Okay I hate to admit this but.... I am seriously thinking about getting the BB10 when it drops. Don't get me wrong I love my iPhone but to be honest I am getting a little bored with it. Just feels like I want to try something new.

Problem is I tried this awhile back and jumped on an Android and fucking hated it. I ran back to my iPhone within a month.

Give me some reason why I should give the BB a chance.

I've had the privilege of having owned/used both products iPads, Blackberries, etc. now the old blackberries ? Sure maybe it's a little outdated compared to what's out now but the BB10 ? Quite frankly there is NOTHING on the market right now that even compares to the BB10, not even in the slightest way. It's definitely ahead of the curb *shrugs*. If you don't believe me, when the new phones come out January 30th go to your local mobile centre and try it out - then decide if you want to buy one or not.

That's all I can really say fam.

Good looking out @Sion I'm on the fence right now and just trying to decide what to do. My upgrade is in Feb so I'm either going to go with the iPhone 5 or try out this BlackBerry10. I need to check if AT&T has a try it for 30 days program or not.

Not gonna lie, that BB10 looks pretty smooth.

As someone who studies mobile trends and practical everyday uses for phones, I can tell you this......

Blackberry is dead. Simple case of too little too late.

Exactly. BB is still strong in some regions like where I live. Everyone has a BB, especially the business community. More young people have gotten into the Android/Iphone market but still have a BB as a secondary phone (even if its a cheap Curve or something. I just bought an S3 this week, but would not be able to give up my Torch

WATERLOO, Ont. – Research In Motion shares took a substantial step back Tuesday from recent gains, closing down 10 per cent amid a report that BlackBerry’s share of the U.S. market has fallen to just two per cent.

Shares in the Waterloo, Ont.,-based tech company closed down $1.20 to $10.70 in heavy trading of 10.4 million shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange.

Until Tuesday, the stock had risen about 50 per cent in November as several analysts upgraded their views of the company after it set a firm launch date for its upcoming BlackBerry device.

But the latest smartphone sales data from Kantar Worldpanel ComTech showed BlackBerry market share in the U.S has fallen to 1.6 per cent in the 12-week period ending Oct. 28. That’s compared to 8.5 per cent in the three-months ended last October.

The loss came as Apple’s iPhone made a 25.7 per cent gain, now capturing 22.4 per cent of the crucial consumer market. The iPhone’s gain also came at the expense of Android phones, whose market share fell 16.6 per cent to 46.7 per cent of the market.

Apple launched its hotly anticipated iPhone 5 in September, on the same day BlackBerry users in Europe, the Middle East and Africa experienced a massive outage.

The research firm said six per cent of iPhone 5 sales came from former BlackBerry users switching devices.

RIM has under 10 per cent of market share in the tech-savvy North American market. Its new operating system, expected to better browse the web and be app friendly, is considered a make-or-break product for RIM.

Its market share also fell in other countries studied in the report. It was down 11.1 per cent in the U.K., nine per cent in France, 20.3 per cent in Spain and six per cent in Brazil. There was no data on market share in Canada.

RIM is scheduled to release its next financial report on Dec. 20, for the fiscal third quarter ending on Dec. 1.

Keep fucking with this stock....see what happens when REAL WORLD numbers start coming out.

Think I have made my mind up. I will be copping the Blackberry 10 Z-10.

 

[Michael_Malice]

Been researching Blackberry 10 hard these last few weeks and even more impressed. The "port-a-thon" they held this weekend brought like 20,000 more apps over to Blackberry World. Leaks dropping like crazy lately. That time shift camera is raw. BBM Video calls. Can't wait to get my hands on this Z-10. I'm copping the White one.

Will this be the Official Blackberry 10 thread or can we start a new one?

 

[CJ]

I gotta say I thought BB was done but this new phone looking like a problem..

 

[Michael_Malice]

Rumors that the Blackberry 10 devices will be priced under $199.99 price range. Possible $149.99 on two year contract. I can dig that. RIM with aggressive pricing? I can dig it.

Damn B??? What carrier you on? Man I'm about to make the Official Blackberry 10 thread. I'm so hype for this joint right now. I can't even make it to lunch without my iPhone needing to be charged.

How many apps will RIM have in total come launch time?

 

[buttuh_b]

Apple is already losing market share in the smartphone field.

 

[alvarez_313]

Blackberry is too late to the game with this one.. This is what the Storm should've been.. I was a blackberry fan for years.. Every phone I've had for the past like 7 years+ was a blackberry.. In November I went with the Galaxy S3.. I will admit I still kinda miss the physical keyboard but eh.. I still fuck with them at work cause I run the BES here so I'm sure I'll get to play with one.. Maybe I'll be more excited about it then..

 

[Ounceman]

The the new interface is reminiscent and similar to the meego os. and blackberry hub reminds me alot of the peoples hub on WP8. but how many apps will RIM have come launch time?
