hey guys it's Brian Bennett for cnet.com and right now we have got our hands on the brand new BlackBerry z30 now this device hasn't actually shipped it but it should be available for the holiday season it's going to be shipping probably in a few weeks in the UK and the Middle East so what's really interesting about the z30 is that it has a very large 5 inch Super AMOLED at 720p HD resolution screen here and that's a very big screen for a blackberry right now most Android devices support that or have this kind of screen but blackberry is now taking steps into that big screen market what's really cool is the z30 has a blackberry 10.2 the latest version of the BlackBerry 10 OS and what's really important on here is the BlackBerry hub which has been retweet and enhance it's now called the priority hub and so what it does is it'll put your messages from across all different social media platforms or email your texts bbm all that stuff and we'll kind of see what you're looking at who you're talking to and raise all your messages that are more important up on the front so you can see you know exactly who you want to talk to you first and you don't have to no waste time just you know looking at spam and all that kind of stuff so right now we're looking at this blackberry z30 which actually has this case here which is an add-on accessory it's not gonna actually ship with this so it looks a little thicker but as you can see it's it's relatively thin and it has such a massive display and it's very responsive very quick I believe it has a dual-core s4 pro processor Snapdragon that's what I'm thinking and it's very responsive as most of the apps you're looking for though unfortunately BlackBerry 10 has been devoid of a lot of major apps that you know people can enjoy on Android or iOS but they're trying to change that by bringing in support for Android officially and some of their apps to port over to the device so there you have it folks we just took a first look at the BlackBerry z30 now this device does not have a price officially announced yet but hopefully it'll be around maybe 199 or 250 somewhere in there and it's going to be shipping within the next few weeks in the UK and the Middle East first and hopefully it'll be brought over to other additional markets like the US I'm Brian Bennet for cnet.com
