BlackBerry Z10 review | Expert Reviews

Four out of five stars. Just posting the link to share. A fair, unbiased article, imo. One paragraph jumped out in light of the occasional complaint on the forum about viewing in sunlight and a comment on battery:

The screen is also seriously bright, and we had no problems reading it outdoors, even at medium brightness. The screen's high brightness didn’t seem to impact its performance in our video playback benchmark, though, where the phone managed a huge 13h 59m.

EDIT: They did get one thing wrong though, I think I'll email them:

However, we struggled to make the Z10 into an effective media player. The music and video playback apps are fine, but unlike with Android and Windows Phone 8 (but not 7) you can’t just drag and drop music and video files onto the phone's storage in Windows. Instead, you have to install BlackBerry Link on your PC, and use that to copy across music. At first the application refused to copy any music files across, but after an uninstall, a failed reinstall, a restart and another reinstall, we got it to work. It's almost as fiddly as iTunes, and we wish manufacturers would just get rid of desktop synchronisation applications entirely.

That's completely incorrect!
