A look at the Blackberry Z10 smartphone - the first QNX phone. BlackBerry Z10: new flagship under a magnifying glass All about the blackberry z10 smartphone

A couple of years ago, one notable device appeared on the market of mobile devices, which immediately caught the attention of the store police. The gadget did an excellent job of practically handling all tasks in the new office, and all control was based on gestures.

Well, the subject of today’s review is the BlackBerry Z10 smartphone: characteristics, descriptions, advantages and shortcomings of the model, as well as the thoughts of the experts in a row with the opinions of ordinary gadget owners.

What kind of fruit?

Z10 is, in essence, that very charming stroll that allowed Canadians to turn with great style into the market of mobile devices and take their rightful place there. Previously, Blackberry and its products were destroyed by the aphids of “Chinese”, “Korean” and “apple” gadgets. But after the release of the new BlackBerry Z10 STL100 with a unique operating system, the competition flared up. Even this new device has attracted a lot of potential clients, who have warmed them up to the new creation of Blackberry from the already collected iPhones, Androids and Windows.

The smartphone is seriously upgrading from the leading lines released by the venerable brand. Even a lot of people who use various mobile devices took a fresh look at the company’s products. Let’s try to be more careful about how we can get the upcoming Z10 gadget from Blackberry.

Design

The external appearance of a brand new device can truly be called beautiful. With its pictures, it almost reminds you of the fifth version of the iPhone, and even more importantly, you won’t see the “DoHome” button here.

The Wikonian gadget is made of matte and glossy plastic, and even brighter. This is not only visible visually, but also visible on the dot. Lying in the valley of the Z10, you feel that in your hands you have a monolithic device without any problems or shortcomings.

There is no such kind of rice on the candy bar itself. The model can be called correct from an ergonomic point of view. The device lies comfortably in your hand, and there is absolutely no discomfort during the hour of operation. A corrugated texture is applied to the back of the gadget, so the smartphone does not slip out of your hands. With all its modern appearance, the device was intended to talk about those that are intended for a business audience: elegant, classically beautiful and strict, without any frills or other “cheerful” surroundings.

interfaces

On the right side of the BlackBerry (OS 10), the button to start voice search and the volume goader were manually removed. Before speech, in numerical speeches, no one can lick the storm of a joke that is not fully thought out. It’s not Google Voice or Siri, which will make you laugh. The model is even more sensitive to intonation and behavior in general, so the vocal sound is clearly not the same as the BlackBerry Z10. The characteristics of the goydalka are very pleasing: the pressure is turned off in a variety of trousers or jeans, and during the hour of work it is completely pliable.

On the left side of the device you can install two connectors - micro-HDMI (for connecting to a monitor) and micro-USB (for intermittent charging and synchronization with a personal computer). The interfaces need a lot of space, so using docking stations is not easy or comfortable on the BlackBerry Z10. The characteristics of previous models made it possible to calmly work with the periphery using the structure of special contacts on the body, and in the Z10, unfortunately, such a moment is not transferred.

At the top end, clearly in the center, there was a button to wake up the gadget to wake up the smartphone from sleep mode. Just to the left there is a 3.5 mm port for use with a headset and headphones.

On the back there is a metal logo, and in the upper right corner there is an 8 MP camera. Let's talk about this ability a little bit below. There is nothing on the bottom end of the gadget except a small groove for removing the cover.

It is also important to note that the model uses an external battery for smartphones, which is of a small type, which means it can be easily replaced in any emergency situation with a spare one. Under the cover there are slots for micro-SD cards, with the possibility of “hot” replacement, as well as a place for micro-SIM cards.

The gadget does not have any special or noticeable buttons. Everything is approximately the same as with other similar components. However, the BlackBerry Z10's body features its own unique features, which are not immediately visible. Everything on the right is made up of small magnets built into the structure of the smartphone. The smell indicates that the device has entered sleep mode. For everything to be suitable, you need a proprietary BlackBerry Z10 case. The process is simple: you put the device in the case - the screen goes off, you pull it out - it lights up. The rulers in their speeches more than once gave this originality a high rating. It can immediately be noted for the owners of “Apple” products that the Smart Cover for iPad is not a perfect example of such a feature, since Blackberry became the pioneers of this principle.

frame

The material of the body and the structure itself as a whole need to be taken care of - everything is put together very well, and without any complaints. Despite the obvious fact that the back cover is loose (you can connect an external battery for smartphones), the gadget does not creak, does not play, and does not crunch.

The device is sold in two colors - classic black and white. If you apply the zusilla, you can find a model with an interspersed lot of red color, but this is very rare. While the price of the BlackBerry Z10 (price is approximately 14,000 rubles), the balance of price and benefit is, in principle, a matter of balance.

screen

The wake-up gadget screen is on a TFT matrix with a separate section of 1280 x 768 pixels with a diagonal of 4.2 \u200b\u200b inches. The characteristics are, of course, simple, but the picture is bright and clear. It’s good to know about the automatic brightness control, because here it’s extremely effective: in a poorly lit screen you can’t blind your eyes, and on a sleepy day all the details are clearly visible. The only drawback that Vlasniks complain about in their vogues is that auto-adjustment is not turned on, although this moment cannot be called critical.

Also, the screen of the BlackBerry Z10 looks like a nasty piece of paper, but doesn’t care about the TFT layout. There are no problems when looking at the animal or from the side: the colors are not inverted, the contrast “does not dance.” Zvidihi, the display of Mig Boti I is more painful, for this strategic \ u200b \ u200bi Sereyozo Model, Yak Z10, Ale, invisible on the tse, the photo of the node is navigated in the compan of one and a single-dummy without special problems.

Camera

The BlackBerry Z10 gadget (firmware 10.3.1.2243) is equipped with an 8 MP camera that can capture video in high resolution Full HD format. There are also bright light-colored bedrooms for more correct sleep. By the way, the whole set is like in any other business-class smartphone, on the same “iPhone” of the fifth series.

There are no special buttons for activating the camera, so all basic actions (capturing and focusing) are required through additional manipulation on the touch screen. I’m sorry that there is no adjustment either. The company promises to update this moment with the latest firmware, so it will be possible to take photos without individual adjustments for the past century, and such a photo will be suitable at least for Instagram, but for now it’s okay.

In principle, the camera in the BlackBerry Z10 LTE is not needed for anything, especially in a device designed for the business segment. In any case, you can knock a proper girl on the street without any problems, but, unfortunately, you won’t be able to get a high-quality photo.

productivity

BlackBerry (OS 10) is equipped with TI OMAP 4470 processors, which support dual-core platforms at a clock frequency of 1.5 GHz. There is also 2 GB of RAM on board, which can be used for almost everything.

The gadget can be used smoothly, the process does not freeze, it’s not a freeze, and no serious problems were noted, which is good news. The only benchmark that mostly works correctly with this platform is Geekbench. The result of the results is even worse - 1430 points. The performance can be compared with the same “iPhone” fifth series, “Samsung” “Galaxy” 3 and HTS One S.

Autonomous robot

The model is equipped with a 1800 mAg lithium-ion battery. Such a capacity for a heavy processor and a large screen is clearly not enough. A larger battery option for such characteristics is 2400 or 2200 mAg. It’s not entirely clear what the company’s engineers were doing when they assembled the gadget.

However, despite such a modest battery capacity, the device can run for about 1-2 days on a full charge, and in active mode. The virus specialist promises the ruler 17 days of work in the cleanup mode. No matter how bad it is, the only thing we have on smartphones is that they don’t vikorize anyone. In principle, the problem of autonomy of the device easily depends on the need for an external battery, which the same NTS and iPhone do not have, so this moment can be called critical with great stretch.

Z10's closest competitors

Since the Z10 is the rightful flagship of Blackberry, we will elevate the gadget to the top devices of other venerable brands. It may be that it has been updated and the song has been removed, since the very philosophy of these devices is different, but in any world it will help buyers to make a purchase and put the caps on "i".

iPhone 5

It all comes down to the popularity of the platform for retailers. Naturally, Apple resources have more all kinds of add-ons for the iPhone than Blackberry. As long as there is a shortage of technical warehouses, gadgets are on the rise.

The Z10 is not much worse than the same iPhone: a well-designed camera, an ergonomic body, a very nice look, and, most importantly, a smart and intuitively sensible interface. The price of the most modest configuration of the iPhone fifth series is equal to the price of the Z10, which is why there is a relish and “worship” of any particular brand.

Samsung Galaxy S IV

"Galaxy" S series is rightfully respected by the leader of "Android" -Brother. For his technical data, he easily steps over the heels of the iPhone and our Z10. Ale, not less than a number of fresh foods are still in the area.

One of these moments - even though the screen is already hypertrophied, through which the Galaxy not only looks significantly larger than the Z10, but also suffers from extremely unbalanced ergonomics - it is simply impossible to handle it with one hand. In addition, autonomous work was by no means a strong point of Android devices. Without being a culprit, the Galaxy literally eats up the battery in a matter of minutes.

In terms of all software, “Android” closely matches “Apple”, and is also noticeably ahead of the Z10. When there is a shortage of robots in a task-rich environment, Blackberry is surprisingly coming to the fore - the system works much better than Android and Apple at once. So for clear and problem-free rich tasks - please go to the counter with Z10.

Supply pouches

Judging by a number of experts in this field, Blackberry has managed to revive and embellish its product line with a new flagship. Thus, the gadget was equipped with a standard QWERTY keyboard, but then replaced the smart and large screen with a completely new operating system. The features of the new OS are similar to those of other competing platforms, but the features are radically different.

Generally and in general, working with the BlackBerry Z10 (price - about 14,000 rubles) - one is satisfied, both with the smartphone itself and with its operating system.

It may be that Blackberry’s ecosystem is not as well developed as that of Android or iOS, and finding the main add-on is not a problem. However, such a stagnation can be called temporary, since the OS is fresh, so you won’t have to wait for a wide variety of software. It seems that the country will be able to gradually enjoy it, as it was the case with the loss of the Windows mobile phone.

If we talk about the bitterness of the Viconn, then the Blackberry flagship does not compromise at all on the iPhone. The Z10 is already competing with models from other vendors, and the only thing that is facing the process of conquering the mobile market is a lot of software.

Another leading telecommunications giant in China is aiming to achieve success in the development of gadgets, especially actively targeting the market of low-cost devices - in which they have received a large number of new products that have been released within the budget sub-brand Blade. Our hero today is unique in this regard. It’s not Blade, it’s not Axon, it’s not nubia, it’s not the “pure” ZTE.

It ranks a little lower in the Chinese company’s rankings than the Blade V7, which we recently talked about. The body is not metal, but plastic; display with HD, not Full HD resolution; The platform is NOT eight-core, but four-core - made by Qualcomm. In terms of dimensions, the models are similar - the Z10 is positioned more like a female model, which is supported by both a thin body and lower body finishes: “black stone”, “youthful rye”, “deep blue” and “terracotta”.

⇡ Technical characteristics

⇡ Design, ergonomics and safety software

ZTE Z10 does not have to follow the address code that was previously accepted only in high-end brands, and now applies to all smartphones - the materials of the case cannot be described simply by the words “metal” and “hard”. The edges and back panel are made of soft-touch plastic, made of different colors (depending on modification). But at the same time, the front panel is present (the front panel, of course) - and not just, but, as it is, accepted, 2.5D - slightly curved to the edges, which makes it easier to use a smartphone.

There are also inclusions of metal: a loudspeaker panel above the display, a camera lens bezel, a thin edging on the front panel, hardware keys and, without a seat, a small panel near the power button.

It’s easy to say that the ZTE Z10 looks very good as a result, and we can say that it’s purebred, it’s very rare for a budget smartphone. In the case of the association with Apple, it is imperative that you do not get involved - otherwise, in this case, the stench will be stronger; There's no smell of copy here.

The Z10 is pleasant to use - it is a thin and light gadget that easily fits into your lap, and it is not difficult to reach any point on the display with the same hand. Dimensions: 147.5 × 72.8 × 7.6 mm. Masa: 130 grams.

It will be frustrating to only see the large black-colored panel under the screen - it does not display any brown elements on the icon of the touch keys for navigating through the system. The stench is almost virtual and vanishes the surface of the display. And the panel is idle, it’s here for symmetry.

The keys and ports are located in places that are essential for a modern Android smartphone: both turning on and adjusting the volume - under the thumb of the right hand; minijack beast; slot for SIM cards and memory cards - evil; The charging interface is either connected to the computer at the bottom, as well as the speaker - it is in the right direction, left, again, for symmetry, the same scenario for the ZTE Z10. The port, to speak of - microUSB, we are already starting to expand.

There is also no finger scanner here - in fact, this is even an old-fashioned smartphone.

The launch of the BlackBerry Z10 resulted in a super enthusiastic reaction from BlackBerry fans. Some advocated for the company to introduce a physical keyboard, while others decided to follow current trends in the smartphone market. However, later it became clear that the company does not intend to focus on its characteristic product - the physical keyboard, but is simply diversifying its products. Things turned out better. Those, who still benefit from a touchscreen keyboard and large displays, have lost the ability to work on the current and popular BlackBerry 10 operating system. The characteristics of the BlackBerry Z10 surpassed its competitors in many ways at the time of release , which puts it on par with the popular gadgets that have come out significantly later than Z10.

For a long time, RIM rested on the laurels of the enterprise segment and believed that the appearance of the iPhone would threaten everyone but it. RIM's executives firmly believed that corporate clients would lose the Blackberry operating system without being fooled by the beautiful iOS interface, which would give priority to the use of additional programs for the main function - robots with mail. One of the largest market leaders, the Motorola company, pursued approximately the same views in the late 90s, respectfully saving part of the market and business interests. It turned out that all the booms had gone to waste and serious people in suits began to buy phones not only for work, but also for fun - they were attracted by the opportunity not only to do business, but also to play in the city . In 2010, a group of people made the same amends to RIM, wanting to correct it several times. Having missed the boom of touch phones, the company was trying to aggressively turn its leadership in the corporate segment. The reasons for these mistakes are clearly described in several materials, I recommend this axis to you.

The QNX platform, which RIM bought in 2010, was intended to enter the segment of integrated computer systems in cars, which aims to show rapid growth. The company was working on its future, including here. But at the moment when RIM was informed that they had smartphones with these developments that they had every day, they began to vikorize QNX and here - that’s how smartphones appeared directly on this OS. Initially, the release of QNX smartphones was planned for the end of 2011, but then the date was postponed, the announcement of the first device was made at the end of 2013. It’s cool that the first smartphone on this platform is a long-lived one, but it has grown apart for so long that before its release it lost its original shine.

From the point of view of the positioned model Blackberry Z10, this is the sign of the Blackberry company (along with the announcement of RIM, becoming Blackberry) to turn to the market and take an active part in the segment of current devices. This is the flagship of the company, which is like manna from heaven for Blackberry lovers and this is the foundation that the company is building its way up to the growth of the market parts. The description of the product was allowed only in the highest stages, the entire presentation was about the revolutions that began with the release of the Z10. If we just throw away all the lush, then we have a product that can be a useful toy for those who have money and have a lucky escape from the past using devices from RIM.

A surprising situation has arisen on the market, since two platforms dominate - iPhone and Android. They are simple, sensible, good-natured and have become boring in this world. Very often people want to find an alternative to these platforms, and get them new. Of course, we are not talking about all people, but only about MAVERIK, those who are looking for new enemies - their number at this time was small. Some people call them geeks or technology enthusiasts. These people do not buy a product in order to rip it out of the box, to get the opportunity to rummage through the insides, to learn the possibilities, and the more rare the product, the greater the process of its conversion. Perhaps you can find another platform that would be even more attractive for this audience - MeeGo. The first and last smartphone on MeeGo for the general public is Nokia N9.

There are no parallels between Nokia N9 and Blackberry Z10. Both products are flagships and companies have placed great faith in them. There was a lot of PR and gala around both systems. Moreover, the Blackberry Z10 ideologically copies the MeeGo and Nokia N9 interface, which most people either don’t remember or would rather not remember.

The importance of these devices lies solely in the fact that MeeGo was driven by the will of Stephen Elop, the president of Nokia. With the support of Nokia, this system had no chance of gaining a foothold in the market. Blackberry 10 in current situation for the same company has no such chances. On the other hand, there are a large number of Blackberry products on this operating system, and the Z10 is not the first and only product.

Check out Nokia N9

Cream of geeks, this product is great for those who feel nostalgic for good old watches and Blackberry smartphones. The company's shoemakers carefully check out famous models and do not discard them because they are bored; they can choose the Z10 as an object to realize their nostalgia. I hope that there will be a lot of such people and they will form a great group of buyers. Unfortunately, it is not possible to talk about the fact that the Blackberry Z10 can be distributed to the general public. This is a very cheap model, not guaranteed to be a great success and does not give rise to any change of mind for anyone.

Design, dimensions, core elements

Let me start from the fact that the company traditionally strives for two color solutions - black and white. The same colors are available for the Z10.

Phone size - 130x65.6x9 mm, weight 137.5 grams. The phone fits nicely in your hand, the back wall is made of plastic, it’s velvety, just like a tablet. It’s a pity, all the materials for the case are inexpensive - just plastic and again plastic. Looking at the performance on par with the iPhone 5 and compared to other flagships, we can talk about those that Blackberry decided to greatly protect on materials. While companies try to introduce new materials or technologies in their flagships, Blackberry has produced neither. I've been wanting to equate the Z10 with the Sony Xperia Z all the time, because of the fact that the front and back panels can be covered with innovation in materials. The new Nokia N9 was released in a case that was unusual for that time.

On the other hand, we can say that it is easier to revise solutions over time and do not require embarking on daring experiments; rich people need transferability. So they definitely won’t be disappointed in the Z10, even after the upgrades.

At the top end of the device there is an on/off button and a 3.5 jack for a headset. On the left side there is a microHDMI connector and a microUSB connector for the charging device. On the right side there is a paired key for adjusting the volume, in the middle there is a voice command button. On the back, you can see an 8-megapixel lens and a LED light.

The LED indicator was placed on the front surface, right-handed, in front of the speaker grille. Є proximity sensor, front camera. The design of this device does not suggest a great deal of individuality, as is reminiscent of many current smartphones - the unique look that was customary for the Blackberry in the past is not to be feared here. It will be important to see this device from a distance, like the Motorola Droid X.

There is no way to collect any claims by phone, everything will be done quickly and easily. The back cover opens easily, in the middle you can place a battery pulled out vertically, as well as a slot for microSD cards and microSIM. Also, allow me to show you the same photos with other phones.

Upgrade from BlackBerry Bold 9930

display

Flagships of 2012 have small screens with a diagonal of 4.5-4.7 inches and HD-separated 1280x720 pixels, in 2013 the trend has become a slight increase in diagonal while saving size in the body and increased resolution to Full HD (1920x1080 pixels). Since the Blackberry Z10 is due to appear in 2012, it has the latest generation screen - characteristics typical for flagships of the past: 4.2 inches, 1280x720 pixels, 355 dpi. The brightness of the screen is adjusted automatically, but you cannot turn on this option (typically a company solution if there are problems with energy consumption). A welcome novelty lies in the fact that, no less, the brightness setting has been preserved, which can be set manually (it is from this level that the backlight is regulated). For my taste, there is no need to make a bad, compromise decision - but Nokia, as a rule, did not give such possiblity.

Screen 15: 9, which is a little unimportant, but does not cause any inconvenience. At the end of the day it shines, but not much - the picture blooms, but is completely readable.

Best of all, you can adjust the size of the fonts, from lacy and small to gigantic. We will accept the help of those who may be weakening their eyes. Perhaps only Z10 and Samsung smartphones have added respect to this parameter, which is of great importance for rich people.

The indicator light when reading web pages or books is clearly visible in the lower part of the screen, so you can rub someone with your baby, but before this feature the device beeps.

Upgrading the brightness of pictures from Full HD displays does not hurt the sense, so the Z10 upgrade will work. This can be compared with the Galaxy S3, which is currently on the market and will soon be replaced.

Alignment of screens with Samsung Galaxy S3 (at the top of the frame)

The last thing I want to do is to carefully look around the Z10 or bring it to the keyboard cabinet - the printer has stood a little separately from competitors' touch screen devices in order to be able to press the softness. Perhaps this device is remarkable for the quality of this parameter itself, when typing text on the keyboard it exhibits softness, smoothness and simplicity. There is nothing like this on Android smartphones or iPhones. For some, this may be a compelling argument. Apart from this parameter, the display does not show any advantages, just a little old for 2013. The transmission of color and brightness are far from maximum, but it is good quality, nothing more.

battery

Blackberry phones have always been famous for the fact that they last a long time, and this was one of the brand's features and strengths. Already in the Blackberry 9900, the work hour became a weak point, as most of the borrowers suffered. There was hope that with the release of the new OS, optimization of the code and the replacement of the old chipset would allow us to achieve trivial work, but that did not happen.

The phone uses a lithium-ion battery with a capacity of 1800 mAg. According to the manufacturer's request, the manufacturer will provide up to 310 years of operation in the cooldown mode and up to 10 years in the wash mode. In my opinion, these exponents are even disingenuous, since in normal life the device works for much less than an hour of work, which is heavily delayed depending on what you work and how you charge it.

Let’s talk about the charging device - the complete charging has the following parameters: 5V, 750 mAg. With this, it will take exactly three years to charge the battery, so you may not be able to get enough of it. As an option, unplug your phone for a while. You can use charging devices with a high current (1A or 2A), in which case you will shorten the battery life, otherwise, at 2A, you will spend about 1.5 years on recharging. Here it is the responsibility of the individual to choose for himself what is most attractive to him.

It so happened that while working on the Z10, I gradually discharged the device before lunch and took external batteries with me, which allowed me to discover a funny and useful thing. The phone uses some kind of “reasonable” charging algorithm, which, perhaps, identifies a “foreign” charging device - the charging hour becomes incredibly long, and a couple of devices did not work with the Z10 at all, the phone simply turned them off.

In the years since the smartphone, not everything is going smoothly in the military minds; there’s a lot to be learned from the way you use vikorist programs. For example, the phone comes pre-installed with Twitter/Facebook add-ons, and if they are used, the device begins to heat up mercilessly. As you can imagine, the hotter the phone gets, the faster the battery drains. It is less clear how primary clients of social media can create such an obsession with the processor, but the case becomes unacceptably hot and the battery charge evaporates on the eyes. With an average amount of screen light and Twitter off, you can completely drain the battery in a couple of years. In normal, everyday life, with tens of dozens of devices, twenty devices in between via 3G, paired SMS, this device is alive for more than half a day. For the same popular iPhone, it will provide at least 24 years of operation and will lose another 15-20 watts of charge. The difference in work hours is significant and is often attributed to poorly optimized software. For example, I realized that when listening to music, the work hour would also be minimal, but it turned out to be even higher. If you install a third-party player, you will avoid heating the case and reduce the operating time.

In the most optimistic scenario, you lose one bright day of work, which means that you no longer need to use your phone (I had to check my mail every 30 minutes, and for social services and so on - permanent inclusions Wi-Fi). It is possible that if there is a lack of mail or social restrictions, you can extend the hour of work until the second day. Ale here you need to give food, chi varto take the apparatus, at what hour there is so little work. I just guessed the situation with the HTC One X, which cannot be used under pressure and has been alive for 5-6 years. The Blackberry Z10 is similar, with a weak battery and unoptimized software. True, there are different options for filling the device, which affect its productivity and efficiency.

Skoda, because the status bar does not show the operating hour of the phone as a percentage, in the “Settings” section you can find an indication of the battery charge, and the duration of the battery is 5 hundred, which is unimportant, and which cannot be explained in any way.

Hardware platform, productivity

The model is available in two versions - with the TI OMAP 4470 chipset, which has a dual-core processor with a maximum frequency of 1.5 GHz (model STL100-1), and also on the MSM8960 chipset from Qualcomm - also dual-core and thus often That is, the importance of only in support of LTE. There are three versions of chipsets from Qualcomm - STL100-2, STL100-3, STL100-4, they are divided by frequencies and regions of expansion.

In review, I can see the STL100-1 model, and, to complete this material, I know the model from Qualcomm and tried to equalize them in the new versions (STL100-2). The trial appeared noticeable not only with a stopwatch in hand, but also clearly on the eye. The STL100-1 model was warming up more quickly, while the STL100-2 was not so “hot” in basic tasks and worked longer. When only Wi-Fi is down, the Qualcomm chipset will be noticeable, giving a significant increase in operating hours of 15-20 hundredths. At the same time, when they began to use the 3G mobile network, the chipset from Qualcomm was found to be three times less effective (though I especially felt otherwise).

According to subjective opinions, the STL100-1 model is not as good as other options; it has a better energy saving system. This does not give a huge increase in the hours of life of the phone, but it’s all the same. Subjectively, the number of hangups on the Qualcomm chipset is also less (it’s possible that it’s just not as hard to test the phone, not to restore all accounts, etc.).

There are no complaints about the fluidity of the phone in the system add-ons, interface. Everything is done smoothly and smoothly, but such smoothness as on the iPhone 5, unfortunately, cannot be avoided. Shvidko, maybe it’s not like that, maybe even better. For most workers, the productivity of the robot will be sufficient. True, there is one trick here - with a heated case, the hour for starting the add-ons increases, and the speed of their work changes. Sometimes the add-ons naturally freeze, and you wait until the phone recovers them from memory.

Memory, memory cards

The device is only available in one version with 16 GB of built-in memory, from which 10.8 GB is available to you. You can install a microSD memory card with a capacity of up to 64 GB, which will solve all your memory problems. In my opinion, there are more people than there are, and there are no pitfalls here.

The amount of RAM is 2 GB, of which 1.3 GB after installing the system. The memory can have up to 8 extensions open, ensuring sufficient memory for all tasks. However, memory management is not optimal; situations often arise when you try to acquire a new add-on until your phone is fully operational, requiring you to lock the add-ons in memory in order to speed up its operation.

communication capabilities

When connected to a PC, the phone automatically detects the operating system (MacOS / Windows) and prompts you to install Blackberry Link, which is connected to the company’s website. Only after installing this program, drivers will be installed to allow the phone to store memory as a replacement device. To map the memory of such dances with a tambourine, it is not necessary, it is immediately visible as a changeable nose.

In my opinion, this is a really bad idea, since it only interconnects the Z10 connections in places where you can install a secure synchronization program (as you are not using the card, but only the memory). When connected, you can see a virtual disk with drivers and an installation file, but the attempt to install the drivers manually was unsuccessful (in Windows, it’s less possible to restart the computer - is there anything like the original USB Mass Storage?).

Bluetooth version 4.0, NFC support, as well as dual-band Wi-Fi 802.11 a / b / g / n and hardware GPS. There is nothing to say here - everything is working, and thanks for that.

Camera - photo and video

At Blackberry, people didn't pay much attention to the cameras in their phones and didn't care about megapixels. The Z10, first for Blackberry, has an 8-megapixel camera with a light-emitting diode (the OmniVision OV8830 chip with BSI2 technology is available).

You can click on the camera by clicking on its icon, and you will get a very simple interface. You can withdraw by touching the screen in any place (if a serial recording is set up, it will go as long as you touch your finger). The focus point can be changed by pulling it to the side. You can also zoom in on a picture with your fingers. Geotags are supported, the robot slept in automatic mode.

Only Time Shift, the technology of the company Scalado, which was recently purchased by Nokia, and the like in Lumia are worth guessing. You can take a few photos of your friends' faces and then choose the look that suits you. So, without having to choose different photographs, you can train the right people. It’s a useful function, but it’s not so useful in everyday life.

The pictures on the phone screen do not look very attractive, and the illumination when viewing them is not even bright (and which cannot be corrected in any way). But on the computer they look bad, although the algorithm for increasing their brightness is clearly visible (the brightness is drawn out, the details are lost - the pictures were intended to be brighter). Marvel at the dozens of photos you'll see using the Samsung Galaxy S3.
