Abstract: The BlackBerry Z10 is the first of BlackBerry's (formerly Research In Motion's) handsets to use the BlackBerry 10 operating system. We've already reviewed some of the handset's key features, but what's it really like to use it as your day-to-day phone?The...
RIM dug deep to give the slick-looking BlackBerry Z10 enough features to satisfy both consumers and professionals -- like a good camera and a sharp user interface
The Z10's unintuitive gesture paradigm creates a learning curve, and a long list of OS inefficiencies and omissions sour the experience. The bare-bones maps app and a deficit of camera features are two examples

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