BlackBerry Z10

Does the BlackBerry Z10 do enough to put BlackBerry back on the map.

BlackBerry Z10 review

Tasked with saving BlackBerry, can the first BB 10 handset deliver?

Great web browsing ; Expandable storage ; Decent camera ; Messaging hub

Plastic case not premium ; Lack of apps ; UI not for everyone ; Some apps lack features

Will it be supported for long? Maybe not... but the superbly low price makes this a decent alternative to the Android / iPhone monopoly.

Blackberry Z10

If you're already a BlackBerry fan, this is well worth a look – but at the moment the Z10 can't quite compete with the market leaders

Innovative operating system ; Sharp screen ; Great keyboard ; Expandable storage ; 4G

Uncompetitive audio and video performance ; Few apps ; Interface quirks might prove annoying to some ; Uninspiring design

BlackBerry Z10

This is a new beginning for BlackBerry. A new flagship device with a new operating system, looking to excite the fans of the BlackBerry platform and breathe new life into a company that's lost massive ground to Apple and Google. The BlackBerry Z10...

Great display, phone feels well built, some intuitive features, Time Shift in the camera is great fun

There's nothing you can't find elsewhere, some strange quirks to the UI suggest some holes need plugging, battery life is a serious concern, missing apps means it's a step behind

The BlackBerry Z10 ushers in a new era for BlackBerry. The user experience from the new BlackBerry 10 software is good: it's easy enough to master and navigate around, with BlackBerry's strengths coming to the fore. The messaging system is still...

Hands-on: BlackBerry Z10 review - Pocket-lint

After months of waiting, the new BlackBerry is here ready to save the day - and the company, for that matter. Pocket-lint has been living with the new

BB10 and therefore the Z10 has some really nice features to it. Based on the time we've spent with it so far, we love the keyboard, although suspect Android users will get something equally as powerful in the next iteration of SwiftKey, and we like the...

We're not going to make any definitive judgments because we haven't yet spent enough time with the Samsung Galaxy S4. Suffice to say that both of these phones offer high-end features and good performance. The Galaxy S4 is more of an all-round...

BlackBerry Z10 vs Apple iPhone 5 comparison video review

The iPhone 5's fit and finish are exceptional, with the glass inserts on the rear panel automatically selected from 725 subtly different shapes for the best fit into the aluminium shell.

BlackBerry Z10 vs Apple iPhone 5 comparison review

The long-awaited new BlackBerry 10 operating system is here and with it, the first smartphone, the BlackBerry Z10. It's crucial that this does well for BlackBerry, but it puts enormous pressure on the Z10 to surpass every expectation, as well as offer...

The BlackBerry Z10 is a good smartphone, but it can't quite match the iPhone 5. The iPhone has (and will always have) more apps to choose from - not just the big hitters, but also the less popular utilities that make your life easier. Given that the...
