Battery life: BlackBerry Z10 vs iPhone 6
- Was just looking over reviews of the new iPhone. Most were mixed a few (fanboys). said it was the best phone you can get. But I looked at some spec. It has the same size battery as z10. And only has 1gig of ram. Just curios what you guys think?
One of the reviews said the battery life was incredible. And easily got 2 days out of it?

- I thought to it was released today. Yet it's the greatest thing since sliced bread. And the battery life was impressive yet it has same batter as z10? Which was painted as a terrible battery bka bla.
And The nfc will only work with apple pay?

I know that my Z10 battery got much better with each update. Maybe 10.3 will make it even better.

You can leave an iphone4 or later that's been fully charged off FOR A MONTH and when you turn it on you still have full battery. Yes, the Z10 has a poor battery life due to the OS and slip-shod hardware. I've got a z10 and q10 and am a blackberry fan but as of late their products frankly suck.09-20-14 10:56 PMLike 3

- Also iPhone 6 has a bigger screen than Z10. Keeping that in mind, I would say they have done a very impressive job with optimization.09-20-14 11:30 PMLike 0
- Hahaha
Considering the reputation of Iphones with batteries, and now with an even larger screen, I don't expect the battery life of the Iphone 6 to be much better than the 5S.
I have been using smartphones from past Nokia Symbian phones to various BlackBerry phones, and I never actually had to charge my phone during the day for any phones I owned. Yet, I see so many Iphone users that have to bring their entire charger with them to libraries or cafes.
It's not as thin as you like when you have to take your charger out right?
Lol

Also, please tell me how's iOS 8 file manager? and how's NFC bluetooth pairing working for you? I'm sure you already bought a bunch of NFC tags to automatize daily tasks, oh wait.
Stop baiting m8.

Those battery review you linked are bogus at best. Without knowing what method, metric was used, under what condition, settings etc to test the battery, they aren't very credible.
I agree during the time when I had an iPhone 5 in my possession, I tend to charge it twice, sometimes three times a day, but that's because it's from using airplay a lot for screen sharing, and face timing. In addition to that, averages iPhone users aren't deep into the menu setting and turn off location service for each app, which I found out was another reason for horrible battery.
Now on my Z10, I charge it also twice a day, but sans airplay or any type of sharing, and no face timing since no one I know uses BBM.

Sure, even without Blend and since 10.1.
I use my bluetooth on the PC(DELL Latitude E 6530 with WIN7 Pro) for that. Works even with sms.

Assuming you are using the Microsoft Office excel program, you would save it to your One Drive and just open the office document from your BlackBerry 10 device and edit it using the doc to go program.
Also, answering the call on your computer has been possible with Nokia Communication Center program since 2010!
Nokia Symbian was truly ahead of its time. Even ahead of BlackBerry.

- You're comparing two different things here. IOS can use air drop to share files, NFC isn't needed. In fact, Apple didn't advertise NFC for file sharing. If you have to go down that route, let's see , how's the $700? BlackBerry Passport stack against competition when it has no ecosystem? Can BlackBerry blend even let you answer a call while working on a computer? Nope. Can BlackBerry blend even let you pick up your unfinished tasks (i.e. Excel sheet) from your computer and complete it on your phone? Nope.

>NFC isn't needed
Same thing you Apple fans said a couple years ago about 4.7" screens , I call it the Apple fallacy, "if we don't have it, we don't need it".
Posted via my Limited Edition Z10.09-21-14 08:05 AMLike 4 - Strong affirmations about something that hasn't even been officially acknowledged by BlackBerry.

I'm no fan of the iPhone but I would think it's battery life should be better than the z10 at this point. Just as I would expect that the next new full touch BlackBerry should have better battery life than the iPhone 6.
Z1009-21-14 08:24 AMLike 5 - Well if you wanna look at other spec the iPhone 6. Is wayyyyyy behind. Os 8 is no different than os7. Apart from a few borrowed features.
If you look at review sites tester are mixed and customers are disappointed. Ya everyone is saying the battery is awesome wait till you get a few headless apps on there and see how long it lasts

Z10
When the z10 came out people were carving the z10 battery up. Yet praising the ip6. For having incredible battery life. It's laughable how diluted people are
