The casing doesn't look nothing like a iPhone
I'd say it looks more like a Motorola

The OS looks similar to Android !

Here we go again

Look,if Apple try to sue BB over this then they are stupid. All that is similar is the curves and so what loads of phones have curves. Since when did Apple invent curved edges??

The BB has no home key,the earpiece and front camera are different as are the sides and back. Am sorry but if Apple does this then they are digging their grave.

Sean,

I have to agree. I like iOS and it has served me, for the most part quite well over the last 1.5yrs.

Do we really even need another lawsuit type thread like this?! Really? I detest these news so much that even the conversations begin to revolve on verbatim of previous events/threads. Similarities stop right at the big brazen logo "BlackBerry" on the front. I'm not sure how some would say "it looks cheap" - if not seen in person (I haven't yet), but reviewers on large tech sites (bgr/verge/etc) state its build is solid even for use of non metal parts in the Z10, the Q10 does have a black metal ring like the 9900).

oh well been there done that - looking forward to the z10.

I handled the phone in black and white variations yesterday in CPW. Its much larger than it looks in pictures.

It did feel cheap and not very well built. To me anyway. I didnt like the leather back one bit.

I played with one in Phones4U yesterday too. I couldn't get the screen to react. Anyway it was so well strapped to the wall I couldn't get a feel of how it felt. I actually prefer the Q10 with the keyboard with that 3.1 inch 720x720 screen

Well, there is a similarity in terms of design. Look at the black bands that separate the aluminium on IP5. And now make abstraction of display, earpiece, camera on both.

PS: I myself do not consider this blackberry a copycat, just wanted to point that seeing front of this BB reminded me of the back of IP5. No need to make me blind if you can't see a similarity (even little) between 2 objects. How ironic..
