    One thing I love about my white Z10 is that the bezel/glass is black. It makes the screen look visibly larger and I personally like the contrast between the black and the white.

    When I look at some photos of the white Q10, I can't help but think how the white bezel accentuates the small size of the LCD... especially when the screen is off. That got me thinking... what if the white Q10 had a black bezel like the white Z10???

    Here's a shot of what it would look like... thoughts???

    It looks good, but the black one is even better.

    I can see what you are saying, but wouldn't it be even better if the screen was *actually* bigger instead of just looking bigger?

    count me as one of those who wish the screen was taller vertically (maybe 3:4 aspect ratio)

    With the amoled display on the Q10 is almost a must to get the black one. The screen will fade into to border and look amazing.

    Try PhatomSkinz Carbon Fibre skins to change color as you see fit!

    Your idea is great, quite a difference with the black bezel.

    I disapprove, It's as duplicitous as those wonder bras.

    Maybe BlackBerry11 has a larger real screen for those who want it.

    I don't like the look it should be full white as it is, I wish the Z10 was all white.

    I think it should have a black bezel around the screen, but revert back to white at the top... like this:

    This is EXACTLY how it should be. Viewing media on a phone should simulate as closely to watching a movie at the theatre as possible. The screen is lit while everything else around it is black/dark. Which is why a black bezel makes absolute sense on a white phone.

    Yeah, i don't get why they didn't go that route (maybe for $ reasons?) It would have made for a better looking phone, matching the visual que of the white Z10 - aka "Stormtrooper"

    Both a aesthetically look good to me. However I see your point about having black bezel.

    Ya, you're right. That looks awesome and is totally what BlackBerry should have done with the Q10.

    that looks absolutely gorgeous, i thought the white version of the Q10 was fugly but the black accent without making the whole top black makes it look so much nicer than an all white screen. It matches the white Z10 that way too and the white Z10 is a thing of beauty

    Could we maybe use a black magic marker (very carefully) to create the black bezel? (smile)

    omg so much better. Thats one thing I never liked about my white 9900. like if you look at the white HTC one, one X and Z10 it looks sexier cause of the black border bezel.
