BlackBerry Z10 pictured wearing Verizon branding

0. phoneArena posted on 03 Jan 2013, 10:18

Up until now, all of the leaked photographs we've seen of BlackBerry 10 models left out one key element of the design, the carrier branding; now a new leaked photograph shows two BlackBerry Z10 units sandwiching an Apple iPhone and on one of the 'Berrys you can make out the Verizon logo in the top corner of the device...

HOLY CRAP, it looks exactly like the iPhone5 should've looked like.

I'm surprised it's not etched smack dab in the middle of the screen for maximum visability. Yes, still pissed that they put that stupid logo on the Note 2's button. Wether it can be covered or not, thats like putting a "Honk if you like Hooters" sticker on Maybach!

still sucks for verizon customers with the note 2 i saw it already at the store and dam they messed up with the verizon logo in the button haha .. good thing at&t didnt put AT&T on the note 2 im shocked they didnt cuz all there phones usually have AT&T in big azz bold letters on the top , bttm n back. When i got my note 2 wth them it only said SAMSUNG in the front on the top and on the back it only has the AT&T logo the lil blue ball but its really small u cnt even see it but its only the blue ball no AT&T written anywhere on the phone which is good.

Ay Omarcito, trust me, I never look at my Home button; it's the last thing on my Supersonic phone that I ever look at. I'm so busy playing with everything else (like a good little boy) that the only thing my beautiful PAPINYC eyes focus on is the massively humongous gorgeous screen. (with Multi Ventanas, of course ☆)

The Verizon Galaxy Note 2 is the BIGGEST JOKE in the tech game. With it's stripped out multi window feature and altered applications tray as well as that pathetic wifi notifications in the pull down menu. Verizon sucks rotten eggs. The BEST galaxy Note 2 resides on Tmobile, Sprint and At&t WHY because they followed exactly how Samsung made the device without alterations or changes. PISS on Verizon...I hope Samsung NEVER PUTS another Galaxy Note on Verizon again....

Can you do us a favor, if you're gonna' be as butt fÜgly as Whoopi Goldberg can you at least 'put a wig on it'?

And, stop projecting your desire to have a Verizon Galaxy Note II; we all know that Verizon dropped your triTeful @ss because you never paid your bill on time. The next time I see you on 42nd Street I'm going to make sure I have a news crew with me before I give you a pair of boots. (so you can sell to pay your PrePaid cellphone bill)!!!

Oh yeah sure...You see me on 42nd....You sound so clueless and stupid...If you need a loan just say so my friend. No need to front on the internet everyone knows what I am about and what I do. I don't need to front or hide behind fake names please see me anytime...

your name is richardyarrell2011 and as far as we're concerned you're a Phone Arena Troll through and through. you don't contribute anything at all so do us all a favor and stfu...

56. CRICKETownz posted on 03 Jan 2013, 21:40 2

have you used a Verizon Note 2...b/c it has the multi-window feature. smh.

3. naptown2 posted on 03 Jan 2013, 10:28

lmao so true

4. KingKurogiii posted on 03 Jan 2013, 10:31 4 1

i'm looking forward to spending some hands-on time with this. o:

5. Droid_X_Doug posted on 03 Jan 2013, 10:38 7

Out of curiosity, what about the berry is catching your interest?

13. KingKurogiii posted on 03 Jan 2013, 10:57 6 3

the design seems interesting and i'm interested to see what a company like RIM that makes both their own phones and OS has done to separate itself from the rest of the contemporary smartphone market. there was one thing that truly impressed me about the Playbook and that one thing almost redeemed it for me when it hit lower price points and that thing was it's web browser, it was an excellent web browser so that makes me believe this guy's report is not very exaggerated if exaggerated at all.

7. cornerofthemoon posted on 03 Jan 2013, 10:44 7

The phone looks good but I can hear the typing of an Apple lawsuit.

8. lauremar posted on 03 Jan 2013, 10:47 4 1

1) Never a fan of big red (or any carrier) putting their stupid logo on the front of the phones or anywhere else for that matter.

2) RIM needs to give it up and sell the company and its blackberry patents to a bigger company like Cisco or something.... IMHO

33. naptown2 posted on 03 Jan 2013, 14:32 1

or they can partner with google and put android on it

44. XPERIA-KNIGHT posted on 03 Jan 2013, 16:42 1

u need not "give up" on THEM!

10. HTCOE posted on 03 Jan 2013, 10:52 1

some people are going to actually get this and business people are going to find interest in this again... but i'm more interested in if the next neXus will be made by Motorola, what the S IV will look like, and see how Apple will persuade people to buy the 5s if it keeps the same design. I think Cook should just end the "s" series and just put out the next gen.

12. alila2 posted on 03 Jan 2013, 10:56

I still can't get over that bezel being surrounded by more bezel !!!!!!!!!!!!

14. ckoch125 posted on 03 Jan 2013, 10:58 2

Verizon must be mad ey only get that tiny logo on the top of the phone. Everyone knows Verizon loves plastering a million logos on the devices.

15. Aeires (unregistered) posted on 03 Jan 2013, 11:00

Sounds and looks awesome, best of luck to RIM for having a strong come back. Just out of curiosity I cold started my N4 and it took 35 seconds. Wonder how much less than a minute this BB takes exactly.

17. bloodline posted on 03 Jan 2013, 11:23 2

strong apple lawsuit on the way

20. naptown2 posted on 03 Jan 2013, 11:41 1

dont get me wrong i think it looks awesome i just dont think blackberry will win this fight they may wanna contact google and put android on it then watch it sell like hot cakes

54. chaoticrazor posted on 03 Jan 2013, 20:10 1

android isnt for everyone, besides theres a sea of android phones out there

many want something different, and its so funny the android users shout they love to see something different and choices yet every other choice other then android they spend there time slating and saying it will fail.......funny

same thing with the 920, put android on it was there big moan.........only choice they want is android and they think everyone wants it

23. bubbadoes posted on 03 Jan 2013, 11:52 1

looks just like an iphone...will be in court later on down the road..it's not like RIM has money for this type of battle with Apple. Why would you even bother mirroring the iphone looks anyway.

32. fuzzkage posted on 03 Jan 2013, 14:28

I personally like blackberry and their social network integrations even though it's a little aged lol

41. motty posted on 03 Jan 2013, 16:28

I love the size and design but I hate the OS.

45. Armor posted on 03 Jan 2013, 16:46 2

To the ones who say they hate the os. How can you hate something that is totally new. It is nothing like the old os from blackberry. After this os hits the market it will make apple's ios the oldest os on the planet. This new os is so efficient. Go to YouTube and search for bb10 videos and check it out.

The extra bezel around the screen is because you use gestures to perform task. Notice there are no buttons on the front of the phone. Also it looks nothing like the iphone. Notice the top and bottom of the phone where the screen stops and the phone starts. Also the screen stretches to the edge on the left and right.

There are many new features that no other phone offers in the world.

61. vladd100 posted on 04 Jan 2013, 05:56

apple is waiting....

62. InspectorGadget80 posted on 04 Jan 2013, 09:33

All RIM needs is BB10 on Sprint T-Mobile & a release date and we will see how much hand sets they will sell during the 1st QT

63. samdsox posted on 06 Jan 2013, 22:45

That's odd. My mom's friend is a human factors engineer for verizon (or something like that) so she gets to test verizon's newest phones. She let my play with the z10 for a bit. I don't remember seeing the verizon logo. BTW Blackberry 10 IS MUCH BETTER. However it takes some getting used to being gestured based(no home button :() You end up swiping to the side alot.

66. verty posted on 10 Jan 2013, 23:10 1

Though I love andriod I am getting vexed at the myopic paradigm of some of these phone arena users. Don't you guys ever tire of using the same OS day in day out. You complain of apple yet you want to box us into andriod. Please shut up and don't be wishing and saying Nokia and Blackberry will fail. These are companies spending millions of dollars and hours on research to please a nitwit like you and put food on your family's table. Still you open your big mouth thoughtlessly and say one company will fail! I am seriously rooting for BB10 and can't wait to get my hands on one!!! Kudos to the CEO. He has balls and I love him for that. He also knows whats good and what his customers want and he took good time to give us that. Thats good customer care.

67. joey18 posted on 13 Jan 2013, 16:55

this another chance for rim if this fail is not back againg but i want to try 2 years with the iphone i'm boring same crap from 5 years ago upgrade for iphone 5 but after 1 month i say why upgrade when i can get better phone htc or motorola but this blackberry open my eyes i wan thi march
