and had about 400,000 users,by June 2002 Blackberry already amassed 51 million users with release of the 5810.
Where was your iphone,Nokia,Samsung,LG and what quality of phones did they put into the market in 2002,compare the phones to BB 5810 in terms of design and functions then come back to fool yourself.
Attached are pics of both the BB 850 (email pager device) and the 5810 for to feed your blind eyes,idio:t.
The G1 released by HTC in 2008 running android 2.0 also fared better than the iPhone 3G released same year,that's to say iPhone didn't pioneer high tech phones as you dumbly stated but only worked hard to improved on the already existing specs by designing something different from was already in the market.

Blackberry should pay more attention to Africa, since, this is still one of their strongest bases.

I got iPhone 4s,sold my GS3 to buy HTC One X and compliment them with a BB torch2,does that makes a BB fan? The answer is capital NO,I am only trying to correct his dumb brain.
Well as for me comparing Nokia and blackberry,attached are pics of the Blackberry 850 and Nokia 640 both released in 1999 as that will give idea of what Nokia was manufacturing before RIM emergence.
The BB 850 device had a full
keyboard, which was unusual at the time. It could send messages, access email, send and receive pages and act as a basic organizer.
But the Nokia 640 could not even send a full text message,give respect to whom respect is due.
For that idio:t called Frostyzone to say Iphone pioneered smartphones is a big insult to RIM as Job got all his ideas from RIM existing devices.
.
What do you mean by" give respect to Nokia because it started way back before RIM" because as far as I know RIM was founded in 1984 ,started manufacturing Wireless devices in 1988 and that to me is a long time,HTC was incorporated 1997 and was originally making laptops/notebooks before venturing into the mobile phone market in 1998.

HTC made the first windows and android phones and was also one of the pioneers of touch-screen phones,that's where Job got his ideas to design for the iPhone.
