- Is this really mean that bbry is not gonna catch up the 1080p resolution and once again leaving their stuff behind the up to date smartphones?
Posted via CB1007-07-13 11:39 PMLike 0 - Since they're trying to release the A10 this year, you can bet that it will be 720p and that BB will try to sell it as a high end device. It doesn't stand a chance against something like the G2, but they will still try...07-08-13 04:59 AMLike 0
- Maybe people should wait until BlackBerry have released the phone before critising or judging how well it will do????

There's just a growing segment that is tired of saying each new phone is "...the best BlackBerry to date" to justify that it isn't even in the same league as current top end smartphones.
Even Windows Phone is going to support higher resolutions in the next update and part of what's held Windows Phone back to date is the tight hardware restrictions that have led to it staying behind the pack in the high end.
We all want BlackBerry to make a comeback, but going slower then the competition and repeating other platforms mistakes about hardware are not likely to make as Frank put it (paraphrasing) 'the greatest comeback in Tech history"07-08-13 06:08 AMLike 0 - Sith_ApprenticeMod Team Emeritusiphone 5

- Not if you force your future device apps to be portrait only. And I force my Z10 apps to be portrait only and pad the sides of my apps with 24 pixels as instructed by BB developer documentation. Then it makes development simple.07-08-13 11:42 AMLike 0
- Is this still being debated?
The resolutions have been set BBJAM started rolling out. that was the time of the Dev Alpha A. time to move on guys. if 1080p was being supported in any timeframe, Dev Relations would update the site and inform devs of the upcoming change MONTHS in advance07-08-13 11:52 AMLike 0 - It won't have 1080p. Get over it. As long as the ppi are sufficient, no one is going to complain. Most people don't know the resolution of their phone anyway. Just market it as HD and they won't care.07-08-13 12:10 PMLike 0

Ya ya 1280p.. end of the day, I want a device that is performant, that also has the apps that I use and has good battery life. I don't want some overly gimmicky android that sells only due to their ridiculous specs. As a developer, I know that the architecture of the system allows for regular normal spec'd devices to still perform as well as those crazy spec'd androids.

There is last years leak of specs and this years. This years is updated to a Snapdragon 600 or 800 series chip 4gb of ram and 1080 screen. The screen isnt a big deal as people can't tell the difference with the naked eye on smartphone size screen.07-08-13 01:45 PMLike 0 - I suppose it is a 'checkbox' item, but I kind of view this like people getting all hot and bothered about the number of megapixels in their camera and then only post photos to Facebook ... or people that crow about their bajillion core processor phone but can't produce an app that makes use of the cores to demonstrate the next wave in computing.07-08-13 01:51 PMLike 0
