    Do you think they should bring in a new design team? I do like the look of the z30 over the z10, its a definite improvement but yet there is just something not quite right with it. Maybe its the silver at the bottom, I don't know for sure. But anyways, do you like the current designs or do you want something different?

    While I would be open to a new design I do like the look of the current phones. There sleek yet classy, however if you look at most phones now they all look sort of similar and I'm not sure how much you could change it.

    One thing is for sure they need to pick up their marketing. Whenever I show people my z10 they always compliment me and say how nice it looks. I even had a friend who told me "this is what the iPhone should of been" so there is more important priorities then the design of the phone

    I like the look of the Z30, the fit of all the visible parts screams quality. The Z10 now looks a bit dated since my switch to the Z30. Perhaps future designs should be different, I would like to see BlackBerry release a few phones at the same time, all with the same design theme, but catering to different customers (big screen, regular screen, big screen with keyboard, and regular screen with keys), and them a single massive world wide marketing attack.

    I prefer the look of the Z10 over the Z30 but I'd like to see the new designs. I want a bigger screen than my Z10 has plus more battery power. But I don't want the Z30.

    I like them in general. BlackBerries have always had an understated but well built, attractive and ergonomic design. I wouldn't mind seeing the use of more premium materials like stainless steel though, like on the 9900.

    Would be nice if a updated Z10 was released with a stainless steel chassis like the Z30 has with larger battery and perhaps a gold limited edition lol. I like the Z30 but it's too large to hold for one handed use for me. The Z10 size is perfect!

    I like the look of the Q10.

    The others, not so much ... but then I've never had any use for slab-phones, popularized by Apple.

    they need to maintain the Z10 look in my opinion. I like the fact that I can sit my phone upright when i use levelling apps.

    At home, with friends or at work My BB Z10 always gets admiring glances when they all have S4s or iPhones. Always receive positive comments on its looks. I like the form factor of the Z10. My life functions just fine without being a Google or Apple slave and I do believe BB are doing the best with the resources available to them. The Q10 is an awesome looking device but only issue for me is screen real estate. Z30 looks cool but beyond my budget currently.

    I like the Q10 the most, probably because I own one. The only change I would make would be to all a stainless steel band around the phone, similar to the 9900. The phone would not only be more durable, but would look absolutely badass.

    Zed10, Zed30 look great always room for improvement, what I wanna see is a sleeker looking Zed10 so pretty much a 4.5inch Zed30 all the bells and whistles or the Zed30 but with 1080p

    They are getting close but needs some tweaking. It always seems like they get 90 percent correct but just miss the details. And when you use a device every day the details will drive you nuts. A few examples:

    The 9900 silver band is not flush with the sides. The buttons on the side have a mushy feel. The frets silver paint wears off.

    The playbook power button(ridiculous). The border is rounded but the image underneath is square. The logo on the back is not flush.

    I don't own a z30 but that flap on the side to cover the SD slot that is supposed to be "silver metal" on every model I have seen does not line up perfect.

    The ports on every device have been slapped together at the seam to the front and back of the phone no finish. Sloppy.

    As for the style they do look good but could be a little "sexier" I get it is a business brand but people at work are always competing with the nicest watches, ties, business cards (American psycho) you name it. Imagine a tungsten type border on the Z30. A darker silver not shiny sparkly silver.

    Once I put the seidio case on the z10, it becomes another looking phone all together. Love the look and feel of it now.

    So it looks best when you disguise it? That's not a good advert

    I was underwhelmed when I first saw the bb10 devices. Got a Z10 anyway. I think the visual design sucks.
    I saw a video (posted on CB) of the head design guy discussing his decisions. He seemed a bit crap to me.

    Yea, get new guys.

    I love my current z10 looks and size except the power button which looks like a cheap toy. But all in all its perfectly fine for me.

    Say what you will I still love my z10!

    They need to make phones look more fun and less professional. They still scream business.

    I'm open to a new design. I think BlackBerry should come with something really visually stunning. I think the company has yet to do that with any device. IMO, the closest thing to that would be the Bold 9900. Now that device has something special about it visually.

    I'm really digging some of the concept designs we've seen here on CB. Maybe BlackBerry will take to some of the designs for inspiration.
