    I'm a BlackBerry user of old.
    Got fed up by the unreliability of the handsets.
    Moved to iPhone and everything just worked.

    Came back to BlackBerry with the Z10. Didn't like it. Dreadful battery. Have the Q10. So much to love. Amazing keyboard,great operating system. Really happy even though many core apps were not available which did annoy ie banking, proper shift calendars for Fire Fighters etc.
    Then started to have keyboard issues, 2 Q10's later and have just discovered a very important app has now been dropped from BlackBerry World.
    I return to iPhone tomorrow. They just work. Get a new iPhone,everything syncs seemlesly from the iCloud. That Def doesn't happen with BlackBerry. Pictures and vids dissappear, contacts vanish etc.
    It's a sad day as I really like the Q10 and OS10.
    Lack of apps,unreliability,pain to set up new phone. And no I don't want to back up to a computer,have finally ended my relationship with BlackBerry. They were so close yet so far from getting it right. Don't flame me people I've tried to make it work for me and I'm sure BlackBerry will continue to improve but not quick enough for me. Yes it's a phone but too many apps are not supported for me. Good luck to all of you!

    It's he fortunate to hear that you don't understand that everything has its issues, even ios and even though you're on the Crackberry forums, you still haven't found the how to sideload apps thread.

    Don't know what you're talking about cause I get 16 hours on my Z10 with heavy use. My dad has had problems with the Q's keyboard as well.. enjoy ios

    Considering you only made 9 posts, gave little details (OS version etc.) and now post this? I have a Z10, Z10 LE, Q10 and Z30 and they all work great. I have learned out the best way to use them and get the most out of them. The devices have been rock solid.

    Of course it won't sync to the iCloud, but I have tried both Box and Dropbox and both do the same thing.

    Good luck.

    I was able to increase my battery drain problem. LTE coverage around here is spotty, so the radio is trying too hard to search and connect. I went back to HPSA. When I did that, I was about to get about a 60% increase in battery life. So you may want to try that and see if it is poor LTE coverage in your area.

    Good luck. My Q10 arrives today and I've used everything other than Windows Phone and nothing else will cut it. I'm excited to start using the Q, glad you are exited to use an iPhone. As long as we're all in a happy place.

    & you're on cb bashin' on a guy for not sideloading,,, some people don't want to sideload apps they think should already be available natively, or they're not technically inclined, not to mention the issues that sometimes accompany sideloads...

    Guys I don't want to side load apps, box and Drop box I already use.
    Yes I've only made 9 posts so?

    I think OS10 is great. Yes iPhone's have their own reliability issues too.

    I love the Q10 but have realised I need more from my phone app wise. 4 replacement phones in 8 months is too many for me.

    I will always keep an eye on BlackBerry and if more apps become available that I need then never say never.
    Yes the software will continue to improve and I will not bad mouth BlackBerry but it's not right for me at the moment. Thank you for the nice comments from most of you guys.

    @bitek. Get a life and grow up. So what if I go to iPhone. I never said they were perfect. Another d*ck head hiding behind a keyboard.
    Sorry if that offended any other forum members but it's as*holes like this that spoil it for all.
