BlackBerry Q10

The first QWERTY keyboard BB10 phone is here. Is it any good?

Physical QWERTY interface, Strong 8-megapixel rear camera, Fluid keyboard and touchscreen combination

Awkward 1:1 screen ratio, Expensive, Lack of BlackBerry 10 support

BlackBerry Q10 review

Is the keyboard the key to BB 10 success?

Full physical keyboard ; Impressive web speeds ; Updated BB10 ; Decent battery life

Odd screen size ; Lack of apps ; Very expensive ; Not great for games/movies

The BlackBerry Z10 arrived in a whirlwind of frenzied marketing at the beginning of the year, but that new phone smell is starting to wear off so here's the second new instalment from the company formerly known as RIM - the BlackBerry Q10.

BlackBerry Q10

The BlackBerry Q10 is the BlackBerry of BlackBerry users. It retains the keyboard that BB owners know and love, sticking to the tried and tested route, rather than taking on the big rivals from Apple and Samsung with a touch-only device. Set alongside...

Design, improved camera, some nice UI features, the keyboard experience is still great

Battery life doesn't seem as good as it should be, the UI can at times be fiddly, there's a lack of apps available, it's a little on the chunky side

Set alongside the BlackBerry Bold, we'd take the BlackBerry Q10 any time. It's a step forward for BlackBerry's Qwerty device, it offers the reassurance of a physical keyboard that's great to use, with tried and tested shortcuts, and improvements to...

If you've got a BlackBerry Bold in your pocket, then you may well have your eye on the BlackBerry Q10. While BlackBerry - ditching the RIM name - launched

Video: BlackBerry Q10 review - physical qwerty keyboard phone is far from cheap

The BlackBerry Q10 is the flagship BlackBerry smartphone with a physical keyboard. It offers a similar BlackBerry 10 experience to its touchscreen cousin the BlackBerry Z10, but looks and feels much more like a traditional BlackBerry handset. Here's PC...

BlackBerry Q10 review

The Q10 is a small and light device, relatively thick for a modern phone, weighing in at around 140g and measuring just 119.6x66.8mm, but a relatively fat 11mm thick. Available in white or black it is principally constructed of plastic, with a silver...

BlackBerry's Q10 is filled with many creative features but its ultimate success will come down to one basic question: Do you want a qwerty device? I don't think the era of the qwerty is over, since I have met users who prefer a physical keyboard. But...

Blackberry Q10 review

The Q10 combines the best of BlackBerry's new operating system with a keyboard, but it's expensive and apps are lacking

BlackBerry Q10 review

In a smartphone world saturated with huge full HD screens, quad-core power and fancy camera tech, you'd be forgiven for missing the entrance of the QWERTY keyboard-toting BlackBerry Q10. But for all the bells and whistles that phones like the Samsung...

BlackBerry Q10 review

BlackBerry has undergone a great number of transitions in a short few years, not all of them good. The company was once synonymous with suited business types, due to push email and full physical Qwerty keyboards on handsets. The low price of BlackBerry...

Comfortable, responsive physical keyboard; Bold screen; Smooth performance; Decent battery life.

BlackBerry 10 software is far from perfect; Far too expensive; Miserably stocked app store; Camera doesn't impress.

The BlackBerry Q10's physical Qwerty keyboard is comfortable and the screen is bright and bold. It's let down, however, by a high price, some annoying software quirks and a barren app store.
