    I an curious, but the main motivation of this post is that my wife is going to let me get either a q10 now or a z30 a few months after release when the price comes down. I'm in love with my z10 but can't decide between the q10 and the z30 and was thinking your answers to this question might help me.


    Thanks

    Well I don't have a Q10 though I thought about getting it for the dark theme and BlackBerry OG design.

    But by the time I considered doing that the A10 (now Z30) rumors started appearing and I soon forget about the Q10.

    I think I'll get a Curve 9320 to round out my BlackBerry collection as its design of black and grey should compliment the Z30.

    Sorry Q10. Once BBOS no longer is recognized/supported I'll get a BlackBerry OG phone. But not just yet.

    I have the Q and will upgrade to a 30 for the screen size and virtual keyboard. I've become accustomed typing on glass with my tablet.

    Of course you would, which is why I didn't ask that question. I wanted to know if you had to keep your z10 but could trade only your q10 for a z30 would you? So the end result would be you with a z10 and a z30.

    If you already had a z, would you still do it?

    I have a Q and absolutely happy with it and wouldn't trade it for the Z30, as if I desired a big screen I would got the Z10 in the first place and then had the debate of should I get the Z30 now which I would obviously attempt to do, but I dnt feel that way as the Q10 fulfills my needs and I dnt even feel that I need a massive screen.

    what is a "Z30"? Ok just saw demo pics...nice phone...it looks like a near identical to the note 2.

    Im waiting for the model like the z30 but with a slide out keyboard like the torch.

    I went from a Z10 to Q10 and wouldn't ever go back. I LOVE this phone, I would probably get the Q10 and sell the Z10 and save up for the Z30 if possible. That way you don't have multiple touch screens, I'd rather have the best of both worlds. Having never used the Z30, I can't say that I def wouldn't get it, but between the Z10 and Q10, there is no question in my eyes that the Q10 is the better phone.

    I'd keep the Z10. It's only going to get better in time, as more updates are released for it, such as 10.2. However, if you really want to move to a phone with a physical keyboard, then sell the Z and buy the Q. I wouldn't even bother with the Z30. Its only a Z10 with a bigger screen, and slightly better hardware.

    Same as this poster, got a Q10 and definitely not getting the Z30. I still have my Note 2 but it's gathering dust at the moment. Don't need a surfboard in my pocket and typing on this baby is just great. It fulfils all my needs.

    I've carried both, just sold my Z-10. For me it was all about the BlackBerry authenticity of the Q's physical keyboard. If that is not of SIGNIFICANT importance to you then go w either touchscreen version...based on your budget. As for the virtual keyboard, it is not only the best of any in the industry it is 'years' ahead of any competitor.

    Beyond that, the extra screen real estate of the Z-10 (and presumably the Z-30) makes the new OS as entertaining as it is functional.

    Aside from the KB the other reason I switched devices was that to me the Z-10 seemed of inferior build quality. Should the 30 address that issue, I may be going back to the VKB.

    Sticking with the Q10. I have a Z10 too but it's more for app testing purposes. The Q10 is my go to and my daily driver. The Z30 looks cool for those that like the big media centric phones. I prefer the smaller, more handheld phones. But good to see BlackBerry pleasing all types of users.

    Q10 for me.

    No, I would just keep the Z. Bigger isn't always better, imho.

    I have both the Q and the Z. Why would you want the Z30 if you already have the Z10? Just because of screen? In my view the Z30 does not offer that much added value.

    I'd go for the Q. I use the Q for a more professional use, at weekends I tend to use the Z10 as I find the bigger screen better for taking photos and watching videos.

    Just my two ?-cents.

    Why is your wife deciding what you can get?
    Maybe you should trade your wife for a new one.
    And for the phones I think you should sell the z10 and get a Q10 and a Z30

    To me it wouldn't make sense for someone who got the Q10 over the Z10 to trade it in for the Z30. The whole point of going with the Q10 is the physical kb. The Z30 isn't enough of a bump up in anything for me to switch. Besides I like the smaller form factor of the Q10.

    Went from Z to Q for the keyboard.
    Would never move to a full touch device again, unless there are no keyboarded phones with proper OSes that take advantage of the keyboard.
    Miss some of the games, but overall everything is better with a keyboard, even pics taken using a spacebar rather than a touchscreen.
