Posted via CB1006-17-13 01:03 PMLike 0 - The display is better than a 720p Pentile panel.
That's all that matters because BlackBerry wants to compete against these better 1080p displays with a 720p panel.
Do you understand that? BlackBerry is not Apple and also uses a bigger screen.
The only thing your links prove, is that one single phone with a "useless" 1080p display will sell more units than all of BlackBerry smartphones combined.
Posted via CB1006-17-13 01:04 PMLike 0 -
The newest Amoled tech is only deployed in high-end handsets.
And now guess what:
They all use 1080p now.
You should never underestimate the power of snake oil and imagination.
People hear 1080p, one of THE buzzwords in electronics for years and now associate it with phones.
This trend cannot be ignored.
And as was said before, the power consumption may be higher, but all of these devices have a better battery life than their predecessors.
The end user doesn't care about the fact how it was achieved as long as it works.

I am amazed how hard it must be to understand that BlackBerry competes in a global market/a global scale.
The competition outdoes BlackBerry either on Apps or Specs or both combined.
It would be easy to fix the part with the specs.
Posted via CB1006-17-13 02:45 PMLike 0 - And it would still be subpar, compared to BlackBerry's competition.

- Where are my 4k monitors?? It's sad that computer displays haven't advanced much to the point where 4k is the norm for a high end monitor <$100006-17-13 06:13 PMLike 0

Ex: a while back I got a 24" 1080p @60hz monitor. Not long after a 120hz model was released, and not long after that a 240hz model came out.
Ironically refresh rate is a useless and meaningless stat for LCD screens. The only real benefit you got from each new generation was that the previous models would get cheaper.

They're calling it a midrange phone...
Is it that hard for you to believe someone has 20/20 vision or holds the phone closer than 12 inches?? God forbid there's someone out there with both of those combined.06-17-13 08:47 PMLike 0 -
Couldn't give two ****s about resolution on a 5-8" screen, other things are much more important like ability to put apps on SD card.
Back in the day of 14" monitors 1024x768 was fantastic for pics and video.

And this is what I have been saying all along:
Either make the phone cheap, or use a 1080p panel.

If Motorola was able to release this phone, manufactured in the US, on every carrier, at a price that dramatically undercuts the current generation of superphones, the Moto X is absolutely something worth keeping an eye on. Motorola plans to officially announce this phone before the end of Summer, with an on shelf date shortly after.06-17-13 10:31 PMLike 0 - http://www.engadget.com/2013/06/18/tcl-idol-x-s950/
280$ for a phone with quad core and 1080p display...
I seriously do wonder how BlackBerry wants to justify a premium price tag on the A10...
Today we know that it was a big success.
Btw, that was sarcasm.
What I can say without sarcasm, is that Nokia will be the king of camera phones again.
Everything else out there that is not a pureview phone, will be a fisher price camera, compared to the new EOS flagship.

Amazing battery life is something the Droid Razr Maxx HD had, because it used a 3.3k mah battery on subpar specs.

Huawei just released their flagship phone the Ascend P6. It's only 720p.06-18-13 09:33 PMLike 0 - No. What is ridicilous is to implement a screen with a resolution (1080p) that is higher and indistinguishable from what is already more detailed from what the human eye can see. But I know, you are into marketing "features" that no one needs. Thanks

Better detail when zoomed into pictures and reading online/books.
You mean these quotes?

If the A10 has a quad core, 12MP camera, removable storage, 4GB RAM and 720p, and amazing battery life, it will be a winner.
I also bolded and italicized the part you need to focus on.
Makes all the difference buddy. Knowing BlackBerry, you really think they'll release their flagship with the same rumored PRICE as the Moto X?

Reading distance is 14 inches, you can't see any better.
You need to up your comprehension skills because they said for the PRICE. Key word PRICE. The word you need to focus on is in caps, once again: PRICE.

I repeated the same thing over and over again:
If BlackBerry uses a 720p display and makes the device cheap enough, there will be no problem at all.
But seeing the Q5 sold for 350 pounds and Q10 being in another league price wise, the A10 surely won't come in cheap.
And this is the whole problem.

And it costs 330$ off contract.
I'll take 10 A10 for that price.
If BlackBerry launches with that price, there will be no issue with using the cheaper 720p panel.

Reading distance is 14 inches, you can't see any better.
So you are saying that it isn't screen resolutions that sell, it's now price? Or is it another feature like battery life, or a 24MP camera? All I am hearing is that if the phone doesn't have 1080p, it will fail. I don't agree with your assessment.
When Nokia makes a 42mpx cameraphone, but uses a 720p screen, there is no problem with selling this phone for a premium price tag because there is a reason for the price.
The phone will fail, if the price isn't right for what it offers.
They had a good balance with the Z10 and I love the Q10.
But if BlackBerry wants to compete directly with the big guys, in the big display segment, then they need to offer a lot for the money the A10 will cost.
I don't want to make predictions if the phone fails, because I do not hope so, but the initial strategic position BlackBerry is in, with a such a device is worse than they were with the Z10.
