    Any comparisons? Is there any feature that makes Z30 better?

    Since no one has done this, decided to be the first.

    Z30.... a better sound!?

    I've never try the new KEYone... and you?

    Most of all have no PKB on z30.

    That's what' make the Passport and KEYone a device with shortcuts capacities.

    The stereo is nice on the Z30, but the sound is better on the Passport.

    So disagree with this. I have both and imho find the Z30 to put out a richer sound not to mention louder.

    Both are simply different. Z30 price is a definitely better this day and I never use PKB on Z30. A better comparison would be Priv vs Keyone or Classic vs Keyone.

    A good question to ask in about couple months. After we see some longtime use reviews. I'm thinking of the battery difference too. Android is known for its power appetites..

    My device: Z30/STA 100-5/OS v.10.3.3.2205

    I agree if you feel the Z30 has a warmer sound. The Passport (SE in my case, although should be the same as OG) has more clarity to its sound. I've compared them quite a few times and in my observation, the Passport is louder. Testing with the exact same files by the way. Maybe I'll check out a dB meter on my Classic and then compare the two again for loudness.

    No need to compare. Which one you prefer? BlackBerry OS 10 or BlackBerry Android?

    This comparaison is so.... hum! Impossible!

    It is like compare a oldie very good patrol car to the newest SUV 7 passagers hybrid vehicule!
    The conclusion going nowhere.

    If you want to compare the z30 to something... you can compare it to the z10 the only relative this phone have. Or by extension to the dtek 60.

    The Passport has a more steady sound and it's louder and more clear.

    Diclaimer: Z30 is older and dropped to the floor more often. And the soundmeter is from BBW: Sound Meter by BerryBK (4-star rating).

    Finally back to this thread :-) Did a better more controlled comparison myself and you are correct. PPSE louder. May have been environment and relative location/placement at the time. Influenced by a music playoff against a sibling's Z30 and theirs just seemed noticably louder at the time.

    Firefox can, although neither Android or BB10 will let you play Youtube videos in the background anymore, unless you're viewing the desktop site.

    Just tried it on my BlackBerry 10 stock browser. It still plays videos on back ground with the mobile site.

    I think this is true. Also, even with lower resolution the Z30 screen is just gorgeous. I need to get one to replace my broken one.

    What OS version are you on? There are a few threads on Crackberry and Android Central about background playback no longer working for the mobile Youtube site.

    Z30 has better sound and call quality. Keyone has better pkb, but screen weaker and poor reception and some bands.
