    Yes it is, just bought one myself a few weeks ago, excellent phone.

    Last update was the same as the PP and Classic, with 10.3.2 on its way in the future

    If you want an all touch BlackBerry 10, the Z30 is the best device you can get and as already stated the Z30 has received the same update that the Passport and Classic have.

    The only set back for the GSM version is no AT&T LTE depending on your area. As for the Verizon Z30 you can currently get a brand new unlocked no contract Verizon model for $229.

    The device is a steal for the price and is the best BlackBerry 10 only behind the Passport in my opinion. I use both daily.

    No. Not in the Verizon store. I had both the square Passport and the AT&T brand but went back to the Z30 because of the former factor and bulk.
    Here is price on Ebay for new one

    Yes, it's still a worthy buy. The device may already be nearing two years old, but I just got one a week ago. It's amazing how much it still performs compared to the devices coming out.

    The software will keep on coming, and for a long time too. Currently the best all-touch device that you can purchase from BlackBerry, and as mentioned above, insanely cheap for such quality, and relative to the competition.

    Initially, I wasn't so sure about getting an old device, but I won't be replacing this thing any time soon. Go ahead, pick one up. I recommend it for someone who actually wants to stick with an all-touch and BlackBerry 10.

    Here is another link for the Verizon model. Seems as though Verizon has offloaded a bunch of new Z30 s. I can verify this seller is legit and there are a few here that have purchased as well from this seller. If you order, you will receive the device in a Verizon box with a charger (devices are new)...

    I still believe that the Z30's a great option.
    It still competes with the other platforms and it's 2 years old.

    Lately I've been eyeing the Passport, but I live the full screen and form of the Z30. It s the perfect size for a phone.

    I load leaks. I just purchased a Z30 to replace my old one and ran the autoloader for 10.3.2.680. I backed up my Calendar, Remember, and Contacts with Backup Pro and saved them to my SD card. I loaded Apps from BlackBerry World and Snap. You can side load Snap with Sachesi. There are Stickies which can walk you through all this every step of the way.

    Nope. I bought a Passport and sold my Z30 which worked fantastic. Didn't like the Passport form factor and bought a cheap Z30. Put a new digitizer and screen on it (see thread - White Verizon Z30). It will last for a good long time. Yours will too!

    I was a bit sceptical about the Z30 before I switched from the Z10, but it's a fantastic phone. I've had it almost a month now, and I love it.

    My Good Brother....I just bought my 2nd Z30 after I messed up the SIM card tray of my 1st one. I have also been using a PP in the meantime and I like both for different reasons. I love.....absolutely LOVE the screen on the PP, but I can type faster on the Z30.

    I am enjoying both for different reasons, and heartily recommend the purchase of a Z30. It is a Media Beast, and I love the speed and sound.

    Even though the Z30 is considered to be "outdated ", I personally feel that it meets or exceeds any smartphone performance from either Android or Apple.

    Don't give it a second thought.

    Cheers,
    A Brother.

    That's too bad. This was a truly easy fix. 8 screws and one plug. Even I could do it!

    Z30 is a damn nice phone. Does everything I need. Mine was built just this year and I'll probably use it for a while. Z10 screen size was never a real fit for me and Passport has the screen but lacked the form factor of a Z30 which is ideal to my liking. I also like when people are like, "is that a BlackBerry, and when did they come out with that!?" then I tell them and let them play with it and they think it's really nice. Even though I like all the BB10 phones and others, I think Z30 is nicest to carry for screen size

    I couldn't agree more with all the comments on here. The Z30 is awesome, so good in fact I just purchased a second one. I go into stores all the time to see what's the latest, and I ALWAYS walk out feeling there is none I would rather have than my Z30. The phone is that good!!

    Absolutely. It is the best Blackberry ever made. The thing is a complete workhorse. Just this week I have used it to scan, print, or send almost 30-40 pages of documents
