BlackBerry A10 Aristo stars in video

It says its a dual core, 720p, and will be history, above.

PS: BB10 is super smooth with the dual core and doesn't need quad. If you ask me, quad cores are more for self reassurance that you are getting the latest fad and is really only required for Android to run smoothly. But BB is goofing up in its execution (price!).

NO , my friend has a Z10 AND IT GETS LAGGY AT TIMES

and sometimes some apps does not respond and crash

that is app not well designed. See designing app needs template, either you use a general public one which is compatible with most OS or use the native blackberry API which needs more work since some parts need full redesigning.
90% apps use general templates and thats why they are laggy.
its the same reason many apps in android too dont use quad core and only use dual cores.

True that. But my Nexus 4 mostly run only two cores and still remain smooth. All four cores only activates when playing graphic intense games. I hope KLP will be more effecient and smooth without sacrificing hardware.

if your gonna have to pay the same price as other premium specs phone like the S4 or HTC ONE, now why would you want 2012 specs? Its like paying the price of a ferrari even though the car runs like a toyota just because it can still run properly.

blackberry just cant understand that their phones are most desired so to increase the price of phones wont get them any more attention. i still hate myself for buying 9900 for $600.
even latest blackberry shouldnt be worth more than $400.
unless blackberry really are planning to get out of business.

I dont see BB dying anytime soon but they will keep clinging on the edge; soon there might be more drastic changes to come within the next couple of years, or being purchased by another bigger company. Anything can happen.

26. james004 (Posts: 486; Member since: 15 May 2013)

Blackberry uses its own OS so its really difficult to say who would buy them. If it was like webOS then we could say google could use some of its patent and would buy it. but for now bb10 is domed and needs alot of work. blackberry arent getting bought for atleast next 5 years.

Ugly indeed. How can BlackBerry stay afloat with a phone like this? It looks too identical with the Z10.

20. EXkurogane (Posts: 863; Member since: 07 Mar 2013)

Because this is a 5 INCH phone. Nokia is still making 4.X inches because they are well aware, to go 5 inch and above u need quad core and 1080p. That's the difference. Blackberry, instead, decided to stick with midrange specs (by today's standards) for a larger phone. For me as long the phone is smooth, fast, and does what i want it to do, i dont care what's under the hood, but the problem is many others care.

Are you kidding? What does the number of cores have to do with the screen size? Also, my Note 2 has a 720 screen & is 5.5". Guess what? It looks just fine. You just made yourself look really dumb with those comments. No surprise that abcdefgh would agree with you. He can't even add.

I said "By today's standards", Note 2 is a ear 2012 phone. This is how how opinion changes, i read people praising 720p screens last year, and guess what? After a few months by march this year everyone is calling 720p crap. This shows that how utter stupid most people are for judging things by specs simply by "current trend". Unfortunately, when many people think that way, you have to play along or your products wont sell. I even read idiots asking why Lumia 1020 didnt have 1080p screen. Why do you even need 1080p on anything under 5 inch?
