The BlackBerry Q10 with re-engineered QWERTY keyboard and 3.1-inch touchscreen
The BlackBerry 10 platform includes a variety of new features and improvements. The new BlackBerry Hub allows you to peek at your inbox from any app without having to stop what you're doing. The touchscreen BlackBerry Keyboard learns your writing style and suggests words to help you type faster, more accurately. And you'll be able to share content and apps right from your device using BBM Video with Screen Share.
You'll be able to outfit your BlackBerry Q10 with a wealth of apps downloaded from BlackBerry World -- games, music, videos, books, magazines and more. You can also browse and preview millions of high-quality DRM-free songs from your favorite artists, as well as download or rent movies and TV shows at BlackBerry World. Plus, the new BlackBerry World storefront gives you recommendations so it's easy to find something new.
The BlackBerry Q10 also features Wireless-N Wi-Fi (802.11b/g/n) networking, Bluetooth 4.0, and Near Field Communication (NFC) technology -- enabling you to make mobile payments, add a BBM contact, or swap photos with just a tap of your phone. Additionally, this phone is Global Ready--enabling you to call, text, and access the Web from more than 205 countries around the world (more than 150 with 3G connectivity).
BlackBerry 10 OS learns and adapts to the way you work.
Meticulous attention has been paid to every detail of the BlackBerry Q10's design, particularly its elegant and ergonomic QWERTY keyboard, which features a wider layout and larger sculpted keys. It's designed to help you type quickly, accurately, and with the least amount of effort, and its smart keyboard software understands and adapts to your typing style. It creates personalized word suggestions and contextual auto corrections while you type. Your conversations can move along without having to waste time fixing typos. Plus with Instant Action, you can type and perform tasks faster by using shortcuts. From the home screen, just type "email Paul" or "call Paul" and the device initiates the action.
When you're not using the QWERTY keyboard, you can access apps and use gestures via the 3.1–inch Super AMOLED touchscreen display with HD 720p resolution (720 x 720 pixels).
Access all your conversations at any time -- from any app -- with BlackBerry Hub, a single place where you can find all of your messages from your social networks to your personal and work e-mails. With a simple swipe, you can flow effortlessly in and out of your messages and conversations, and you can peek into other live apps without having to drop what you're doing. Preview messages from the app you're in, choose to reply, or reverse the gesture to go back to what you were doing.
Switch your BlackBerry Messenger (BBM) text chat to a BBM Video conversation and talk face-to-face with those that matter to you most. Use the new Screen Share feature to show photos, your browser, or review a business document together. You can even share the view from your camera. The BBM app also supports voice calling.
Take great shots with the super-sharp 8-megapixel camera, or switch to the front-facing camera and be part of the scene. Crop, enhance, and apply artistic filters, then display your masterpiece on the big screen for all to see. Simply connect to your TV via HDMI or tap Play on to link wirelessly through DLNA.
Using the camera's Time Shift mode lets you take a picture using an ultra-short video -- capturing milliseconds before and after your photo -- so you can choose the exact moment in time when your subjects look best to create the ideal shot. It lets you select different areas in the same photo, choose the best expressions and poses, and then combine them to create one great shot. Once your photos are the best they can be, use Story Maker to weave them together and make a movie with music to share with the world.
Managing a busy project, or planning this weekend's party? BlackBerry Remember combines memos, tasks and much more into a single experience. It helps you organize and manage information you have on your smartphone around projects or ideas, letting you collect content such as Web sites, e-mails, photos, documents, and other files. Then, like a to-do list, you can create tasks, assign due dates, and track your progress. You can automatically sync your Microsoft Outlook Tasks with BlackBerry Remember, or configure it with your Evernote account.
Use your BlackBerry Q10 smartphone for work, and access e-mail, apps, and documents without compromising your personal content. BlackBerry Balance separates personal content from corporate content, providing freedom and flexibility while satisfying the need for corporate data to be highly secure and manageable. You can switch between your profiles with one simple gesture.
Send a BBM message, schedule a meeting, update your social networks, or open an app when your hands are full -- just by using your voice. Voice Control recognizes natural speech patterns, so you can talk naturally and always be understood. You can use Voice Control anywhere you can type, so it's easy to dictate a document, compose an email or search your smartphone.
Smooth and responsive, the BlackBerry 10 operating system is designed to support, learn, and adapt to the way you work and share.
