Yup, I got a couple of 'droids to go full time for a few weeks. Oddly enough, it took a LONG time to find the apps that were as good quality on BB10 (easy to use, same functionality and no ads).
Then I realized, hey I just sort of replicated my Z10 experience but with worse radio reception and I didn't get any real advantages so they go back in the drawer and the Z10 comes back out...
After wrecking my Keyone, I'm using my old Z10. First off, it's reception is worlds better than the Keyone. It is also very nice not having the distractions from all the nonsense apps.
Lastly, I really prefer BB10 over Android.

True about the reception, as sometimes have had problems getting signal on Dtek50, yet never had a problem on Z10, (and yes, both are on the same network, and have also tried with other network sims in both, and Z10 ALWAYS seems to have a better signal!!)
Also prefer BB10 to Android, as BB10 just seems to run so effortlessly and seamlessly compared to BB'droid.

Same, the 5 or so apps I use from BlackBerry World do not have good android versions.
Z10 is still my daily driver. I fix the quirks and keep going. Except for bigger screen and better camera nothing can keep up with this. Side loading android apps becomes more difficult each day and I would love to have android APKs for TV like Kodi and mobdro. No new phones have hdmi connections either. I know my time is short with the Z10, but it's been a great old friend.

I have thought about it. I really miss the OS, size and swappable battery. I do like being able to use the apps my children's school uses to communicate. Maybe for the summer!

Check the internet for bookmarlets to do whatever you are trying to do. If they mention safari mobile or firefox they will likely work well. Keep in mind some will connect to someones page or server so use them at your own risk.

I prefer the screen size of the Z10. One-handed operation of the larger screen Priv is sometimes awkward and dangerous for potential of dropping it. Also, there are many pants I wear that I can't bend down to pick something up or tie my shoes when the Priv is in my front pocket. These are just regular fitting pants; nothing tight.
My wife and I are going on 5 years now with our Z10's. We thought we were the only ones. People think we're crazy for considering upgrading to another Blackberry, but I can't imagine other phones lasting this long. I wish I could use more Google apps on it, but in the end, it's kept me from getting too obsessed with my phone
So awesome to see all of this BB10 / Z10 love....the masses think that I'm crazy for still using this phone but they don't understand what is it to have the HUB or the word flick-type feature or the swipe gestures.....makes you want to built your own BB10 runtime or simulator for these new Droid-berries ...every time I think of switching from my Z10 I find myself clinching on to it tighter lol...#BB10 forever...well till DEC 2019 lol
I still have 4 of them. they work great but with the recent os updates and the Siriusxm updates, my Sirius and audiobooks have stopped working. still working on a solution
