    I've just ordered my self a z30, it will arrive on thursday, I'm coming from a z10 which has been an excellent phone I just can't stand the battery life, is the z30 really a good buy for 2015 standards and what makes it better than the z10, as users of the z30 your knowledge of the phone would be a great help.

    Z30 is a great device. You're gonna love it from day one.

    Try to do a bit search and you'll find a lot of threads already discussing about Z30 vs Z10 vs Leap. You'll probably find your answers there.

    Anyway, welcome to the club Z30.

    My transition from Z10 to Z30 was a real wonder. Increased screen size and greater batter life make the Z30 a joy to own. My plans for the future include a Z30 for a very long time. There is nothing on the horizon that makes me consider another device.

    Well, you obviously like BB10 and the Hub as much as we do. There are other features on other platforms that sound good like HD screens, edge to edge displays, quad core processors, use any carrier, etc. but I still like the Z30. Battery life should be great as it is for me. I might take a look at the Slider when it comes out just for curiosity.

    You made the right choice. I love my Z10. It has the perfect form factor but once my Z30 arrived I realized they were able to fit the larger screen into a very manageable form factor. When you hold your Z30 you'll see what I mean. The extra screen real estate and longer batter make it a worthy upgrade to the Z10.

    Enjoy you new device.

    The Z30 is a great phone, the only drawback is the screen is hard to view in sunlight, other than that yes it's a great phone. Make sure your on a good network, with good coverage, or you will have call reception problems. I was using Wind Mobile and was experiencing dropped calls, I thought it was a problem with the phone. When i switched to Rogers (chatr), the call reception vastly improved and now i can almost get a signal, inside an elevator. To all you people who say they are having issues with call reception on the Z30, no it's not the phone its the carrier network! Anyway as long as you keep those two things i mentioned in mind you will have a great experience with the Z30. BTW see if you can get a white version "it's so classy"

    I never had another phone before and realized an opportunity when this went on sale around last Christmas. I had been researching for the last couple of years and had even bought a Note Pro 12.2 for Mrs.

    Even so, I jumped on the Z30 and have found it to be the most tremendous, functional machine I've ever had the pleasure to use.

    It's my office. Full stop.

    I originally had the Z10 when it first came out... then later upgraded to the Z30.
    Definitely an amazing machine!!!
    The battery life, screen size, amazing speakers, superior antenna, built in FM radio.
    I never had any issues regarding the screen brightness... Sure it's not as bright as the Z10, but you'll eventually get used to the deep blacks and rich colours on the super AMOLED screen and not look back.

    You'll love the Z30, congrats on the upgrade!

    Congrats! The Z30 was the very first BB10 phone I ever owned. Since then I've sold it and owned a Z10, Q5, and Q10. All great devices, but the Z30 holds a special place of honor for me.

    In fact, I took advantage of the recent sale on ShopBlackBerry and ordered a new Z30 once again. So I'm coming full circle.

    I'm looking forward to the sleek style, large screen, excellent performance, and long battery life. And being able to run Android apps in a common aspect ratio will be nice.

    Enjoy your new phone!

    I just did the same thing. Retired the z10. Day 4 of running the z30: no regrets. It's a fantastic device that has exceeded all expectations , especially with 10.3.2

    Oh the unboxing experience! I remember when my buddy who works for BlackBerry walked on over to my place and handed me my white Z30, I was super excited.

    Congrats on getting thus far one of the best BlackBerry models I've ever come to own. It's a real shame, it's existence has been overshadowed by the company's poor market reputation.

    Look! It's Zedzilla30!

    I had tested driven BB10 on a Z10 and loved the OS, but the battery life was not up to snuff. I ended up with a choice of getting a Z30 through work and have been pleasantly surprised with the battery life. I am constantly using my phone and I get a solid 6 AM To 10 PM of use. I don't have the jitters about running out of my battery. The speakers are the best I have heard on a phone, the VKB is second to none. If the Z30 came with Google Play Store out of the box, it would be a perfect all round device.

    Thankfully, Cobalt has done the heavy lifting to make that a reality.
