The all-touch BlackBerry Z30 is the new flagship smartphone from BlackBerry and features a 5-inch display, 2880 mAh battery, and the latest version 10.2 of the BlackBerry 10 operating system.
Available in Singapore from 10 October at S$828 (without contract).
BlackBerry’s new flagship: Z30 with 5-inch SuperAMOLED display, 1280 x 720 resolution at 295ppi.
Key new features of the BlackBerry Z30 include the BlackBerry Priority Hub, which can learn what conversations and people are important to you – making it fast and easy to find the messages and information you need.
Hands-on
I tried out the BlackBerry Z30 and found the bigger screen useful in digesting information and browsing the Web.
The BlackBerry 10 interface made it useful to interact with the phone, offering one-swipe access to the most commonly needed information, such as notifications, messages, settings and app switching – making multi-tasking easy to get round.
Version 10.2 of BlackBerry 10 OS makes things even more efficient by prioritising conversations and notifications in the Priority Hub, and allowing previews of messages as it arrives from within any other apps, and even immediate replying to BBM messages again within other apps.
The BlackBerry 10 OS version 10.2 will be made available for the BlackBerry Z10 as well.
Physically, the BlackBerry Z30 measures 140.7 x 72 x 9.4 mm and weighs 170g.
BlackBerry Natural Sound creates an immersive experience for music, videos, apps and games, and makes BBM Video chats sound more natural and realistic, with nuances and variations in tone clearly audible.
With the largest battery ever on a BlackBerry smartphone, you can get up to 25 hours of mixed use, and BlackBerry’s new antenna technology dynamically tunes reception to give better connectivity in low signal areas, and improves data transfer speeds and reduces dropped calls.
Finally, the device comes with BlackBerry 10 OS version 10.2, which includes hundreds of refinements plus many new features that help the user get more productive.
The BlackBerry Z30 comes with a 5-inch Super AMOLED display, 1280 x 720 resolution at 295ppi.
