Here are more leaked pictures of the BlackBerry Z10 in white

Color is a matter of personal preference. I would pick the black version, but that is just me.

What concerns me more is the rumored spec sheet for the phones. Everything about it is basically last year's specs. Of course, that is normal for RIM, but things have changed. MS is hard at work on upgrading WP to accommodate higher resolution screens, quad-core CPUs and what-not. Even Apple is acknowledging reality and is working on a 4.8 inch screen size iPhone (Math). Flagship phones in 2013 will need to offer upgraded camera features beyond 8 Mp. And, and, and.

It is as if RIM took a timeout, regrouped and came back expecting to have to play at the level that was necessary for the market in 2012. Except that it is now the market of 2013.

I understand how the specs sheet might concern you, but take into consideration that BB10 might be a very low resource OS that manages the power its given very well. Just like WP7, those devices ran pretty much flawless with only single core processors and sub-1 GB RAM; I had one, and even though I didn't enjoy the OS very much, all the operations were smooth and instant.

OS burden is only part of the picture. Camera functionality is completely separate from the number of CPU cores. 2013 flagship phones seem to be equipped with 13 Mp sensors. In addition, expect to see more post-processing supported by the default camera app. Sony is setting expectations for HDR video. HDR video will require robust CPU, RAM and GPU that is way beyond the spec sheet of any BB10 phone I have read about.

I hope RIM is able to connect the dots.... Only thing is that the bar is pretty high.

lumia 920 is ugly as hell

12. chaoticrazor posted on 28 Jan 2013, 10:57 7 5

thats not true is it, why hate ?

seen your posts and your a raging android lover but seriously stop been one sided

920 looks pretty good. and this z10 looks quality too bb are bringing everything they can to be successful

28. umadd (banned) posted on 28 Jan 2013, 13:39 3 3

Have you actually seen a 920 in person ? It's an oversized n9. Do you think the iphone5 would look good if it was upscaled to 5 inches? Likely not but it looks fine the size it is at right now. Same goes for n9. Stop getting butthurt just because that's how I think. Not everyone has the same opinion as you

I agree that BB10 will be dead.
But Lumia 920 is NOT BETTER
Lumia 920 is the shame of Nokia.
It has advertising money 5x more than nokia ever use, but the sales number is so small....

Shame on Nokia for not using Android

shame on you for being butthurt that nokia isnt using android.

20. donfem posted on 28 Jan 2013, 11:34 2 1

In your opinion. Besides, no one asked for it.

21. donfem posted on 28 Jan 2013, 11:35 3 2

Isn't is sad that some fools on these boards would thumb down anything just for the sake of it?

23. chaoticrazor posted on 28 Jan 2013, 11:37 1 4

I gladly take this opportunity to welcome you the the PA comments section. Hopefully you'll have a tough time trying to put your opinions across as is the standard procedure with the lesser mortals (read: those who aren't fanboys of a particular ecosystem).

Strangely enough, I agree with you. Although I don't know why. I do like the look of this phone though...

16. freebee269 posted on 28 Jan 2013, 11:10 6 2

just wondering here, do you have anything close to facts to back up your bunch of opinions? of thats right, bb10 hasnt went on sale yet so you have no base. funny how that works huh?

24. donfem posted on 28 Jan 2013, 11:37 0 1

You shouldn't be surprised that you have morons here who would state anything as a fact when it is actually opinion.

22. donfem posted on 28 Jan 2013, 11:36 2 1

Exactly as your name states.. You are truly a LOSER

30. andylancheros1 posted on 28 Jan 2013, 13:47 2 1

Bro, if every brand is an Android brand this smartphone world would be totally boring, so lets hope for BB1O to bring great things to the market as well as microsoft which has been always a killer company! DOA? I dont think so my fried friend!

It looks good in my humble opinion!

33. snowgator posted on 28 Jan 2013, 15:28 1 1

Totally agree. I still think there is room for BB, WP, Android and Apple, but it is up to RIM and Microsoft to give users a reason to choose their OS over the established ones. I want all four around. Cheering hard for a long term BB10 success.

37. Penny posted on 28 Jan 2013, 18:48 1 1

@rsiders & @snowgator,

I agree with both of you. I'm a WP fan, but truly on the fence about whether I should use my next upgrade for an amazing Lumia or what looks to be a very exciting BB10 device. Ah, choices, choices!

46. chezy posted on 28 Jan 2013, 22:48 1 0

if you are referring to the bezel size its big Cuz the phone uses gestures..

38. chaoticrazor posted on 28 Jan 2013, 18:52 1 1

android, iOS, wp8 and bb10 giving the customer choice.

who knows what will be number 1 etc but aslong as they stick around who cares

$600 is not bad. I agree.
