Just got one yesterday, very nice Blackberry.
Pros:
*Feels very well built (compared to Z10)
*AMOLED screen high quality
*Long battery life
*Wifi direct, Miracast
*HDMI out
*USB OTG
*BB10 is a very nice fast and stable OS
*MicroSD slot
Cons:
*Camera is just 8 Mpx and not too good in night time.
*Battery cannot be replaced
*App selection (this can be fixed by installing any android APK directly in the machine or installing the Amazon Appstore and then installing apps that way).

Yes, I am still getting use to the onscreen keyboard, coming from the Q10.

I remember walking into the shop a while back and the sales person suggested that I take the S4 when I was looking at both the Z30 and Q10. I smiled at him and showed him my then phone- a Samsung S4.
I told him I hated the phone and Android was a mess that I couldn't take it anymore. At one point I considered taking the Z but my addiction to the QWERTY keypad wouldn't let me. At the end of it all I am very happy with my Q10.
@fbloise
How do the batteries compared considering the small screen of the Q and the larger Z screen with its bigger battery?

@Dups, Fbloise forgot to add most heavy, and I mean HEAVY users (using EVERYTHING) get over 24hrs+ use on ONE-FULL-CHARGE!
Another thing to mention is "USB OTG" also charges! Many are reporting charging Androids/iPhones doing the same thing.
Going to be upgrading to this in a few weeks - work is providing the line and the Z30 as a free HUP for new provider transitioning.
Very excited and will be looking to upgrade my 64GB MicroSD card.

You probably have had all of the BB10 phones, bar the Q5, and now you are going to get the Z30. I find that crazy, man
I would like your impression of that phone.
Anyway, I don't see myself coming over here anymore. The day Ericsson and Sony Ericsson died was the day I lost interest in esato. Sony has some really nice phones but Android is not my thing
I'LL BE SEEING YOU OVER AT CRACKBERRY. By the way, I am mod9 over there.[ This Message was edited by: Dups! on 2014-04-21 06:46 ]

i'm FBLOISE there
I'm very active in that forum (thanks to the CB10 app). Guys, i don't know what might be the cause but my Z30 battery doesnt last more than 14-16 hours. I think is some rogue android app sucking power in the background. Now, mind i have the same setup in the Q10 and get a way better battery life, both in 4G, brightness 50%, using a full black wallpaper (to aid the AMOLED consumption)
Not sure. any guesses?
