    Any inputs on what to buy, I personally like the design and build quality of the Q10 but the double typing issue is what makes me think of opting for the Q5 since they are both running BB10 OS and has a keyboard.

    Q10.
    I have double type for about 4 months now and it's just not big deal it's not every time I txt. Double type is same like when I press wrong button once a day or maybe even less, my issue it's not daily problem.

    How about the battery life? Does it last for 2 days or just a day?

    Q5 can be had for $100-150. It's pretty attractive and you aren't locked into a contract.

    My Q10's battery last 18 hours on work days, I use it quite a bit. On my days off, I don't need to charge it, I'll get 2 days out of the battery.

    Battery consumption is going to be different for everyone depending on usage.

    I have a good day with battery I don't need to think is it going to last all day or not. Some times late afternoon I have 50% battery but that is not good for two days

    My Q10 experience:
    If I'm abusing GPS and Wifi, the phone will last a few hours max. If it's idling on my desk at work, and I use it for texts and calls, it'll still have over 60% by the time I go to bed. Either way, I just let it charge overnight.

    Overall, I think the Q10 would be the better buy, a high quality device with a nice keyboard. I love using my wife's The Q5 reminds me of the old curves, which weren't bad, I'm just not a huge fan of the keyboard style. Much prefer the Q10.

    For me, the internal memory would be a factor. And I like the way the keyboard is on the Q10 vs the Q5. But if u r looking for value, the Q5 is a good choice.

    Q10 has better quality built, elegant design, oled screen, it,s really better than q5,but...I have to accept that q5 is a very good choice for his prize and his querty is awesome. if u have big hands,you,ll appreciate the space between letters os this querty. Very confortable and fast typing.

    I have both, I'm actually using the Q5 right now, but the Q10 is the bees knees! It has started to double type so I'd say go for the 5!

    I've read from other users who have both phones that the build quality and keyboard are a lot nicer on the Q10, as well as the camera and other specs. If you're planning on installing many android apps and using the phone for fun as well as productivity, the Q10 would be the better choice. As long as you get a newer build the double-typing issue should not be present

    I've never experienced the "double-typing" issue on my Q10. I highly recommend this device!!

    My two month old Q10 just started double typing occasionally the letters a and o. In spite of this I say roll the dice and just get the Q10. Better keyboard, better camera, removable battery, superior battery longevity, more compact, better styling.

    I am biased and I never tried a Q10 but I say get a Q5. I bought one for my parents and liked it so much I bought myself one. Great battery life. Both were $150 with no contract.

    Ya...the Q5 is plasticky (get a case to cover it up), has less storage, lower camera quality, slightly slower processer than the Q10, but it is considerably less expensive when I purchased my Q5 and as far as I know, the Q5 does not have the double typing issue.

    Having said that, if the prices are similar (like they are on shop blackberry where the Q5 is overpriced in my opinion) go for the Q10.

    Prefer the keyboard on my Q5, as it gives more feedback and I can use the tic tacs without having to keep my nails trimmed super well.

    Prefer everything else about the Q10: battery life, build quality, screen, the feel of the rubberized glass weave...

    No double-typing on my Q5 though, since the keyboard isn't glued down, there's no glue for dust to get trapped in. It's just much louder/clickier which is a turn off for some people but I prefer it.

    If I could go back I'd have just gotten a Q10 when I switched to Wind, but I was curious about the Q5 and that got the best of me.
