RIM's New Blackberry 10 Superphone
 

Exclusive: First Image of a BlackBerry 10 Superphone!!


Rumors has it that the design went from

To This
http://cdn.crackberry.com/sites/crac...Smartphone.jpg

Its dubbed "London" for the UK market and "Laguna" and "Lisbon" for the US market


Can this be the phone that can bring RIM back to life?
Looks super sexy...
If RIM could make the latter to look like this in the final production, I may switch to BB, but BBX OS may not be so good...
But with no physical keyboard or trackpad, doesnt seem like a BB trademark phone anymore..

I like blackberries for their keyboard lol, ill sit this one out, owned a curve, 9000, 9700, 9800 and now the 9900, no thanks to this, hopefully they can come up with something as nice but with a keyboard :)

they will have this, a new slider, and a new qwerty bold coming within the next year and a bit all running top shelf bits and BB10.

they had to develop this phone because consumers are in love with that media/touch style now with android and apple. they need a top of the line touch screen phone to compete.

the QNX based OS should be good.

Sorry but it looks ugly.
Bring out the qwerty!!

The biggest reason I've heard people hang on to their Blackberries is the tactile keyboard. Any RIM thought that it would be a good idea to remove it?

They should call the new phone the Blackberry Miracle, cause that's what they need it to be to have a hope of surviving..

I need a QWERTY touchscreen Bold running the new QNX...

D.W. thats on the way too ;) Its codenamed Blackberry Nevada (physical QWERTY, touch screen, BBOS 10 device)

hopefully before the end of this year but I highly doubt it especially since this long ass thing is coming out sometime around october :(

Watch Apple sue them for "Copying" the iPhone design if this gets popular. LOL

How is QNX anyway? Does it crash as often as their current BB6 and BB7 lineup? LOL.

It would be nice if the keyboard is on the left or right side.

in 3 months of fairly heavy use my QNX playbook has crashed exactly 0 times. ive never had to use the power button other than the initial turn on. i do restart it from time to time tho. its basically never even had trouble loading anything even running multiple apps. certain web pages load a little slow but i attribute that more to my bullshit wifi than the device itself. if the phones run as smooth as the playbook they are going to be a treat.

and the playbook is dual core 1ghz. the phones are going to be dual core 1.5ghz. speed shouldnt be a problem at all.

I can pretty much testify to this. Pretty much. The playbook OS is quite smooth and they can handle pages with heavy contents like images and vids. The gesture system is quite clever. And multitasking is very good (I can open 2 browsers, the native one and the one on bridge).

The wifi is bullshit though, it's been dropping every 5-10 minutes to the point it's unusable. Pretty much shelved it until they fix it. I dug out my gf's 1001 year old Acer netbook and start using it as a substitute. Also the lack of a certain video/sound codec is a let down.

I have had a few crashes but nothing major.

that looks reeeeeeeeeeetarded. the torch weight is already unbalanced when you slide it up and now their gonna make it even longer hahaha :fuckthatshit:

Nlkko 02-02-2012 12:10 AM

^They don't have a keyboard, just your average hipster touch phone. :troll:

StylinRed 02-02-2012 12:47 AM

they curved the edges more i see

i liked the original leak version more but i remember ppl hated it this one isnt bad at all

doesn't look like they care about the camera though (being so thin i suppose they cant anyway)


wonder if they're going to announce at MWC?

willystyle 02-02-2012 03:23 AM

The fact that BB10 will support Android Apps makes it that much more appealing.

Blackberry Empathy Concept Phone by Kiki Tang & Daniel Yoon » Yanko Design
this would be nice

Recon604 02-05-2012 09:26 PM

bb decided to not make tat prototype device, "BB Milan"

kwy 02-05-2012 09:34 PM

Don't whine if this model doesn't have a keyboard...it's not like RIM is stopping production of every other one of their phones. RIM is a sinking ship, they need something, anything to compete and make some sort of profit to please the shareholders.

Its not completely native. Still based on the runtime and will require developers to port their apps as well as remove all references to android and market. Still I guess it's in the right direction.

Nabatron 02-07-2012 11:31 PM

as long as the bring a shitload more apps and refine the os things should be good

Really? So it's like what WP7 is doing then. Screw it, I'm hopping on WP7 for my next phone.

Will Apple really continue doing that? I thought that whole fiasco stopped since Steve Jobs is dead!

With or without Steve Jobs the lawsuits will still come.
