I\u2019m currently getting the opportunity to play around with the new BlackBerry Z10! This is my first BlackBerry,\u00a0and\u00a0I\u2019m\u00a0still\u00a0figuring out how to\u00a0navigate\u00a0and\u00a0generally testing it out. \u00a0I would like to both share and highlight some cool features that\u00a0have\u00a0impressed\u00a0me so far.<\/p>\n

Firstly, if you\u2019ve used a BlackBerry before you might be dismissive of a new version\u2014don\u2019t be! \u00a0The Z10 is completely redesigned and reinvented. \u00a0The newly engineered platform is like nothing a BlackBerry user\u2014or anyone else, for that matter\u2014has seen or used before. \u00a0This new mobile phone experience is faster, smarter, better, more! \u00a0This BlackBerry continuously learns how you use the phone and adapts along with your continued use.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s something I know my followers will like: \u00a0The Z10 has a \u201csharing framework\u201d that can be accessed by any app, making it easy and super fast to share something with any of your contacts. \u00a0You don\u2019t even have to leave the app! The Z10 does it all from the apps\u2019 menu, so it\u2019s the same across the entire platform.<\/p>\n

My favorite feature so far is the\u00a0touchscreen\u00a0keyboard that builds a complete library of the words I use all the time, then it provides me a list when I type! \u00a0I can just quickly add the next word in place, and it actually shows the word flying across the\u00a0touchscreen. \u00a0The best thing about it is that you can turn it off and on easily, both the list and the flying animation.<\/p>\n

Ever have that great group shot, but someone has their eyes closed? \u00a0Happens all the time, right? \u00a0Not with the BlackBerry Z10: one of their new camera features is something called Time Shift, which allows you to adjust each subject\u2019s face individually to get the best picture possible. \u00a0You all know how many group shots I take\u2014this is like a magic wand for me!<\/p>\n

Jean Newman\u00a0Glock<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0recently purchased a Samsung GALAXY camera<\/strong> <\/a>after reading my blog post about it, and may be interested in the BlackBerry Z10 as she travels a lot internationally. \u00a0If you want more information about the Z10\u2019s suitability for international use, please read\u00a0this article<\/a>\u2014make sure you can make international calls before buying.<\/p>\n

But don\u2019t just take my word for how awesome this phone is\u2014here\u2019s a video guide recap for the BlackBerry Z10 from \u00a0the one-day Verizon conference I attended last week. \u00a0In the video, you can hear how impressed the audience was by some of the\u00a0smartphone\u2019s\u00a0exciting features as the BlackBerry representative demonstrated the Z10\u2019s coolest features abilities.<\/p>\n

If you thought BlackBerry\u00a0smartphones\u00a0were just for business types, this Z10 should change your mind. \u00a0Why not check it out for yourself? \u00a0At the rate new technology is advancing, we owe it to ourselves to use the best gear on the market to make our lives easier.<\/p>\n
