BlackBerry Z10 Thread

[Empirial]

BlackBerry has launched the much-awaited Z10 in India, the first smartphone to run on the company’s latest BlackBerry 10 platform. The BlackBerry Z10 features a 4.2-inch 1280×768 pixel display, a 1.5GHz dual-core Snapdragon Krait processor from Qualcomm, 2GB of RAM, an 8-megapixel rear camera with 1080p recording and a 2-megapixel camera on the front that can shoot videos in 720p resolution. It also has a microSD card slot and NFC chip too.

The biggest feature of the BlackBerry Z10, however, will be the BlackBerry 10 operating system, which holds the key to the company’s future. The operating system ushers in a completely new swipe-based user interface with the device having no buttons for UI. Yes, there are no home, menu or back keys. BlackBerry 10 brings new concepts of flow and hub, where users are not expected to exit from one app to check out another. Instead they can seamlessly “flow” from one app to another with a few swipes. The Hub is a single place where users can find all their messages across mail accounts, SMS, Facebook, Twitter and everywhere else. The concept is nice and is a different take on the notification center we are used to on iOS and Android.

^^ Not for you, for anyone who liked BB. Now with this kinda pricing, BB joind HTC league and going down.

Other than these 2 big jokers, everybody else price well IMO. If not good pricing, at least decent pricing. Like Sony Z is expected to launch @ 36k, where as HTC One @ 40k+

Bye bye HTC, BB.

Well that's only the MRP. It will be available for around 38 or so locally I believe. Which is about fine considering the target market

^^ I seriously doubt that. Let's see what game BB is going to play.

Re: BlackBerry Z10 launched in India for Rs 43,490

Sony's Timescape is similar to hub.

Well for BB I'd say undeniably they are bit expensive in industry however, like randomuser111 said might be they are market dependent.
But for HTC I'd say they are little bit expensive than Samsung but only at the time of its launch and secondly not for their all devices like last year One V or One S launched at very competitive price.

Now coming back to BlackBerry Z10, looking at its features and specification IMO this is the best and Hi-Tech device BB has ever launched in India.

Everything is rumor about pricing of Xperia Z in India. I think Sony will launch for around 40k and we all know the margins in sony product is very less.

Have Some laugh

It's 12:30am and I almost woke my parents up when I read this one.

" Lava mobiles showroom costs Rs 43,490" XD

Oh boy, BB is such a naive company, if they think themselves as a company that has a standard to launch devices at these prices!!
Even the Note 2 didn't dare cross the 40k mark! wtf.. xD

Re: BlackBerry Z10 launched in India for Rs 43,490

.... and Apple iPhone 5 at 43k is perfectly fine.

Re: BlackBerry Z10 launched in India for Rs 43,490

How many actually used a blackberry before Z10 launched? i'm not defending BB or anything but I only saw businessmen use blackberry till couple of years ago. also most blackberry devices are given to employees by companies. :/ , I wont say what price BB Z10 should be , i'm saying BB is mostly used by business users for its backend services.
