    Q10 has a great keyboard and a decent screen size considering the real estate trade off for the keyboard. After using the z30 for a week everything else seems small. Battery and sound on the 30 are amazing.

    Just buy both

    If you're a heavy messaging person, multiple emails, BBM, WhatsApp, SMS's and you want it done quickly without having to think too much with the softkey's guessing thing or even look while you're typing, Q10 puhleeez!! My second phone is an S3 with SwiftKeys, there's no better keyboard software out there, but still will never be like a qwerty, I use this for my entertainment and multimedia fix!

    Basically it depends on what you will be using it for. If you're a heavy messaging person, then the Q10 is the way to go, if you're an in betweener, you might miss the screen real estate in which case if you can afford it, buy a Q10 and a bigger screen full touch. If you're a gamer and do a lot of multimedia and surfing, definitely the Z30 then!

    I use both and would find it hard to choose between the two. Naijberry pretty much nailed it...

    SwiftKey is great on an android, but it's nowhere near as good as the native keyboard software on a Z10/Z30.

    Trying to decide myself. Definitely preferred the Q10 to my Z10...but now in the first few days of using my Z30, I love it. Not sure whether i'll stick with it as a daily driver, or switch back to my Q. Biggest problem....how in the heck do you carry this thing??? i'm old, so I use a holster with my Q, but the Z30 seems sort of big for a holster, and too big for my pocket....

    Z30 all the way ...the Q10 sucks donkey balls and represents a bygone era of BlackBerry devices, the antithesis of what BlackBerry should focus on!

    The Q10 is just a supped up Bold 9900, you don't get the full BB10 immersion, loose screen real estate, a lot of other features, sound is weaker, display misses out on the full complexity of the BB10 OS.

    Most of all you miss on the awesome virtual keyboard and all that it has to offer.

    I have a Z10 and would never go back to a QWERTY physical keyboard phone.

    As a Sprint customer, I had been holding out upgrading on rumors the Z30 was coming to Sprint, but my old Blackberry finally made the decision for me by breaking down. I went ahead and bought the Q10 outright, reasoning that I can still upgrade to a Z30 if Sprint gets it, or jump ship to Verizon if performance evaluation of the Z30 continues to be favorable and if Sprint proves once again that it just wants to spit on its Blackberry users. I will say this much, though. 1) I am enjoying the Q10 very much, since my main activities on the device are messaging, email, and scheduling. 2) since I have a Playbook, with Blackberry Bridge I can access any email (or more importantly, any excel or word attachment) with ease, and I can use a mobile hotspot for such things as using the browser to read the paper during my morning commute (by ferry, not stupid enough to gawk at a phone or tablet while driving). So, if you have a choice between the two, and have to choose one, Naija has already given you the best advice. And, of course, there are always those rumors of a Q30 and a Z50 on the horizon.

    Same problem for me, or was. I waited for the Q10, as I'm a hardcore qwerty guy and use my phone for business communication and data to my PB. I tried the Z10 and was amazed by the keyboard but it still wasn't for me, so I ordered the Q10. THEN the rumors of a Z30 appeared and I decided just for the heck of it to wait and check it out. I did and was sold. Between the screen real estate, keyboard and voice dictation accuracy, I'm thinking I can still be pretty productive with it as far as speed goes, only time will tell. But NOW the rumors are about in regard to the Q30, the ultimate phone, for me that is. If I keep waiting on upcoming phones I'll still be on my 9930 10 yrs from now So I'm not waiting, the Z30 is what I'm getting now and I'll have 15 days to verify it'll work for me, if not, then I'll go with the Q10.

    Wife has a q10 and I have a z30. Both are running 10.2.1.1055 and both are awesome devices with almost identical performance.

    I came from a bold 9900 and was concerned with the lack of the physical keyboard, but a few hours on the z30 and I was hooked, can't imagine going back now.

    Z30, although I must admit I haven't used the Q yet. I wasn't sure if I'd be able to fully adapt to the touch screen keyboard even though I was coming from a Torch, but it's actually very easy to use. Love the big screen, and very little to disappoint so far.

    I have both but to be honest I'm using the z30 as my main phone, which I never had believed it might happen. When I was using z10 my q10 was my main device. Then comes the z30 and my mind changed. If I had to choose between q10 and z30 I'll go for the z30.

    Q10 for me because I like the keyboard and I would tire very quickly of wiping the finger prints off the bigger screens. ;o)
