BB 10 L-series in white spotted in the wild

I was at my children's Xmas concert in Waterloo today and spotted a RIM employee using their white BB10 L-series for some photo/video taking. Looks quite nice with the contrasting white top and bottom with the large black screen area. The image resolution looked quite crisp and screen size larger than it is perceived in images and video online. Comparing it to the iPhone 5, the iPhone looks too narrow and not poportional relative to the BB. Can't wait to get rid of my BB9800 and score a new BB10 in February/March. I took some pictures of the device in use, but the camera on my 9800 didn't do the device justice. They would look like your typical blurry spy shots.

Pics or BS lol

Seconded lol

Even blurry pics will do!

Pics buddy!

It's no that we don't trust you... its that a pic would make it easier to believe it LOL

No pics, no real

blurry pics - blurry pics -blurry pics!

my wife will like this news....she buys phones based on if you can get it in white LOL

White BB10 in all it's blurry glory!

Aristo... methinks

It's not hard to find one around Waterloo (I live here, I would know... :P), but I have not seen a white one yet.

OP delivered. Looks good in white, I'll need it in black because I'm in a dirty line of work.

By the way, what's with such crappy picture quality? I had a 9800, now I have the 9810, both take amazing pictures.

I'm surprised Thorsten isn't getting pink slips ready for employees being that stupid ...

Well, my Nikon SLR takes amazing pictures as well! Do you think your 9810 amazing is comparable to my SLR amazing?
Like I said I was at a kids Xmas concert standing Directly behind the phone user with the zoom on my 9800 on max. Should I have asked the user to hold the phone still and a little closer for me. :-)

Here it is cleaned up a bit:

Interesting. not getting it in white because of yellowing, but nice to know for those that love white phones that it'll be there.

haha I like how everyone was hounding the OP for pics and for once someone who "sees" an upcoming device "in the wild" actually has pictures!!

They might not be the clearest, but we can definitely tell that it's white. I kind of want a white one now...

Those hands are of one that does zero manual labor. Definitely a RIM employee ;) looks good to me. Now if we could only get a pic of the L series with a color never before seen on a BlackBerry.

I've always wanted a white one and was rather hoping that different colours at launch might be one of the 'surprises'! Seeing those flip cases mentioned in another thread earlier in black, white and red - and now these pics - makes me think this might be a possibility now. Thanks OP!

we need this now!!

It's not news that a white version is coming. I remember the source I first heard this from (forget if it was a journalist that was shown it or someone internal that showed it to someone or a hedge fund tool). Anyway, the quote I remember is that it looks way better than the white iPhone. But the black BB10 does not look as nice as the iPhone.

FWIW: I want the white one just so people ask if I got a new iPhone and I can say no and entire a dialog.

I wonder if they can make the bezel white as well. Would that be too much white?

Nice. Here's to hoping it comes in red

Red, white, green, yellow. Whatever, as long as we can buy it.
