i'm a blackberry user and i like the blackberry so much but my advice to RIM company is :
1. the price of the device is always high for
ex: the price of 9220 in Egypt is 1200 Egyptian pound ,although i can buy a Samsung mobile with more feature than blackberry in the same price
2. the cost of the BB service is 100 EG plus 20 EG for Mobile internet ,although in android devices i can only pay 20 EG for the mobile service
3. the design of the devices is similar and the screen always small

If you are holding on to blackberry just because of bbm, that's pathetic. The new BB10 OS is advanced yet you fail to realize that. If you think you prefer platforms with more apps like android or ios is better, just use them. Stop whining about the lack of apps on BB10. It's not their fault when there's no apps. Blame those bullish devs instead, they're the ones who refuse to make the apps.

BB is dead... long back...
BB should have bought WebOS
BB should have partnered with Microsoft
Even now BB should think about WP.
WP on a Qwerty Q5 would be a superhit as it would be a great differentiator

about time BB launched lower end models
Q5 is still expensive
perhaps a full touch model at a lower price
may be bigger screens (4.7 with 720p is good enough)

My quad core S3 will whip your dual core Z10 in processing speeds any day... you might have faster web browsing but that's it.

Salem, 29 Jun 2013Good morning buddy, but Q5 is already out.
Z10
Q10
Q5
... moreAmazing how some of you will distort facts so you don't have to defend your position.
Blackberry sales for OS10 is only for 2 devices as previously commented. No Q5 sales figures were included in the latest earnings. Why? Because it was only available in Dubai for than less 2 weeks and it's still pre-order in nearly all countries.
Tell ya what, leave the comments for the big boys, ok?

BlackBerry isn't for kids, it's for business people. Why are you guys commenting in a BB news if you are happy with your lag DROIDs? I can type faster on my BlackBerry Q10 then you can on your touch screen phones with apps like Swype and SwiftKey. Everyone don't like touch screen phones and some don't like qwerty phones. It's general preferences. My BB10 does almost everything, from mailing to posting pictures on Facebook and a little bit gaming and i am happy with it, it last me 10 days on moderate usage. No lags, no issues. BB rocks.

What is the purpose of having those physical keys when you can't even type faster than today's touchscreen smartphones? Bring your best Blackberry and I will use my old Samsung GS2 (not using currently after upgrading) with swype keyboard enabled. I can definitely prove to you how an average user can type faster than you just using one finger. Technology has evolved my friend and you just need to come out from your cave and stop being too attached to old technology. No hate towards BB, but i think they are no longer relevant nowadays.

BlackBerry are considering launching a new device higher up the mobile food chain than their z10. They hope to gain appeal at the very high end of the market as well as target other markets with the Q5.

just an email and bbm? Blackberry is far better phone than any especially now since they have lunched these new models and qwerty models with the long lasting battery, and yes with the physical buttons oh yeas thank God for that everyone seems to forgot that there is many people who find having just touching screen rubbish and never as good as physical keys. Do NOT understand these people who are so negative about Blackberry why??
