The biggest reason for people abandoning BlackBerry in recent years has been the lack of innovation.
#BLACKBERRY Z10 UPDATE SUCKS WINDOWS#
You suspect that Windows Phone will prove to be main rival of BB 10, although Blackberry’s know-how when it comes to smartphones, along with a loyal following, may give them the edge.Īnother thing that needs to change is the BlackBerry App World which is going to need a big overhaul to have any hope of competing with Google’s Play Store, Apple’s App Store and even Windows Phone Marketplace.
#BLACKBERRY Z10 UPDATE SUCKS WINDOWS 8#
That will coincide with the releaseof Microsoft’s Windows 8 desktop operating system which is expected to integrate with Windows Phones.
#BLACKBERRY Z10 UPDATE SUCKS UPGRADE#
RIM’s high-end BlackBerry phones will most likely have almost the same price, which will seriously affect its sales – many buyers can prefer the famous Samsung flagship.īlackBerry may also have competition from Windows Phone which is set for an upgrade from Windows Phone 7 to 8 this year.
#BLACKBERRY Z10 UPDATE SUCKS FOR ANDROID#
As for Android phones, they’re very competitive thanks to their low prices – even the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S3 is going to cost about $700 SIM-free, and the contract versions’ monthly fees are also rather affordable.
After all, Apple is a very famous brand, and a huge number of people buy their products only because it’s prestigious. It’s probably fair to say that BlackBerry has now fallen too far behind Android and Apple to ever become a serious threat in terms of reclaiming a large share of the market. QNX is a company that manufactures industrial grade operating systems for cars they also happen to be a company owned by RIM. The reason for this is that BlackBerry 10 is QNX-based software. Suggestions are that RIM is also planning to put BB 10 into cars which would give them another market. For this reason, RIM has said that it plans to continue releasing traditional physical keyboard devices on the BB 10 platform, alongside their touchscreen smartphones and tablets. The inclusion of a physical keyboard has always been a unique selling point for BlackBerry and still attracts a lot of people. Of course, what we have seen far on BlackBerry 10 is only a limited amount, but first impression count for a lot and it looks good. There is also a new camera present which allows you to adjust and edit photos on the fly by capturing a few frames before you press the shutter button. The new interface also allows you to swipe apps and separate screens with apps, vastly improving the user-experience and preventing you from having to navigate back to the homescreen to enter another app. Impressive features included an adaptive touchscreen keyboard (that’s right, RIM are going to be producing more phones without physical keyboards) that offers gesture based typing for easier communication and that can adjust to your typing style. Be patient, be intelligent enough, and please don't whine and blame.RIM seems to have wiped the slate clean with BB 10 and produced an OS with much emphasis on user-friendliness. There should be no reason you cannot do the same for your own devices. But once you get things right, you will be happy with your BB10 device like its brand new, as I said.Īs for me, I didnt have any problems upgrading my Passport, Z30, Q10 and Z10 devices.
Dont simplify things because this is not a simple update, it's a huge update.
Search blackberry forums for any technical issues. Remember to update also the apps like BBM because they have to sync up to the new OS. So it is not a simple matter of downloading it and everything snaps automatically into place. So much so that it will make your BB10 device looking and feeling as if brand new again. This is one big OS update which the community has been eagerly waiting for and such a huge update is huge because of the new features that come with it. Please be patient and stop whining here and there, and please STOP blaming Blackberry for any difficulties you are going though if you yourself do not understand the whole process of downloading and updating apps. To all BB 10 users out there updating to 10.3.1:
