    Hey, for those that got a z10 at release but now have a q10, how do you like it?

    My biggest beef with the z is the battery.
    Is the q10 a lot better? Did small screen bug you?

    I should add that I got a q10 for my wife so I have had a chance to play with it. Just not a chance to use it as my main device

    Just got my Que this past weekend. Was waiting for every for Telus to release the white one. I absolutely love it. The feel, the weight and keyboard. Its all fantastic. I can now spend more time typing and less time back spacing or correcting. Feels better then my 9900 did. I do miss the larger screen of the ZED, but I am adapting and after a day or so, your eyes and brain get used to the smaller screen. Its all up from here and only going to get better. 10.2 will kick azz and yea.... very happy with my Q10. The ZED is now in the drawer, Zzzz'n and on stand by if I should ever need to switch back. But I don't see that happening.

    I got the Z10 when it came out, then got the Q10 when it came out too. At first, it was kind of weird typing on the Q10 after using a virtual keyboard for months, but then I got used to it again. The Q10 is my favorite because it's the style I've known for like 7 years now, and I like the small screen. But every couple of days, I put my sim card in my Z10 and use it for the day or a couple days, I still love the Z10 too.

    The battery on the Q10 is much better than the Z10. Some games are only for the Z10 because of the screen, but that's ok. The Q10 is the best BlackBerry to me, and while I'm almost perfect on the Z10 keyboard, there is no substitute for a real keyboard, which the Q10 has the best of.

    Former Z user. I only got that phone because I was waiting for the Q and really wanted to try BB10. The Z was great, but I prefer the Q.

    If you use your phone primarily for communication, the Q10 beats the Z10 hands down. The Q10 does what I need it to do, quickly and efficiently.
    I loved my Z10, but my Q10 has me back in the sweet spot!

    I don't play games so I don't think that is a problem.

    I do occasionally watch baseball on my phone but more often I listen, if I could watch I would use my laptop or TV.

    I'm ok with the z10 keyboard, but still not as accurate as the physical keyboard.

    I am tired of only getting through the day about 2 thirds of the time on the z.

    I got both and had them since release day. I like the Q-10 way more but z-10 is way better for web browsing less scrolling around the screen..

    I had the Z10 two weeks after launch in Canada then recently got the Q10. It took a day or two to get used to the smaller screen size but honestly it's not that bad anymore. The keyboard hands down beats any downsides to the smaller screen.

    Like someone mentioned earlier, I don't have to worry so much about making errors. This is the best keyboard to date.

    Battery life is better than the Z. I unplug daily at 6am and gets me thru to the early evening with 30-40% left. BT on all day with bbm, twitter, CB, facebook, texts and whatsapp.

    I love it. Had the z10 since caada launch and it took me two visits to the tmobile store to convince myself. And i have absolutely zero regrets. The battery life is above average (not great but hey its an actual smartphone.. sorry BlackBerry 7) and the keyboard is great. So nice to have keys again and i thought the 9900 keyboard trumped this one but after a week or so it's been awesome.

    Thumbly posted from my Q10

    Well, I like the big screen of the Z but prefer the physical KB on the Q. The small screen could be better laid out really but is generally very good and poses no real problems.

    The battery life on the Q is, for me at least, much better than that of the Z, although I'm not sure if this is completely down to the bigger battery in the Q.

    In all, not disappointed, no. I rather like it!

    According to lots of Blackberry users, They are actually not happy with their Z10 Handset, Most user would like to switch Z10 as soon as possible. Blackberry Q10 is better than Z10.

    I had the Z10 and it was nice but the physical keyboard on the Q10 got me! I find the Q10 easier to navigate and a faster device all around. As far as battery life goes I can get 8 full hours with heavy use with ease.
