Blackberry Z10 Ponsel Cerdas Penunjang Aktivitas

The Z10 is the first phone from BlackBerry running on the new BlackBerry 10 platform. The company, heretofore known as RIM, is putting all its might behind the new platform and the devices. And it has to. The brand is fast slipping away in terms of market share and more importantly, mind
and they cannot afford to make any mistakes. You can say this is a do or die situation for them. But is the Z10 ready to take on such a responsibility? And can the new platform be able to take the brand back to its heydays? Let's find out.

Design
When it comes to design, BlackBerry phones have always had sense of simplicity and sophistication to them. The devices aren't flashy in any way but still manage to look attractive in their own understated manner. The Z10 is no different. It's a charmingly handsome phone and easily one if the best looking devices on the market.

 The front of the Z10 are capped by the two plastic strips at the top and bottom, sandwiching the glass section in the middle. There are absolutely no buttons on the front because the OS doesn't need any (more on that later). Above the display sits the earpiece, the front facing camera, the light sensor and proximity sensor and a rather bright notification LED.

The sides of the Z10 feature a sturdy plastic surface that almost feels like its made out of metal. You'll find the volume control keys on the right, the microUSB and micro HDMI port on the left, the power button and the 3.5mm headphone jack on top and the loudspeaker below. The loudspeaker slot is cleverly placed and also works as a notch to remove the battery cover.  


The ergonomics of the device are also quite good. Because the Z10 only has a 4.2-inch display, the proportions of the phone are quite manageable, which makes it using singlehandedly a breeze. The flat sides also makes gripping the phone easy. All the controls are within easy reach as well. One small note about the volume control keys is that they are perhaps bit too easy to press and would have benefitted from a slightly stiffer mechanism.
Overall, the BlackBerry Z10 looks and feels great and is currently one of the best devices out on the market in terms of industrial design.

Display
The BlackBerry Z10 has a 4.2-inch, 1280 x 768 resolution LCD. The display on the phone is one of the finest I’ve seen and looks absolutely amazing. It’s nice and bright, even under sunlight and the colors, contrast and viewing angles are all top notch. At times, it does feel a bit small, especially compared to some of its rivals from the Android camp, but for someone like an iPhone user this would definitely feel like an upgrade. Overall, top marks for the display.

Hardware and Software
The BlackBerry Z10 runs on a Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 MSM8960 SoC, with a dual-core 1.5GHz Krait CPU and Adreno 225 GPU. In terms of memory, the phone has a healthy 2GB of RAM, with 16GB storage space and microSD card slot.
The software on the Z10 is a major departure from previous BlackBerry phones. The new BlackBerry 10 operating system is built on the QNX platform, just like the PlayBook OS and shares little with the previous version of the smartphone OS.
A completely new OS means a new UI and that's what you get with BB10. First of all, you'll notice that the phone does not have any hardware control buttons for navigating within the UI, nor are there any immediately visible on the screen. To go to the homescreen, BB10 makes you swipe up from the bottom of the screen, at which point the current app minimizes and turns into a tile on the
