Went from the Z10 to the Z30 a couple of months ago. Really happy with the Z30

[Ment]

The price has gone down so much its a no-brainer if you want a full-touch BB10 phone. Get 'em while you still can.

nice phote with tons of great ideas, but it is outdated IMO. Dont pay more than $200.00 for this one.

Interestingly enough, Verizon is still selling the z30 for $200 on contract.

I broke mine a couple weeks ago and bought another without hesitation

[Bumppa]

I'm a Passport user who gave my Z30 to my son. Had a chance to handle it again, after he dropped it in the fishing pond. It is being repaired. I can tell you I really miss it. If BlackBerry has another sale I will buy one. I love the form. It performed perfectly. I was just lured by the physical keyboard.

just upgraded from z10 2 days ago. running the latest 10.3.1 leak(had 10.3.2 on my z10). Enjoying this beast of a device and its still not fully optimised yet. I am still a one hand user so i hope to find a thin sleeve for it.

Great phone in every way except camera is way outdated.

It's a BlackBerry Z30 on Big Red and still on 10.2.1

[anon(153966)]

I say yes. I'm looking for one myself, even though I have a BlackBerry Passport...

[XORO]

Yes, despite being outdated, but compared to its current price & capabilities , it's worth it. Just picked One week ago, & regardless some disappointing issues, its excellent.

It may not be an s6 camera, but a tool is only as good as its user...

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.

Yes, the Z30 is a good value right now, particularly if you're using it primarily for communications. With my Verizon Z30 I've gone forth between Verizon and at&t. For me, the former gets better coverage, which is why I'm back in it. When I had the at&t SIM card in there, I got LTE through the device's Band 4 LTE band, which is strong in the Chicagoland area where I live. One other great thing about the VZW Z30 in particular is the Qi wireless charging out of the box.

Check the OS Leak Subforum. You could either find an Autoloader that you prefer or grab Sachesi (discussed in a sticky in that thread) and load a new OS. BBLink is still not the best but it can work!

The Verizon model is the only one that supports wireless (qi) charging.

[baspeed]

The user has nothing to do with the quality of the z30 camera when it comes to low light pics and speed. I have two friends who have z30 both say same thing that the three year old z10 has better camera. Everyone who had a z10 knows this to be true.

Z30 is the most underrated all touch device available. For the price it is a no brainer. I have a Z10 and Passport as well. Get the Camera ++ app and the focal ability improves. I have taken some exceptional photos with my Z30. Form factor of the Z30 is close to ideal and VKB with predictive flick typing is, well, amazing.

Z30-simply the best touch screen BlackBerry

[BB_Santa]

I will definitely buy one but it reminds me of how my previous one went away from me But if at all prices comes little lower like how a Z10 did many months later, might go for it, after all its the all time best full touch mobile not only in BB but across other companies as well.
Still saving money and checking on Passport though for price to drop!

that's weird the Verizon is the only one with QI that seems like it should have been across the board on their phones.

I don't know what deals BB and carriers work out for a unique offering. AT&T went for rounded corners on the Passport (which is not even available on Verizon).

[TgeekB]

I agree with others who say for the price it is a very good buy. I hope Chen continues the higher spec all touch line at least every couple of years.

Z30something

[hdbulldog4]

Just jumped off the fence and ordered my new Z30 from the link provided here for $225.

[bh7171]

It's insane how good a value the Z30 is at such low prices. I am running the latest official 10.3.1 on ours with T-Mobile and 4G LTE and this device is amazing. (and have been reading how much better 10.3.2.680 is on the device) Cheers on your purchase. You just bought one hell of a mobile smartphone. *I do recommend Camara ++ as an app purchase. It improves the focal ability. And allows me some great shots.

[RexdaleNap]

Yes best touch screen and best phone overall after Passport. Note Have not tried classic though

[Avenzuno]

Yeah, tell me about it. And BlackBerry and/or AT&T never did release the 100-1 Z30. BlackBerry missed so many opportunities by not releasing a complete set of Z30 versions at the same time, and dragging their feet on upgrades from 10.2.1. It's good to hear that at least the Leap apparently covers all LTE bands. But the consumer market is a lost cause because the enterprise-friendly specs of the Leap won't interest those consumers obsessed with hardware specs.
