- 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.
You can't just say two phones take similar quality pictures because they both have the same megapixel count. It doesn't work that way...if not you'd think the 41MP Nokia 1020 is FAR better than an 18MP Canon T5i DSLR.09-15-13 05:10 PMLike 3 - Here are some specs on Sony Z1, I doubt the Z30 is anything close to this.

It's really not that complicated as you have said but hey if it's not BB10 it's not good enough.
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.
Goes on to explain how android is better09-15-13 05:18 PMLike 0 -

Now next year, starting with the A330 GPU, they will be able to move to 1080p. Only 9 months to go, yeah!09-15-13 05:41 PMLike 2 - 09-15-13 05:41 PMLike 2

- Guys, think about it. Shrugging off the competition, saying it sucks, saying people don't need these options, etc is exactly what got BB in their predicament in the first place. I've owned BlackBerry, Android, and iOS. I can see the good in all platforms. I don't say the things that I didn't like about them "suck" because I recognize that they're MY OWN PREFERENCES. What sucks for me, someone else might not mind or it might not be a function they use like I do. Right now I don't think Windows Phone is a good option for me, but who would I be to say it sucks? I know some people who love it. That's great if it works for them! As far as iOS, I was really impressed with the iPhone 5S. Is it for me? I'd be really tempted if the screen was over 4.5" I'm also not really a fan of iTunes or a homescreen full of just icons. But again that's my OWN PREFERENCE. Just because they went with the same small screen doesn't mean I'm going to say it sucks.
Take the BlackBerry vs BB10 multitasking for example. I don't mind that Android pauses a video when I reply to a notification (it only pauses when I click out of the video app btw, I can pull down the notification shade and the video still runs) because if I'm watching a video I want to see all of it. But I think it's great that BB has that option for those who have different wants. I like how I can tap the multitasking button on Android and see several (not just 8) little windows of my running apps and go back into them. However, those little windows don't give updates like BB10's active frames. For example, the weather app window will still show the last view I was in and not an updated account of the weater. My FB window shows the last view, and not the little red indicator showing I have new notifications. That's where BB10 excels with their auto updating active frames. I like how Android handles incoming notifications better, but I'm really looking forward to trying out the 10.2 toast notifications.
See how this works? I can appreciate the pros of both without saying the other one "sucks." If some killer features come out at the Z30 launch and I switch back to BB10, do I automatically have to start disliking Android? Of course not.09-15-13 06:05 PMLike 8 - 09-15-13 06:30 PMLike 0

- Not true :P
There is a 1280x768 coming, followed by a 720p and a 720x720
After that, it's a seeeeeeeecreeeeeeeet
It was a joke. Everybody knew a long time ago what the 5S would be and it hasn't affected BB's 2013 lineup. Let's see what they come up with in 2014.wincyUt likes this.09-15-13 06:41 PMLike 1 -
