    Hi I'm currently on a z10, with 4500mah extended battery that can get me two days without charger.
    After hearing about the new z30 epp price of $250, I'm little tickled by it. So if the z30 stock becomes available again, I'm looking to sell the z10, battery and accessories and add less than $100 towards a z30.

    Questions:

    I've read different treads about z30's battery life, the cases are quite different.
    Some get barely a day and some can last 24 hours with no problem. Is this a hardware defect or OS settlement issue?

    I read some may have screen fracture (tiny lines across). Is this a small population?

    Main reason for me to upgrade is feeling the z10 speed is a little slow. Is the z30 much more fluid than z10? Is it worthy for this speed increment?

    Thanks for reading through this long thread.

    Hello. I switched from a Z10 to Z30 a few months ago and I have no regrets. I have no issues with the battery life, I get a full day of heavy usage (and I mean very heavy) and at night I am down to 40%.
    It is super fast for sure. The extra screen size is very useful.
    I suspect the varying battery life discussions would be due to certain installed android apps. I use the battery monitor to close unnecessary apps.
    No screen issues as well..knock on wood.
    I would recommend this phone to anyone.
    Hope this helps.

    I did it back in November last year and paid full pop for it.

    That's how much I believed in the product.

    Still feel the same.

    It's a great phone.

    Yes it's a BlackBerry. If you have something bad to say... speak to Easton!

    That employee price isn't coming back as they're not restocking. Nothing to see in this thread, move on.

    Just double check with whoever you were going to get the EPP through.

    I got mine last week with no issues but at that price they could go quick.

    I had the Z10, came off the charger at 8 AM and was typically around 30% by 6 PM. Z30 is around 55-65%

    I have a Z10 and a Z30. The Z30 is definitely faster. As for battery life I typically get about 20 hours, less if I play a lot of games.
