My Weekend with the BB Z10 (T-Mobile USA)

**Trini-34** · 03-18-2013, 07:59 AM

Let me start off by saying WOW...
I received the Z10 last Friday 15th from T-Mobile (business) and the experience was awesome! What a difference, the device is super fast, very light, beautiful screen, excellent battery life and a great selections of apps to keep me entertained (business and games). Now with that being said; I did experience a strange reboot on my wife's phone (yes I had to get one for her). The battery life was at 80% and when we check it, it was powered off (I am not sure why). Other than that everything was great. Now for you netflix lovers, I was able to go online and watch movies and TV shows for free (just google it and you will see tons of them, Movie2K, Free-Tv-project, etc). This my $0.02 my experience!!!
Likes:
1. Downloads apps faster than my BB-PlayBook
2. Super fast processor
3. When you reboot the device and it powers up it ask you why did you remove the battery? (I really like that)
4. Light and beautiful screen
5. The best browser experience (super fast)
6. The F-ing keyboard... wow
7. I really like the apps selections in the BlackBerry World along with the movies and music
8. Time shift on the camera but the quality is not that great (but it's workable)
9. BBM screen share and file share
10. NFC

What apps I will like to see:

1. Banking apps (B.O.A, CapitalOne, NavyFed, etc...)

I love mine too, I have written "My First 12 Days with the z10 on T-Mobile USA'. Did you get yours through through T-Mobile Business or did you buy and unlock THEM as I did.

I dont know where you can look on the phone ( I don't have a Z10 yet)

It should be on the box somewhere. My guess if it was on the phone it would be under the battery?

Thanks again...

I got it through T-Mobile business...

**Trini-34** · 03-18-2013, 09:15 AM

I am sorry, but I left the box at home. I am at work now, I can update this post when I get home this afternoon.

If you could check under the battery that might have the model number listed there... If you can, if you can't I guess we'll wait on the edge of our seats until you get back home.

**jaffa21** · 03-18-2013, 09:30 AM

why does the model number matter?

It is to check the frequency compatibility

Ok that's what I assumed but just wanted to be sure.

Thanks!

3. When you reboot the device and it powers up it ask you why did you remove the battery? (I really like that)

What did you mean by this?? I didn't encounter this on my Z10 (STL100-2)

Awesome thanks for this! AT&T is deploying the RFF91, the RFK121 can do everything the RFF91 does plus the AWS bands.

When I first set upmy device it asked me if I want to send information to RIM (BB) and I said yes. So everytime I remove my battery ii ask me if there was a problem.

I am waiting patiently to upgrade my Iphone 4s to BB Z10 but unfortunately, I have to wait two more months before my Iphone 4s contract expire. ):

**damthrill** · 03-18-2013, 11:14 AM

sometimes you can do an early upgrade for a little bit of extra money, don't know till u ask.

**dperry360** · 03-18-2013, 11:52 AM

This is a nice reassuring post. I'm simply counting the days feverishly until I'm able to walk in and pick mine up from T-mobile since they still haven't released any information to the masses.

**DatBoyHam** · 03-18-2013, 12:02 PM

I wish mine would have arrived on Friday... So ready for tomorrow for mine to get here

**Blackberry_Bonez** · 03-18-2013, 12:04 PM

T-Mobile is killing us, no solid date announced for us Magenta users, damnit man glad you're enjoying it, I've been itching to get my hands on one just to try
