    Had a Z30, great phone but the size of it was just too big for my liking. I just picked up a used black Q10 and man is it nice to be back on a keyboard!! Form factor is so much better and BlackBerry 10 is amazing on this phone.

    Was tempted to wait until the Q20 but at $200 I couldn't pass it up. Great job BlackBerry!

    Nicely done. Curious, did you try the Z10, too?

    I want a Z30, but worried about the size, too.

    Had a galaxy s3 and then moto x, both still too big. Q10 is perfect size for me. I think it's comical they make a 4.3 screen now and call it a mini. For who, Andre the giant?

    Welcome back! Excellent decision.

    It's just the right size, and of course, the keyboard rocks.

    I picked up a used Q also. Like the form factor but still learning my way around the OS.

    Also for me the z30 is too big, it's not a pure BlackBerry feeling
    The q10 does his job really good.

    Never had a Z10, but after my Z30 experience, I knew that the Q10 was the phone for me. I prefer the smaller size, and have a new Nexus 7 tablet if I feel like watching movies or doing some youtube watching

    I could type all day on this keyboard. Not to say the Z30 keyboard was bad, I just prefer the tactile feel that only a qwerty BlackBerry device can offer

    A little trial and error! Being a bit of a phone junkie doesn't help either...

    Sorry - sold the Z30 to fund the purchase of the Q10! I see them pretty frequently in the GTA around the $400 mark.

    That's a nice combo, Q10 and Nexus 7.

    It is, and it sure beats carrying a phablet around! You get the best of both worlds.

    Glad to hear you're enjoying your new Q10! And the Q10/tablet combo is a great combo for sure.

    I'm happy to hear you are enjoying your Q10! I too have trouble with big devices (due to small hands) so I tend to shy away from large devices like the Z30 and Note 3 (though they're amazing...).

    I love the Q10. I read for months on here how bb10 was under rated and how good it was but didn't know if I should make the plunge from my Note 3 especially since I still use the 9930 for work. We'll I finally decided to do it and used my upgrade for the Q10 and couldn't be happier. The os is superb and the device is fantastic. I would like to see the belt return as I do like the the physical keys but the Q is awesome.

    Welcome back to the Q10 family. I too started with the Z10 because it was out first, now that I have the Q10 back I don't see myself using a full touch BlackBerry again.

    I only use it because I'm stuck on contract with it. It's a dumb phone always shuts off camera sucks with new update (very slow) pretty much useless. Blackberry should cut a deal with apple or Google play for apps that will be blackberry built. They should invest the money. At least they'll have a shot of not going bankrupt witch will probably happen soon as soon as everyone else (majority realized already) realizes you can get a 50 times better phone for half the price

    Why don't you find a used iphone and sell you Q10? I got $250.00 out of my last Q10 (switched from black to white) and then you can live your dream life with the phone you love. No one on this forum cares that you hate the Q10. It sounds like you would be much happier with an iphone or android device. Then you could surf and troll other forums rather than this one.

    I can certainly understand why people would want to combine a phone and tablet into one device, but I can't stand having to lug around a massive device ALL the time. The Q10 plus a tablet (I'm using the new Nexus 7, but would probably get the new iPad mini instead) to me is the ideal setup.
