LIME has announced it will be launching the new BlackBerry® Z10 smartphone powered by BlackBerry® 10 across the region later this year. The new BlackBerry Z10 is the first BlackBerry smartphone to launch with the re-designed, re-engineered and re-invented BlackBerry 10 platform, offering customers a powerful and unique new mobile computing experience. The BlackBerry Z10 is the fastest and most advanced BlackBerry smartphone yet, and offers a smarter experience that continuously adapts to a customer’s needs.
“As one of the first companies to offer BlackBerry service in the Caribbean we are very excited to introduce another revolution from RIM to LIME customers. The BlackBerry 10 platform is a highly anticipated mobile experience which demonstrates RIM’s attention and response to consumer demand. This is one of the most exciting offers smartphone users worldwide will get this year, and social media everywhere, including across the region, is already buzzing with expectations,” explained Grace Silvera, LIME’s Regional Vice President, Marketing and Corporate Communications.
“The BlackBerry Z10 smartphone delivers a powerful new platform for BlackBerry customers. Combined with the network and service plans from LIME, BlackBerry Z10 customers will be delighted with a re-invented communication experience, seamless multitasking, easy access to multiple social networks, and the peace of mind that BlackBerry security gives them,” said Carlo Chiarello, EVP, Global Smartphone Business at RIM.
BlackBerry 10 gives customers a faster and smarter experience that continuously adapts to their needs. Every feature, every gesture, and every detail is designed to keep customers moving and includes advancements such as:
• Peek and Flow into the BlackBerry Hub – A new mobile computing paradigm where what matters to customers is always only one swipe away
• Keyboard – Understands and adapts to customers, so they can type faster and more accurately
• BBM™ (BlackBerry® Messenger) – Allows customers to share things with the people that matter to them in an instant
• BlackBerry® Balance™ technology – Protects what is important to customers and the businesses they work for
The new phone is nothing to smooze about, even the ones who make it says that it’s no good. And it cost an arm and a leg . Go to bed without dinner for a week buy a phone?
I am a big advocate to trending technology. The Z10 is a very good phone but the network on which it has to work in the Caribbean defeats the purpose of the phone which was built for speed. I think the companies need to upgrade their network 1st in order to have the phone and available features working at optimum level. Whats the point of a 4G phone working on 3G or less?
i second that…..but i cannot wait to get the new BB
RIM changed its name to Blackberry … LIME need to do some research
Unquestionably believe that which you said. Your favourite justification seemed to be at the net the easiest factor to keep in mind of. I say to you, I definitely get irked while people consider issues that they just don’t understand about. You controlled to hit the nail upon the highest and defined out the entire thing without having side effect , people can take a signal. Will probably be again to get more. Thanks
u people doe tied make phone pa pa gad what will be the new one? one that can bend and is indestructible
updated phones with slow internet speed whats the point?!
If all them new phones lime launching are so good why their workers always have the old time bb’s and iphone? Maybe them older models working better for them?
Idk about other people but for me it’s about stability of a software. Because of that I use an iphone, ios to me is >>>> than that of Jelly bean or other androids os.
That doesn’t mean Apple has the best phone. Personally in terms of hardware Samsung is it right now. But i prefer to use the iphone instead of the galaxy because of the software. Androids crashes too often.
That model yet to release
It comes out in March…
comes out in march for the united states, launched today in the uk , launches feb 5th in Canada.
God alone knows when its gonna get here; and you know its gonna cost tete neg
I was just gonna say they advertising it like is 5cents but they doesnt say the price thou in there backside, well imma bb less n thats how ill stay
They doesn’nt….wow..who says that?
who care? seriously?
The New Phone still has some bugs that have to be worked out check the Video.. http://www.theverge.com/2013/1/30/3929760/blackberry-z10-review#ooid=5lZm92ODp9JQYXpdM9LdwREDi6szFtDT
the phone still has nothing to be excited about.
Really
Free Calls and video conferencing via bbm
Have you ever owned a bb?
Blackberries have traditionally done well in dominica due to the fact that we’ve only had 2g networks, gps navigation here is almost non existent and the people who can afford the Iphone 5 and samsung Galaxy siii have no idea how to use them
If lime launches its 4g network in collaboration with this phone (alot of people may prefer the q10 for the physical keyboard) then they may actually do well. But that’s only if the price is welcoming
It is actually on par and better in some cases than it’s counterpart
The problem is It doesn’t vastly surpass them
for your information free mind i have a blackberrry and actually going to give it away for a galaxy. compare the galaxy and iphone to this new blackberry and the blackberry is basically empty. go to gsmarena.com and compare them you will be shocked to see how empty this new bb is.
GSMarena hasn’t tested the bb
And on their website information is still missing
Evidenced by the fact that the test section is empty
If your upgrading to an siii or and iphone 5 by all means because the current crop of bb’s are in no way comparable. This phone however is very much comparable and call me old fashioned but I very much enjoy using bbm rather than whatsapp or normal texting
Check the specs. Matching up nicely to Samsung and iPhone. But still, they all cost way to much
excuse me,but those blackberry rein anymore?
*Does* and *reign*…For someone who can afford what ‘Iphone/Galaxy/HTC’…shouldn’t you know the difference?
price $2,500?
not a bad price at all. if you were to buy an unlocked iphone it will cost more.
