I've seen it with my classmate, looks cool, and sideloading Android apps is cool.. Multitasking is cool, but I'd rather keep my N9 ;)

Why it should be "better" when buying this? These devices have its own cons and pros. I will keep my N950 while trying other devices.

To some extend it is better, the devs here knows the system better than me, hardware wise, it can change battery and have sd slot.

Buying other devices doesn't mean leaving N9 or that device is better than N9, lot people here have multiple devices.

Red Blackberry Z10 looked so sexy ;)

If a phone is sexy in your eyes makes me a little puzzled about your sexual orientation ;)

It depends what you want. To me, it is better because:
1) UI super smooth. App launch fast.
2) Very good browser (UI not so good...)
3) Screen is of good size and decent resolution.
4) Much stronger PIM and Email.
5) More apps.
6) Better OS support (10.0.10 is out, and 10.1 is rumored to come in March/April)

I still like N9 and think its swipe UI is still the best thought-out so far, but ultimately the lack of Nokia kills it:
1) UI too slow at times. FasterN9 and overclocking help but cannot hide the slow GPU.
2) Browser starts to stutter when browsing some of the newer html5 sites.
4) Fenix(Email) is crap, everyone knows it.
5) Decent app for a dead platform, but few new apps are being developed since developers shifted to BB10 or Jolla.
6) Dead platform....

Exactly the same feeling. Plus changable battery and sd card expansion.

I still need one, the previous offer was too expensive.

Got mine, the red looks really great in person :) Make me regret giving up the 2nd dev alpha from Qt porting program. Hope you find one with a reasonable price soon! (Seems some Z10 locks its APN setting even though the phone is unlocked. So some devs are already talking about selling LE to get a trully unlocked Z10 elsewhere)

Congrats!! So happy for you!!

Is the red Z10 APN locked? If it is then its unusable then. :( Which operator does it lock to?

I heard for North American version, APN setting is not editable and is determined by the sim card you put in. So some people with MVNO get wrong APN and are forced to switch service plan.
