This phone is amazing! It is literally a joy to use.I bought the Z10 as a replacement for my Nexus 4, which was a good phone, and I was still blown away by this thing. Most of the important apps are either on the Z10, coming soon, or have really decent web apps that you can make desktop shortcuts for. Anyways, the screen is the best I have ever seen on a mobile device, and that includes the iPhone 5. Color saturation is on par with the iPhone 5 screen, sharpness is slightly higher on the Z10 (Z10 has higher pixel density), and the auto brightness is by far better than anything on the market! It actually adjusts brightness while you're using the device, not just when you first turn on the screen (as is the case for the iPhone 5, and Nexus 4). The interface is super smooth, the keyboard is by far the best on the market (and I've used Swype, Swift Key, and stock iOS 6/JB 4.2 keyboards), the speaker is actually loud, not just called a "loudspeaker." The battery lasts 150-200% what my Nexus 4 lasted! Anyways, if I were to list all the things I love about this phone, it would be a much longer review than I'd like, so I'll start with some negatives. App selection is DEFINITELY not on par with iOS/Android, so if you go in with that expectation, you'll be sorely disappointed. Google Account integration is not as good as on Android (obviously). For example, you need to employ workarounds to get multiple calendars from your account to show up on the device. There are also a few minor quirks in the OS, that I'm sure will be addressed in the future (ex. The Hub not resetting to the top when you leave it, so doing a peak gesture when you get a notification just shows you what you were doing last, and you have to close that to see the notification. Obviously, finishing off what you were doing is a simple way of avoiding that situation).Anyways, I'm sure you can see that I've rated it 5 stars. In comparison, my Nexus 4 received 3 stars. It is safe to say that I am absolutely in love with this phone, and have been *very* pleasantly surprised as I had been a huge RIM (Blackberry) detractor in the past. In fact, I only got the Z10 to show people that I rationally dislike RIM, and not just talk without having used their products. Well, I stand corrected. I ended up selling my Nexus 4 after a week of owning the Z10 :)

I've owned and used Droid Incredible, Note 1, S3, iPhone 4s, multiple Windows phones. But, I don't have to use every phone ever made to know that Z10 is the best phone available.I'm so thoroughly enamored with BB10 after only one week of using it. I have an S3 through Verizon, but I bought a Z10 from Canada because I couldn't wait any longer. When I have to use my S3, I find it clumsy and slow and I'm not talking processor speed. I'm talking about the user interface (UI) I am constantly phantom swiping, then I realize I have to look for buttons/keys, etc. Why should I have to look around click the 'back' arrow a dozen times to get out of an app? Swipe up, it's minimized. Tap the 'X' if I've the urge, to close the app. I have 4, 6, 8 open at times with NO performance penalty.And how could I have possibly tolerated such an archaic method of communication as Android? I used to excitedly show my iPhone friends the notification center, and the tweeks of the notification center. Hahaha! Who, after using a BB10 device for a week or two, will ever accept anything less than the Hub? Here's my life to this point...closing the app I am in, opening the app that has the communication interaction (text, FB, LinkedIn, etc), responding in that app, closing that app, then finding and reopening the original app I was in? Serious? How much better is the Hub than anything else available? Infinitely better. Swipe up and over, respond without opening any other apps or closing the app you were in, return. Never again will I settle for anything less efficient.The virtual keyboard? Wow...I never thought I would love something as much as my brief encounter with the Bold 9930 physical keyboard, but this is nothing short of amazing. Stunning in look, feel, accuracy. It's beautiful and efficient and I love it. It even sounds amazing. I'm so fast and accurate and it has to be because of BB, because my fat thumbs aren't any more nimble when I use the S3.The browser? It SMOKES my S3's browser. I don't even understand how it can be as fast as it is? Why are Android and iPhone browsers so slow? And they have the address bar inconveniently located at the top? Compare it to any browser on any platform. The videos are out there to PROVE it, but actually using it yourself is spectacular.Yes, every week another droid comes out with great specs and more cores, but it's the same thing over and over. It's the same clumsy, slow, inefficient UI. NO security. SPECS DON'T MAKE IT A BETTER PHONE! All it does is makes an impressive stat sheet. Do stat sheets make your day better? Does it make your life easier to have more cores? Is that what you begged for in your next phone?Yes, BB doesn't have all the apps yet. They will build them. But, it's OS is something none of the others will have...ever.Google and Apple know they are behind now. Their browser and keyboard are woeful in comparison. And they have NOTHING EVEN CLOSE TO 'Hub' and 'Balance.' Who would like to argue that? The the gesture based UI? I guess, that is a personal preference, and you could argue it, but try it for a couple weeks and then pick up the others. Wow, could they be any less elegant?Android and iOS will have to steal the 'Hub' and 'Balance'. They will have to patch sloppy hack code onto an OS that was built to play apps. For BB10 the OS was built with those things at it's heart. Security, communication, separation of work/play were afterthoughts for them. If Android and iOS have to copy many key components of BB10 OS....who is behind who? What is a better phone? A list of specs meant to 'wow' the geeks, or one that makes your day better and more efficient...a few seconds at a time, hundreds of times per day....

The Z10 appears to be targeted at power users and business users. It is clearly not an Android and it's clearly not a Apple phone and you realize that as soon as you begin using it. It is also not meant to be primarily an entertainment hub or a gaming pad even though I'm sure you can play games and do all the Facebook and Twitter you want on it. Blackberry users should be pleased to know that it should feel familiar to them. To everybody else, it will certainly feel 'different' but it should be up to everyone to decide whether it's 'better' than whatever they have right now.I had the opportunity for a quick - half an hour or so - hands on with a Z10 and I was surprised by how 'familiar' and how natural it felt for someone like me who's had a Blackberry as his primary phone for longer than I care to remember and how everything is so incredibly better, smoother and faster when compared to, let's say, my current Torch.The old Blackberry-like feeling could be viewed as as 'bad thing' but it shouldn't. Trust me, there's a lot more to the Z10 and it adds quite a few new and major capabilities. What impressed me the most was the overall look and feel. Granted, half an hour is not a lot to produce a thorough review but it was enough for me to decided that I wanted one once one became available under more reasonable terms.Going back to 'look and feel', everything seems 'right' about this phone. It's thin and light, has the right ports including micro USB and mini HDMI and none that you don't need. Same for the physical buttons, including a most welcome camera button placed in-between the volume controls. The dual-core CPU and 1GB of RAM make everything instantly responsive. It's so effortless, it's almost as the little Z10 is saying "is this ALL you want me to do?" The interface from what I was able to experience in such a brief time builds on the best of the old touch-enabled Blackberry OS but everything works and it works fast this time. But 'builds upon' is the key phrase because some fundamentally new features were added. For example, you can easily pull the settings by simply dragging them down from the top of the screen. Then there is 'the hub' which has your most recent activities and notifications that you can resume every time you need. You can easily and effortlessly create 'cards' which capture the state of whatever it was you were doing in an app and you can easily navigate through cards and apps icons. Sliding from the bottom from wherever you may be activates the 'peek' feature that slightly shrinks the active screen and lets you see and access any alerts or notifications at the bottom. And there's the universal search that goes through 'everything' on your device: apps, contacts, email contents... whatever matches the string that you type.I'm going to award the Z10 (not this specific deal) 5 stars for being such a streamlined, smooth, flawless device. I will probably have one or one of its successors as my primary phone as soon as I can afford one.
