What is an unlocked phone?An unlocked phone is a device that is not bound to any carrier or plan. It allows you to choose your phone first and your carrier second. Upon selecting a plan, simply insert the carrier's SIM card into the phone and you're ready to go. If you decide you want to change carriers down the road or want to take an international trip, it's as simple as replacing your existing SIM card with a new SIM and activating your new plan. |
What are the benefits of an unlocked phone?Freedom: Choose the carrier with the best service or price. If you find a better deal later, you have the ability to change to a different carrier. Travel: Take your phone internationally and use the carrier of your choice. It's as easy as inserting an active SIM card. Selection: Choose the phone with the features you want, whether or not your carrier sells it, and get more service options without a contract. |
How do I set up my unlocked phone?The first thing you’ll need is a SIM card for your desired carrier. When activated, the SIM card will let your phone connect to your carrier’s network. If you decide to upgrade to a newer unlocked phone in the future, you can easily remove the SIM card from your old phone and put it in your new phone—just make sure you get the right size of SIM card (nano, micro, or standard) for your phone. If you want to use your phone while traveling internationally, you can easily buy a SIM card for a carrier that operates where you’re traveling. As long as it’s activated, you can just swap SIM cards when you arrive at your destination. |

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
After weeks of use, here is what I gather for both major Pros and Cons.
Pros:
1. OS - The new Hub, Peek and Flow are superbly implemented. It may feel weird at first, but it takes no time for me to master my phone. The phone runs fast and doesn't get hot under heavy uses. It gets slightly warm though on the back.
2. Browser - This is the fastest I have seen till date. It has flash player which you can enable or disable. With my unlimited 4G data, I have been able to watch series or movies from HBO GO in HD quality! It is a little bit difficult to move through the web, but doable.
3. Look and Feel - This can be subjective. I personally feel that it looks modern, light and has very sleek slim profile.
4. Quality - It is made of mostly plastic, which doesn't bother me. Though the plastic material doesn't feel cheap when hold in my hands. The screen resolution is the best in the market right now. However, the color saturation, contrast, etc may not be the best. Though I don't think human eyes can perceive any significant difference.
5. Virtual Keyboard - I can't believe that I could end up liking the phone as I tried iPhone since those old days. I couldn't get myself to use it even when I tried the newer one like 4S or 5. Even on the new Android, I got frustrated all the time using its virtual keyboard.
Z10 keyboard software is the best right now in the market largely due to its words auto correction ability. I just couldn't believe that I can type almost as fast with hardly any mistakes with Z10 virtual keyboard. The word flicking feature is such an icing on the cake!
6. Removable back cover - Well, most of these days modern touch screen smart phone doesn't have this. With Z10, you have option to use a back up battery when you need it. In addition, you could use up to 64GB sd memory card though you will need to set up the card in a correct way before Z10 will accept the card. Otherwise, by default Z10 will take up to 32GB sd memory card.
7. Call quality and Reception - Well, the most important feature about the phone is to make and receive calls! So far the calls have been very loud and clear. It is easy to use. A few things I don't like is that I can't seem to be able to copy number from the web and paste it onto call window to make a call! Also, I do hope that TMO bring OS update to add WiFi calling features soon.....
There are more, but I should move on...
Cons:
1. Apps - Not much there. But I only a short list, which is Skype, Instagram, Watch ESPN and HBO GO. Yes, on EPSN and HBO GO, I can use desktop web browser and make it work. However, having these apps would make my life a lot easier. Then I can stop borrowing my wife iPhone from time to time to watch sport games :-)
2. Customization - The notable one is notifications. With older Blackberry, you could set a profile where your ringtone for phone and/or SMS, BBM, etc will ring at different level. That is gone! Also, there is a slight glitch where when I set my phone to "Phone Call Only" it stops my virtual keyboard sound. Sometimes it does, sometimes not. Well, in short, I can do way more on this notifications customization with my older Blackberry than my new Z10. Perhaps there will be an app for that!!!
3. Email - This supposes to be the strongest feature of any Blackberry devices. However, gone is the ability to store emails on your device more than 30days - what gives!
Yes, you can search the server on certain email protocols, but I know many colleges who won't use Z10 because of this. Well, they love to keep email on their phones 2-3 years way back.
I know that this 30 days email sync is similar to many other phone platforms, but why removing one of its strongest features! I do hope that it will be fixed with OS update to be able to archive email on device of memory cards soon.
In summary, I highly recommend the phone if you aren't rely heavily on apps.
The battery is not the best thing, but is on par with the likes in the market - but with ability to swap out a back up battery.
You should find it very easy to learn and master this phone in less than a week.
I am sure though that given the time, apps can only improve as user base grows. Well, Black is Back!
Physically: The phone feels great in the hand, with a textured back door that's inviting to touch. The screen display is beautiful and excellent quality. I've dropped the phone more than a few times on hard surfaces and still no cracks. Also, even though I have a privacy screen on my phone, I still get ooo's and ahhh's when showing pictures or video to others. Two cameras (front/back) come in handy and I've taken some awesome shots from several trips and events. There's also a standard mini-USB port for charging, mini-HDMI port which works perfectly with a standard HDMI to mini-HDMI cable. One other major point to note is the microSD (extra memory) slot. In the phone specs, it says up to 32gb capacity, but I can confirm since day one, I've been able to use a 64gb microSD. With the release of upcoming OS updates, this has been tested with a 128gb microSD.
Internally: (understand I'm a bit more techhy than average user). When switching from other phones or even old BB devices, be aware that this new user interface is different but more intuitive. In the first 24-48 hours, you'll be trying to understand how everything works, so don't let it frustrate you. Hearing about hub and flow doesn't truly make sense until you've got the phone set up with your email and social accounts. Then you realize just how beautiful and clean and easy this is to use. Lots of customizable features and options that can help save or drain your battery depending on your personal use. With the latest OS update (10.3...), you will have access to the Amazon App Store as well as Blackberry World (BB's app store). One point of interest is that this Blackberry OS is capable of running Android apps and games as it has technical capabilities to do so. For the curious folks that believe they'll miss their Android apps and games, not true. Crackberry.com has plenty of instructional documents as does Youtube on how to sideload. I personally sideloaded an app called Snap that actually gives me access to the Google store right from my Z10. I can download apps on the go. Also, note that due to Blackberry data packaging technology, you'll consume less data overall compared to other brands. BBM (BlackBerry Messenger) that you've known or heard of, is now even better with voice calling and video calling embedded, plus its available on other platforms. Last but not least, the security that Blackberry is know for is still the best there in the business.
Next to the security, BBM, and fluidity of the device, my favorite feature has to be the ability to upload/download directly to my pc from anywhere. I have cloud storage for when/if I need it, but for true security, I can transfer directly between my Z10 and my pc (or any pc I authorize) securely.
Cons: Every once in a while an app may crash but these are typically Android apps, but wait a few seconds and you're able to restart the app w/o rebooting the phone completely.
Honestly, the biggest issue is not with the phone itself, it's the carriers in the US not rolling out OS updates timely. The rest of the world where Blackberry is thriving receives regular timely updates, while the US carriers lag far behind. This is where Crackberry.com and reading comprehension comes in handy. With a little reading, this issue can easily be overcome by updating the OS using a non-US carrier update. Haven't found any issues doing beyond perhaps having a foreign carrier icon appear in my apps which can easily be deleted. All other functions work perfect.
Overall from day one this phone was a good start for the new line of Blackberries, but with each OS update, this phone has become AWESOME! The best part is that there is still so much more potential for this phone to grow and do even more. This phone is a unrecognized diamond.
