30 Days with my Z10

So I got my Z10 a month ago :dancing: and I knew there was a price to pay for being an early adopter. After suffering, like most, syncing with Link or trying to move my data from my old blackberry (9780) to my Z10, I finally settled into the thought that all frustrating glitches will get ironed out with upcoming firmware updates and that eventually, Blackberry Link will work like it should (even on a mac). This was a small price to pay for having this amazing phone.
It's 2 firmware updates and one month later and I'm realizing that the price I'm paying is bigger than I first assumed. The more I used the phone, the more the UI just felt extremely counter-intuitive. I got exposed to options that I no longer had and 'compound glitches' that appear only when I did things in a certain order.

Here are some of my unfortunate discoveries/frustrations:

  • The 'Return' key disappears from the keypad when replying to a message.
  • No Delete button in the dialpad during a call.
  • You cannot send an SMS from contacts directly.
  • You cannot edit a contact directly from the dialed list or contacts tab.
  • No quick way to get the bottom or top of a list (like 't' and 'b').
  • Remember doesn't have an alarm.
  • Text selection is a b!@($*. If you tap anywhere inside the selection circle it just moves the cursor one character in the direction of the tap.
  • Backspace continues to erase forwards as soon as it's done erasing backwards.
  • Extremely annoying disappearing-reappearing keypad during text selection/editing.
  • No screen capture.
  • No visual signifier for refreshing.
  • No option to SMS a number directly from received calls or hub if it is not in the contact list.
  • No option to paste a number in the dial-pad.
  • Keypad does not push up the options, it hides them.
  • BBM does not recognize phone numbers.
  • No customizable dock.


I assumed, when I first got the Z10 that I would have a hard time going back to my old blackberry. Sadly, to date I still find the 9780 has a more intuitive user inter-face.
