What is the material of the back cover? The reason why I am asking is because I have access to a laser engraver and want to customize my phone. Also, what is the thickness of the back cover? I don't want to burn to deep and mess it up

The glass-weave and soft touch coating used on the back cover is exclusive to the BlackBerry Q10 and have been years in development. By forming the glass weave in to a 3D shape, we have made it incredibly strong. The soft touch finish makes the BlackBerry Q10 easy to hold and feels beautiful in your hand while minimizing fingerprints.

4.The design is meticulous, light and durable. The back plate on the BlackBerry Q10 is made of a unique glass-weave material that is lighter and stronger than plastic. The device is surrounded by a machined stainless steel frame with a durable black coating, which is designed to prevent the edges from chipping and keeps your BlackBerry Q10 looking good.

Nope.

The Black Z10 is just rubberized plastic while a white Z10 is glossy coated plastic.

You might be best off buying a spare back door and just testing it.

Yes indeed... the phones feel sturdy in hand and not flimsy like the Samsung phones!
BlackBerry has a premium feel...when held in hand

I knew you were asking about the Z10 back cover and was scratching my head with the Q10 response you got. Poster must not have realized what forum he was in.

My bad... didnt see what forum I was in...

I also didnt think that they would use different materials for the Z vs Q... *shrug* ... now u know, Q's back is a lill more fancy..
