ones favourite the long waited Smartphone, Blackberry Z10 and its rival Samsung
Galaxy S4.
So Blackberry is not
going down without a fight, since it has been in the news recently for not the
right reasons. But for its competition with apple iPhone and android, a once-dominating
Smartphone manufacturer has seen its stock sink in past recent years. Could
this e the return of Blackberry with its newly launched Smartphone Z10?
So we at SL we went out
to search the Lowdown on the Blackberry Z10
Z10 Spec.

The excellent messaging centre is complemented by the Z10's impressive keyboard. The accurate and responsive touch screen makes it easy to hit the right key, and there's no discernible lag between pressing a key and the phone responding. It's one of the best keyboards we've used so far.
SCREEN
The handset completed
the Sun spider JavaScript benchmark in 1,724ms, which is around average. It
certainly didn’t have any problems rendering web pages quickly, but we noticed
an occasional stutter when zoomed in and panning around pages as the browser
rendered images. The Z10 has a 1,280x768-pixel screen, which is unusual compared to the 1,280x720-pixel displays we're used to seeing among Android Smartphone.
HOME SCREEN
Shows your currently-running apps as a series of cards, Palm OS-styleBlackBerry 10 also has a standard app tray containing several screens of icons, which you can rearrange by long-pressing and dragging apps to where you want them.
NON-SLIP RUBBER BACK
Is a winner however, it feels like it would survive plenty of abuse. There's no flex at all in the body, and the rubber rear means you're unlikely to drop it. on the hand...
SAMSUNG GALAXY S4
We
couldn’t get a chance to play with the Galaxy S4 so far, we went online and get
some reviews for you. Early indications are that this is going to be a superb
handset. S4 faces tough competition from its Android rivals and whatever Apple
plans to release so far, but interest and demand for the phone remain high. As
soon as we have our hands on a finished model, we'll bring you an up-to-date
review.
S4
After
months of speculation, the Samsung Galaxy S4 has finally been unveiled. With a
larger screen, faster process and range of new features, it's the company's new
flagship smartphone.As such, it's got more power and more up-to-date features than the iPhone 5 and pre-empts the upcoming iPhone 5S. We are giving the lowdown on the phone and help us find out if it matches up to the hype.
SIZE
Galaxy S4 looks similar to the Samsung Galaxy S3, and it’s built on that phone's looks. The Galaxy S4 is a little bigger, thanks to its 4.99in screen, but not as much as you might think: at 136.6x69.8x7.9mm, it's roughly as wide as the S3, but around 5mm longer, and around 1mm slimmer. The result is the Galaxy S4 feels good in the hand and every bit as comfortable to hold as the S3. There are a few notable changes between the phones' designs, including a metallic banding running around the edge of the Galaxy S4.
Backside-illuminated (BSI)
It has a Backside-illuminated (BSI) sensor for better low-light sensitivity; the camera has been upgraded to a 13-megapixel model although there's also a flash for when it's really dark.
It’s worth noting that you can't directly compare the Galaxy S4 to LCD-based Full HD handsets, this is because Samsung continues to use a Super AMOLED display with a PenTile pixel arrangement.
