    I think the Windermere/Q30 is a good looking device!-windermere-front-1000x1333.jpeg

    I think it looks strong, slick and good quality. Perhaps I am crazy, but I don't think it's nearly as ugly as people say it is.

    Also, my sister like the Lumia design for the 'hard right angle corners'. I heard people complaining about the corners being too angled.

    I only hope it changes, because everyone else says it's ugly, but for me, this is great!

    Ugly. Giant square brick in your pocket, if it can even fit in there. Ugh. I hate it so much.

    I think it looks really boring. I love the look of the Q10 Keyboard, the shape of these keys look very weird. Its a plain Jane phone. It just looks boring. On a positive note, the side bezels and bottom bezel seem quite thin which is a good thing. But thats it.... Again as much as I hope for further change, I highly doubt that this is far off from the final design, if not already final.

    I think it's just not photogenic, especially from those angles, with the hand grease marks, and the screen off.

    Plus, the unfamiliar geometry (square) and lack of similar scale (big) is throwing everyone off...

    Let's just wait until we get to hold one of these things...

    Is this for the consumer market or a more specialised (medical?) environment. We haven't heard anything official from BlackBerry have we?

    It's also good as a weapon, you can stab someone with those sharp corners!

    Windermere is a gorgeous and sexy looking device. I have seen it in person and these pictures don't do it justice. It feels powerful and commanding in the hand, kinda like the Bold 9000.

    I have been waiting for this device to come out for over a year.

    I'm pleading the 5th on this one. It just looks unfinished to me as it is. I hoping the final version has some redeeming qualities to it. Otherwise, the OS and specs has some compensating to do. ;-)

    It's hideous. If BlackBerry releases a phone that looks like that it better fetch sticks and bring you drinks or else they are going to be the laughing stock of the industry.

    I'm having a very hard time trying to like the design of it. I think it all comes down to what the keyboard can do that makes the huge square not so "square".

    Q10, Q5, Z30... Damn I love leaks too much!

    I think people are struggling with grasping the device's dimensions. With a 4.5" diagonal screen the screen is about 3.2" wide and tall. The PlayBook screen was 3.5" wide as is the Kindle's screen. The Galaxy S5's screen is 2.5" wide by contrast. This device is closer to an e-reader/tablet in a more portable form-factor.

    With bezels. Windermere is about 3.5" wide and 5" tall or the size of a typical passport booklet. Hold your passport in your hand and imagine a screen taking up 70% of that space. I think the size perspective is getting lost in those pictures as we naturally jump back to a Q10 schema and see an awkward blocky design versus what it actually is.

    Could you be a tad more specific ? I find your posts to be intriguing.

    I think the pictures show the device out of context. In real life I expect Q30 will look and feel smaller than we think and the build quality to be better than expected.

    I personally like the look and also assume this is not the final design anyways.

    The specs and keyboard have my interest and I do plan to get it once it becomes available.
