    I bought my Z10 in April when it released and have noticed since the release of the Q10, BlackBerry seems to have put much more emphasis on the Q10 then the Z10 and not just with advertising. There seems to be more accessories offered among many other things and it's starting to make me wonder if I made the right decision. Where's the love for the Z10??

    Yes the Q10 is outshining the Z10 in my house. My wife has had the Z10 for a couple of months; I bought the Q10 a few days ago. My wife has played with my Q10 a bit and she loves the feel of it, she loves the look of the Q10; she wants the Q10 now! After 3 days with my Q10 I am loving it!!

    Let's hope so. I just came from the AT&T store - SWMBO wanted the new S4. While there I asked the manager how BlackBerry sales were going and he told me that they are dead. He did say that he sold a 9900 the other day.

    I hope the Q10 gets here soon.

    Yes, then the rumored Aristo will come and outshine blah blah...

    It's how the digital gadget scene works.

    The BlackBerry brand was built on the keyboard. It's what everyone thinks of first and the main reason people held on to their blackberries.

    There is more interest in the Q10. The Q10 will out sell the Z10.

    Unfortunately, yes. The Z10 is out shining it but I don't think even BlackBerry expected that at first. I'm not so concerned with BlackBerry emphasising it above the Z10 as I am CrackBerry doing it. I get sick of hearing about the Q10 in CrackBerry blogs sometimes.

    Sure the Q is out shining the Z. It's a way better phone with not as many issues. I've got both one for personal and one for business. They both got there up's and downs but to be able to type without errors and fast the Q demolishes the Z.

    A friend of mine returned his Z10 and bought the Q10 last week. Said the battery life on the Q10 is about 50% better than the Z10. Says it's more comfortable in the hand than the Z10. Says he's glad he switched.

    I strongly disagree. I have tried both phones, and found that once you get used to the Z10 keyboard (and let it get used to you) you can type significantly faster without errors on the Z10 than the Q10 due to the predictive text and auto correction on the Z10.

    I think there are more BlackBerry people waiting for q10. I know 4 or 5 personally. It is the classic BlackBerry design I get it.

    I'm sticking proud with my Z10!!!

    If the q10 is outshining the z10 then I'm not hugely surprised. I do really like my z10 though.

    The all-touch segment of the market is saturated with phones, with Apple and Samsung taking the lion's share of mind share, with HTC skulking around in the periphery. The z10 is a great device, but BlackBerry is known for its qwerty keyboard (heck, the name BlackBerry is because the keyboard on its phones make it resemble a blackberry), so there might be people who really miss that Form factor, and it stands to reason that attention be focused on the model that is unique.

    I don't regret my purchase. Fk what the public perception thinks. I love the Z in every way, shape, and form. Gorgeous device. Beautiful screen. Amazing keyboard. Huge screen real estate.

    WHAT MORE COULD YOU WANT?

    Z10 is an awesome phone and I am happy to have it. I really liked the Skype keyboard on my MyTouch but now I don't even think about it in comparison to the Z10 keyboard. I will probably never go back to a physical keyboard.

    I had the classic blackberry keyboard before the Z10 and I find I type faster on my Z than I used to on my bold, I also love the bigger screen.

    The Q10 is the quintessential BlackBerry QWERTY phone. You have to expect it to get more attention. Doesn't make the Z10 any less awesome in my book.

    I think its also personal preference. I prefer the touch screen so the z is pefect for me.

    Also I assume BB used feedback from Z's customers to tweak some aspects of Q, not to mention that Q was released much after the Z so BB and developers had mor time for apps etc.

    You bring up some good points. BlackBerry is known for it's physical keyboard and the majority of the BlackBerry community has been waiting for just that, so that explains most of it.
