- Why the need to cover it in a shell when the actual device has been pictured without the shell a number of times? (Is it to hide the carrier symbol?)09-15-13 11:23 AMLike 0
- Pete The PenguinResident CrackBerry WizardI thought the common understanding was that there were two versions of the device being tested (720p/1080p) and we didn't know which one BlackBerry decided to go with.
Didn't realize BlackBerry has confirmed anything about a device that doesn't exist. I guess I missed that post.

I've seen all the pictures that have been leaked but It doesn't "exist" until it has been officially released. Plus saying that it was confirmed before the release of BlackBerry 10 over a year ago doesn't answer my question about the two versions being tested. Something you have indicated several times over the past few months.
Either way. I'm sorry I asked the question. After being jumped on by you and Blaize I really wish I hadn't asked it.

Don't apologise for asking a question aminrajabi, you have every right to.

- Pete The PenguinResident CrackBerry WizardI think the phone looks repulsive, and seems to be the inbred son of the Z10 and Q10.
I'm very satisfied with my Z10. They didn't give it to me, either. I bought it.
What is going through BlackBerry's collective mind? "Hmmm, nobody is buying the Z10, there's talks of a fire sale. Oh!! Let's make it .8 inches bigger, same resolution, and throw the Q10 top on it - this is gonna be what gets us out of this mess!" Looks like a damn Z10/Q10/GS4 orgy happened and the this is the physically deformed inbred child.
The Z30 is fugly!!

Optimization is the key, and everyone and their mother knows that Android is a sad excuse for an OS. Nothing about it is good. It's an outright cacophony of a bunch of features that have been put together in such a rudimentary fashion that they cannot run on anything but the latest hardware and despite that it's still slow, prone to lockups, non responsive behavior, you name it.
iOS, BB10, and Windows Phone own any android device any day in terms of the actual user experience. This is a fact.

...unless something radical happens in last few weeks the Z1, arrived around February, right when Z10 came out, is practically already mopping the floor with a soon-to-be-released BB flagship device, let's just admit it.
PS: I love the Z1 design, just like I love Z10 too - Z30, OTOH, looks like some rounded Samsung crap to me.

- It always baffles me when I see this claim. See the page button on the upper right? That's what I tap to get to a scrollable view of my running tasks on my Xperia Z. Then I tap the app I need next. It's two taps, just like the swipe then tap on BB10. Two movements. That's it.
I don't play games on mine, either.
Ninja edit: And if you're referring to incoming notifications, they scroll right before your eyes in the task bar. You instantly know which app the message is coming from, the sender, and first few lines of text. If you deem it important enough to respond to right away, swipe the notification bar and tap the notification. Again, two gestures.
I personally prefer multitasking on android with the dedicated multitasking button so that one does not have to minimize the app to see the active apps or recent apps running. I think what BB10 really needs is a way to go back to the previous app with a gesture within a current app.09-15-13 11:45 AMLike 4 - It always baffles me when I see this claim.

The holier than thou attitude needs to be brought down a notch. People come here to ask questions, no need to be condescending.

- Okay, i would say experia z1 will win on the spec...
But
How about the endurance and performance?
Samsung gS4 compared to z10 in performance is about the same... (they're just different in specs)
Remember....
PERFORMANCE... not the spec.

More confirmation that Android is flawed.09-15-13 11:56 AMLike 0 -
"Yeah, they were really blindsided by that new iPhone release in September and its specs."
which aspects of the iPhone spec are you referring to as far as the Camera goes? The camera on the Z30 and the iPhone 5S (per the following link: Apple - iPhone 5s - Technical Specifications) are both 8 MP.
I can understand about the fingerprint sensor - it may be very likely the reason why this the Z30 is photographed with a jacket on the OP - may be they are going to introduce a finger print sensor at the bottom.
By - "it might come with a USB fingerprint scanner attached to it." - do you mean as an external attachment?09-15-13 11:58 AMLike 0 - I gave up arguing with people who have never used android enough to understand how things work. It's really not that complicated as you have said but hey if it's not BB10 it's not good enough.

actually is no argument

I think that sometimes BB10 users are so amazed with its simplicity that they get it into their head that there's no way anything else could be as efficient as BB10 in handling task switching/multitasking/incoming notifications. Then they post as such without looking into how other operating systems actually handle all that.szlevi likes this.09-15-13 12:02 PMLike 1

- How can you say they weren't as clean or effective if you can control pretty much everything? You can control what information is displayed on your home screens, configure radio toggles, etc. I always keep things pretty minimalist, myself. Just a clock/weather app, and my 8 most used apps for my main home screen. My other screens are widgets like music player controls, email, calendar, and twitter. My radio controls are in my notification drawer, where I prefer them. I rarely have to go into my app list because what I use most is at my fingertips. I really enjoyed my time with BB10, but it seemed like I was always tweaking things to my preferences. I would have liked to be able to pin certain active frames down so they wouldn't move around as I go in and out of apps, or have to restart them if my phone rebooted. I always liked to have my calendar, weather, BBM, and browser as my active frames. Maybe I'm just a tad OCD lol.szlevi and yelmonster like this.09-15-13 12:11 PMLike 2
- That's Samsung's TouchWiz for ya, although I'm not sure what skin the Huawei uses. You either love it or hate it. It's entirely bloated...but offers features not offered on other devices. It's just a case of weighing what you want out of a device - a slick minimalistic experience, or tons of features and the occasional stutter. I had the SGS3 and I didn't like that you had to long press one of the buttons (can't remember which) to get the multitasking view instead of just tapping the on-screen button like my Sony, Nexus, etc. And some people don't like the on-screen buttons because they take up screen real estate, but with a 5" screen I don't mind at all.09-15-13 12:17 PMLike 0

It really doesn't matter how many android devices you have claimed to have used when it doesn't help your argument without any materialization of how you came to a conclusion. You can make android "clean" through customization and make it appear pretty elegant. If you're talking about effectiveness, android does multitasking just as good if not better as there is no need to exit an app to jump to the next one. I like BB10, but I'm not afraid to provide some constructive feedback. No kool-aid or blinders. I'm done here.szlevi likes this.09-15-13 12:28 PMLike 1
