- I agree. I absolutely love the size of the Q10. It's one of the main reasons I choose to use it as my daily driver over a Z10 or Z30. I see that most concept designs seem to abandon the 1:1 aspect ratio of the screen in favor of something a bit longer. I wonder if they'll continue with the 1:1 ratio on future models or not? Wouldn't that mess up all the work developers have done to format their apps for the Q10's screens? They would have to rewrite another version of their apps for the new aspect ratio wouldn't they? Sorry if it's a silly question. I don't know anything about development.

- For those that want physical call and end buttons, care to tell me what good they are when you aren't on the phone?
They are wasted space. When you're on a call, they are there. For the legacy BBOS crowd, returning to the home screen or canceling out of an app is just a swipe away.
Posted via CB1002-11-14 12:50 AMLike 0 - Virtual Trackpad!!?? So we all have the option to have it on or off!? I'd be interested in that!
Posted via CB10 on my ? Q1002-11-14 10:45 AMLike 0 - Interesting, if true.
Here's the specs, in Italian mind you, but you should get the gist:
So, notable highlights to me are:
- QWERTY
- 2.3GHz quad-core proc
- 4" touchscreen, OLED, 1280x768
- 3GB RAM
- 16GB device storage
- BB10 OS 10.3
- Non-removable 3300 mAh battery
- 16MB main camera + 5MB front camera
- No wireless AC added
- CDMA not specified (might just be non-CDMA variant, obviously)
OLED, 1280x768?? Don't think so... and don't hope so... at least please FHD!!!

What they should do it put the trackpad on the back of the device to be used with the index finger. That would solve everything. No front real estate being used but it would work just as well.
Also they need a way to access the phone functions quickly if they aren't bringing the buttons back. Like you touch the screen and it wakes with quick options.

All touch and gestures is the only thing allowing them to stand out
If people want a track pad then go buy a 9900

It compliments the touch and gestures. It would also give the full touch phone a distinguishing hardware feature which is currently lacking. How is all touch allowing them to stand out anyway when that's every phone. This would allow them to stand out and they could even show text editing capabilities between it and the competition.
Posted via CB1002-15-14 08:03 PMLike 0 - You just proved why a trackpad is absolutely pointless. If the phone is a touchscreen, then say goodbye to the trackpad!
With respect to hardware features, the fact that you think that including a trackpad would distinguish it from the competition is very telling about your knowledge of technology and it's progression.

It absolutely does NOT compliment touch, as it becomes redundant and therefore pointless. And it definitely doesn't compliment the gestures; that's just a pure disaster.

I guess touch should have replaced a mouse and keyboard by now as well according to you with your immense knowledge of technology. When the next iPhone turns the home button into a trackpad which has been rumored i'll just laugh at you folks who can't see the big picture of what a professional device needs to be.

And guess what? Since you haven't been up to date with technology I'm here to let you know that touch has in fact been replacing a traditional mouse. Ever heard of the already old Apple magic mouse or Microsoft touch mouse? How about tablets? This duel does not arise with the trackpad vs touch screen argument; instead we should be discussing the way touch curosors respond and interact with the user's finger. That is an area that has room for improvement. And the "Running Shift" feature recently incorporated in BlackBerry 10.2 is a step in the right direction. Touch is currently the present and foreseeable future, until something better comes along. It's time to move on and adapt.
Posted via CB1002-17-14 01:36 AMLike 0 - Go grab a subpar BlackBerry 7 device then, it will suit you well. Or an iPhone with a trackpad when it gets released.

Yeah i'm sure businesses are just going to throw out mice and keyboards and see productivity plummet for most office tasks. You nailed it.
Posted via CB1002-17-14 12:56 PMLike 0 - I am thinking the Q30 must be a Torch replacement slider as the Q20 would share too many features with it otherwise. If I'm right they should send me a free one lol. Hmmm wait and wait or use my upgrade on a LG G3 next month?05-30-14 11:30 AMLike 0
- Um, because physical buttons for picking up and hang up is the biggest thing I'm waiting for. I hate how if you're on a phone call and you use speakerphone, after a while the screen will go off, and you'll need to wake the screen back up or even unlock your device if you have a p/w, just to end the call. And even worse, if you navigated away from the call app during the call, now you have to do all that, then navigate back to the phone app, then touch the end call icon. I like it a lot more with a physical end call button so no matter what, if I need to hang up right away, I can just press the button, without ever looking at the phone, I know 100% the call is ended... A "virtual" toolbelt would completely defeat that purpose, it'll be exactly the way it is now...SK122387 likes this.06-04-14 12:05 AMLike 1
- Some of the latest Android phones ship with 3Gb of RAM yet still have 4.0 or 4.1 installed
As far as I can tell (I could be wrong), no mobile OS needs 3Gb of RAM (yet) but will run smoother with more.
Unlike a 64bit desktop OS where 4Gb is the recommended minimum.

Q10, Q5, Z30... Damn I love leaks too much!06-04-14 02:04 PMLike 0 - I wanted the Z10 badly but Sprint wouldn't carry it so I bought a Samsung for my media needs, etc. I reluctantly upgraded to the q10 and my only regret is that I didn't do it sooner.
