Denn: So many analysts here focus on sentiments rather than factual observations.

The old OS on BlackBerry was outdated. This threatened RIM's existence. BB10 was designed to correct the basic flaws on existing black berries.

BlackBerry 10 is a brand new OS with no hang over to the old system. It was built from the ground up.

Z10 (which runs on the BB10 platform) has the ability to match the average high end phone in the market. Reviews (even from critics) have been commendable. The only limitation (as with every brand new OS) is the relatively 'small' app market and little bugs that are being corrected with OTA updates...now what do you need 2 million apps for?

Multitasking, video chat via bbm, HF gaming, high end apps, voice clarity (including HD audio) , BBM chat, best touch keyboard etc are features you will find on the new z10.

how can you ridicule something you have not used or upgraded your knowledge about. Same way

Comparing techno to Z10? ww.notjustok.dazall


You know what you are talking about. Nairaland is full of sentimental Nigerians

For some people that jump from 3310 to BB, their first experience of a real phone is BB and as such they don't know that all they are seeing for the first time was already enjoyed by many years back.
Eg.
Many talk about email, push emails was already on symbian before 2008.
Opening many apps and switching between. Since 2009 , symbian has been running multi-tasking.
The good thing about BB is that it opened some people's eyes to smart fone but the smartest one always stepped up their game to Android. The Ultimate OS

funshint: I just pity these android users in 9ja. By d time u pay heavily 4 data usage u'll do nothing but run bk 2 BB. I'm not saying BB is d best but let's be frank, d economic status of most pple in dis country does not really favour d usage of most of these android or IOS phones. u all claim 2 hv all dis free browsing tweaks and cheats; just wait till d ntwk operators outsmart u and fall your hand. Remembered wen Nokia java and symbian still rocked I was alwys looking 4 d latest browsing cheats infact I made a business 4rm it until I started using BB; I don't worry about my data usage with unlimited download. Never knew browsing could be so sweet and stress-free; infact I just wasted my time den but it wuz fun sha!
I make sure any device I use soothes my lifestyle. All d useful app like whatsapp, operamini, UCweb, googlemap, repligo reader, instant mail service, bible, some games etc run very fine on my BB and I'm very prudent with my battery usage. I only open apps I nid, I close down those I'm not using. I'm not a game freak, I hv fast access 2 my contacts, I hv d freedom 2 choose btw BBM, whatsapp, 2go, Badoo, etc Tell me what else do I need!!!
Most of u shouting android dis and dat are not in tune wit reality in 9ja; infact I'm sure most of u are not currently in 9ja. Most android users I know in 9ja also hv a BB. When u cum 2 9ja all 'ur android and iphones will becoming nothing better than a 2way radio or a cellular. Get dat into 'ur thick android blackwashed brains. BEEF!!!
The truth about dis issue is dat America can't just stand competition with products 4rm other countries. Hp u know dat BB is a canadian company while iPhone and android(google) are yankee based. So do d analysis u'll realise why they are so bent on bringing BB down @ all cost. Its pure BEEF!!!
Come 2 think of it just because TECNO now runs on android dat is enough justification 4 me to buy it? TECNO my foot!!!
Pls its a free world, let everybdy choose wat is best 4 them according 2 wat their pocket says.
N.B:- BB Z10 was not made with d average 9ja user in mind so I can't recommend it if wat u're lukin 4 is unlimited data usage rather go for os 6 or 7 BBs. Thank u!

chai i pity the person that gave you access to the internet. Please tell me which network offers UNLIMITED BIS in nigeria apart Etisalat?

So everone in the world is a Nigerian. On the same forum that some of you claim blackberry is dead?

Facts will be rubbish for an ignorant mind. So, if a phone is not launched officially here that means you can not use it here. My S2 was the T-MOBILE version. Go figure how I got it. I bought the Z10 before it was launched here, you can figure that out too.

Nairaland so full of ignorant kids that think they know.

And for your big part, some ofyou don't know the kind of people you respondto on anonymous forums. 10years plus experience in IT/Telecoms industry isn't a joke. I bet you are still in school 10 years ago.

Learn to respond to people properly Everdeen if you have a contrary opinion


sad for u to rate bb z10 over the HTC ONE clearly shows that your 10years plus experience in IT/Telecoms industry is a total waste shocked

no offence sir wink just saying sad

pafo: This apps argument for androids is getting really annoying. I used a galaxy s2 and my phone was as good as useless buying 260mb for 1k, till I switched to bold 5 and now I get free series download, supercool qwerty keys, fast internet speed all unlimited for just 1500k monthly. What more could I wish for? Badass Apps my foot, BB saves u cash.

Ignorance is bliss. Enjoy yourself bro.

abeg lets face facts....

The only thing a BB can do is just PINGING!!! And that has been taken over by whatsapp...

A droid can play HD games, serve as a wireless hotspot, superfast downloads, over 600,000 free apps....

I know some BB fans will say bold5,6 and curve7 can also serve as a wireless hotspot, but i heard you need credit to do that, apart from the BIS subscription, but with a droid, its FREEEEEEEE!!!!!

Why buy a 100K Z10 when you can buy an infinix or tecno for 12-15K, with better value for money!!!

symbian didn't have push. it polled emails (the phone checks the mail server for new messages at intervals, with BlackBerry's push email, the server "pushes" the email to the phone. That's why if you turn off your BlackBerry and you have 10 emails while it's off, you will see them the moment it comes back on. Symbian didn't do that)

As seen from the pictures below, BlackBerry 10 as a platform can play android apps through an emulator just the same android plays its apps. It won't play ALL the apps (e.g apps that are built with the android NDK exclusively) but it definitely does play android apps. In fact a good number of apps on BlackBerry Workd are android apps.

What's better, is you can port android apps your self and side load them on your phone (You can see instagram and flipboard running in one of the pictures and those aren't on BlackBerry World yet) THere's a tutorial on how to do that here:
http://www.techsuplex.com/2013/04/02/tip-how-to-install-android-apps-on-your-blackberry-z10-and-playbook/

Coming from someone that uses all the platforms side by side daily, one platform, would never be better than the other, WHy? because everyone's needs are different.

just thought to chip that in, for more techy, gadgety stuff, feel free to visit the blog www.techsuplex.com

cheers.
